Holiday lighting I/O
Seasonal and holiday lighting attaches to the same show graph as Action Deck and cartwall SFX. Drive RGB(W) endpoints and show-protocol consumers from the cues your crew already runs.
Use-case story: Holiday & seasonal lighting.
Reference: I/O. Guided path: Getting Started · 02 I/O connect.
Twinkly + WLED — realtime RGB(W) endpoints
Twinkly and WLED are first-class realtime RGB(W) endpoints controlled from the show.
| You can | Detail |
|---|---|
| Name both together | Say Twinkly and WLED — the pair is the product story. |
| Drive endpoints from the graph | Cues, automation, Action Deck, OSC / HTTP / MCP / CLI. |
| See them on Overview | I/O strip when online; configure under I/O. |
Endpoint control is show-graph RGB(W) — cues and looks you own from Action Deck, automation, and OSC / HTTP / MCP / CLI.
Holiday rooms still run cartwall SFX and GO / STOP on the same graph — lights are endpoints on that graph.
Falcon Player / xLights — Art-Net + sACN
Falcon Player (FPP) and xLights stay reachable over Art-Net and sACN.
- Bring universes online under I/O when those consumers need pixels or props from the same show timing as Action Deck cues.
- Same show clock as the rest of the graph — works via Art-Net / sACN from BPShowServer.
Custom bridges (Plugin Builder)
Need a Light-O-Rama bridge (or another custom controller path)?
- Open AI → Plugin Builder (
/plugin-builder). - Ask AI to script the bridge for your site.
- Review and own the result under Automation.
Twinkly + WLED stay first-class RGB(W) in I/O; Plugin Builder is how you extend the graph when you need a custom path. Details: AI · Plugin Builder.
Suggested connect order
- Confirm UI session on Overview.
- Under I/O, attach Twinkly and WLED as realtime RGB(W) endpoints when the room needs them.
- Optionally enable Art-Net / sACN for Falcon Player / xLights consumers.
- Bind cues from Control / Action Deck or Automation — same graph as cartwall SFX → network audio device.
- Walk the sample path at Blue Lamp Theater when learning: Getting Started.
