NLED Live Patcher Software

This software application is a work in prgoress. The software allows various LED matrix control softwares to have their serial port data streams intercepted and a pixel patch or pixel mapping applied to it. This allows many different applications that output square/rectangular data to work with odd-shaped LED matrices of all kinds.

Software(such as the third-pary software Glediator or Jinx) outputs to a virtual serial port(com0com for example) and this small processing app intercepts the incoming data from that serial port. And converts it into patched/mapped data stream, then sends it to the hardware interface device(FTDI, NLED controller, etc) that controls the LED pixels.

Now supports File Recording Mode, writes the serial port output from other software sources and writes the values to a text file.

THIS SOFTWARE IS NEW AND NOT THOURGHLY TESTED. PLEASE CONTACT WITH ANY BUGS, COMMENTS, OR FEATURE REQUESTS.

1/29/2018: A few reports of native USB Arduinos(those without external USB-to-serial ICs such as FTDI) not working with this software. Currently it is thought to be the Arduino USB stack not being able to handle the data throughput produced by the software. I am unfamiliar with Atmel and their USB functions, if anyone has any input and thoughts please let us know. Contact Us
