Pre-release

Welcome to WLED 0.14.0-b3 "Hoshi"!

⚠️ There is currently a safety issue in 0.14.0-b3 (and recent nightlies) causing the software auto brightness limiter to not apply correctly (#3264)
I highly recommend rolling-back to b1 on setups that require the ABL to not exceed PSU/wiring current limits.
A new beta will be released soon after the issue is fixed.

If you saw a shooting star, what would you wish for?

This version's highlights are (in addition to 2D support and more already present in b1)

  • Various new 2D effects (Soap / Octopus / Waving cell)
  • Segment sets
  • Improved ESP32 variant (S2/C3/S3) support
  • Half a years worth of improvements and fixes!

Why doesn't Blynk work?

The servers for the legacy Blynk app are shutting down in a week. Therefore it is no longer included in the default build.

  • Fixed flickering
  • Fixed boot issues on new installs
  • Added support for LPD6803

See the changelog for a complete list of changes!

Update Notice

The new default ESP32 partition layout (1MB FS) is incompatible with the filesystem partition of the previous layout (1.5MB FS).
Please note that config and presets will be wiped upon updating an ESP32 from 0.13.0-b4 or earlier to 0.13.3 via USB or the web installer.
ESP32 OTA updates and all ESP8266 update methods are unaffected , your data will be kept when doing a wireless update.

Why doesn't Blynk work?

New signups for the legacy Blynk app are closed and not a lot of you are using it.
My benchmarks have shown that on the Ethernet build for ESP32, with huge LED counts, the framerate is improved when it is not compiled in.
If you need it, don't worry, as you can still compile it in!
