Content Provider coyo5050 Posted April 12, 2016 Content Provider Share Posted April 12, 2016 I seem to have some extra dots on both of my panels that light up. Best way to explain is by looking at this pic. You see the dots between each letter I'm the middle part of the screen and between the colored squares at the top of the screen. Am I doing something wrong or is anyone else having this issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gech Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 You have a grb pannel. Not a rgb.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider lucky1 Posted April 12, 2016 Content Provider Share Posted April 12, 2016 The timing is not correct for these panels. Only RGB panels are supported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider coyo5050 Posted April 12, 2016 Author Content Provider Share Posted April 12, 2016 I bought the panel linked from the forums. It says rgb even lists pin2dmd in the title/description. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/P2-5-Indoor-full-color-LED-module-1-16-scan-SMD-2121-3in1-RGB-160-160mm/32475082626.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider coyo5050 Posted April 12, 2016 Author Content Provider Share Posted April 12, 2016 So basically the seller sent me the wrong panel then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Content Provider coyo5050 Posted April 12, 2016 Author Content Provider Share Posted April 12, 2016 No way to fix this by swapping wires on the cable? Trying to exchange this will be a huge pain. Think it would work for a pixel art display? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gech Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 You can easily swap red and green colors by swapping cables. But you won't get the 2 bad lines. I use my grb on my working station to preview. And my rgb in my cab.. in game the bad lines aren't so annoying. You can try to have another one from the supplier. That could work as they dont wanna have a bad feedback.

Lonzo Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Swapping the red and green wires in the ribbon cable will correct the color issue but not the extra pixel issue. I have a GRB panel that is perfect except for the colors so I modified the ribbon cable and it looks perfect now. I do have anther one on the way since they sent be the wrong panel but I can use this one now. . I heard that there is a grounding mod that is supposed to fix the stray pixels but I haven't researched that yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
