Just a bump to make sure people know that MultiPlay has a forum these days: https://da-share.com/forum/Although the v3 releases are still marked as beta, it's being used by a lot of people now.New features and improvements are being done all the time.

There are W+WW WS2811 strips on AliExpress, but no string types that I could see.

If you want something finer, look at the new WS2811 "seed" nodes. They can be got with pixel spacings from 5cm (2") to 30cm (12") and with clear, green or black wires. They are still RGB of course, with no specific WW element..

Maybe when they say "my time is more valuable than doing that" they're not talking about money? Maybe it's about lifestyle, peace of mind or abilities. I mean I *could* paint my house, but I never would because I simply don't like painting.

The instructions do say Bluetooth, but I suspect that the range will be less than you think / hoped especially indoors.

Say what???? I think you're confusing stereo -> mono and stereo -> balanced input. The later will cause cancellation. The former does not.

The signal from the headphone output is roughly in the range you need, so the weak sound must be an issue with the adapters / cable.Maybe post a picture of what you're using.

What size is the wiring from the power supplies to the controller? For 15A it should be a minimum of 1.5mm CSA ( 15AWG ).

You won't be wanting to pull much current down the CAT5 cables. Using it for signalling with the actual LED switching at the end point would be ok.If it were me, I'd also design it in a way that causes no damage (to the light system or Ethernet devices) if plugged into the wrong place. It will...

Maybe a bad (or incorrectly wired) CAT5 cable?

My audio scheduler program can play files at specific times of day.https://www.da-share.com/software/audio-scheduler/It's free and runs on a PC.

Hopefully the new version 3 (available to beta test) will be more to you liking. :)

Maybe use an IP address scanner on your PC to see what IP addresses are in use on the LAN and eliminate the ones you know are not it?

The Australian one is not current. We're the same as Europe / UK now as far as I know.

If there were interest I could look into writing something. I'd have to look into the current code and see what's possible.
