WARNING:
This version includes binaries for ESP8266 which feature double CPU clock frequency (160MHz) distinguished by the _160 name suffix. Although it has been tested on many variants of ESP8266 there may be devices that do not support overclocking the CPU. If your device is in places hard to reach or difficult to flash DO NOT use these binaries unless you test them on a similar device first. And even then there are no guarantees that a particular device will run correctly with overclocked CPU.
In case you do update with 160MHz version and your device fails to boot or operates incorrectly you may need to connect it to a computer and flash it serially using USB connection. Please erase flash prior to doing so.
A huge thank you to the WLED community - to everyone who has contributed to development, documentation and testing, and to all early adopters who provided lots of feedback and sparked many discussions on how to improve things. You all made WLED better and made this version happen! ❤️

Debug Builds
Debug builds are providing additional diagnostic outputs when connected to a serial monitor by USB.
You can find a few generic debug builds here: https://github.com/srg74/WLED-wemos-shield/tree/master/resources/Firmware/%40Aircoookie/Latest/Debug_builds
How to get a stack dump (crash log with backtrace)
You might be asked for a crash report (backtrace showing the function that crashed) using a debug build. This is only possible when self-compiling WLED in the VSCode+platformio development environment.
In a nutshell, this is what you should do:
- Find the build environment you want, like env:esp32dev_audioreactive,
- add
-DWLED_DEBUGto build_flags, then click File -> Save All - You need to connect your board via USB. OTA is not possible in this case.
- build and upload from the VSCode IDE (don't upload using other flashing tools).
- watch the output in the PlatformIO Serial Monitor panel; this should help to better understand what is the problem.
