Lights stay on after show finishes
Sometimes pixels will stick to the last data signal they receive, there are two ways of fixing this.
If you are using FPP, then go to FPP settings > UI > Switch to Advanced Level UI then go to Playback and tick Blank between sequences [ ] this will make sure that off is being sent to all pixels in between sequences.
You can also do the same using Baldrick Directly by creating a CunningFX of a colour splash which is just blank and setting that to automatically start when the Baldrick boots up.
Wrong pixels are lighting up when played from xLights
Normally this indicates that something has changed on the layout but the controllers hasn't been updated, if you can re-render the sequence then save, then go to the controllers tab in xLights and click Upload Outputs to the relevant controller.
