Raspberry Pi Gifs

Post by brockr1993 »

I have a neopixel strip with a 74AHCT125 level converter chip and a raspberry pi 3b+. I have the strip laid out in a 48x30 matrix in a zigzag orientation. I am trying to find out how to put gifs onto the display. I
have found the following website to display images, but can't find a code for gifs. Any help would be great.

@brockr1993,

We don't have any formal guides on using our general purpose NeoPixel strips for animated GIFs.

Since you are using a Raspberry Pi I would try to make Hzerller's rpi-rgb-led-matrix work.

Utilities
The utils directory is meant for ready utilities to show images or animated gifs or videos. Read the README there for instructions how to compile.
