I fried the first led of my (one and only) 16x16 serpentine matrix. I’ve no idea why that happened, but it did. Unfortunately I have no spare WS2812B arround. So I soldered the datawire to the 2nd led (which was a nightmare on these thin flexible plasic “pcb”). Anyway, now the controller speaks again to the rest of the leds.
Problem: When calling FastLED.show I need to manage to start writing led data beginning at the 2nd led. Sounds easy, just move the content of the framebuffer by 1 led. But if I touch the leds CRGB inbetween all my effects don’t work properly anymore.
So I really need to output the framebuffer as it is - just skipping led nr. 1 and beginning with led nr. 2.
It might sound stupid, but I have no idea how to do that…
Any thoughts about a solution or a clever work arround?
