Smooth Video Playback

Sixty Pixels a Meter. Full Motion.

Each meter of ProfiLED holds 60 individually addressed pixels with 8-bit grayscale on every channel. Ten bars give a 600 pixel line, which is enough resolution to run animation, graphics and video rather than a flat colour wash.

Resolution

What 60 pixels per meter buys you

Pixel density decides how much detail a line of bars can show. At 60 pixels per meter a ten bar run is a 600 pixel line, so text, gradients and moving shapes stay readable rather than turning into blocks.

Each channel carries 8-bit grayscale, meaning 256 levels. That is what keeps slow fades and dark scenes smooth instead of visibly stepping.

Live Sources

Feeding live content to the bars

Content is normally built in LED Strip Studio on a pixel map of the real layout, so an effect follows the physical shape of the rig rather than the order of the cabling.

The software can also take a live HDMI or Blackmagic capture and push it straight to the bars, which is how a ProfiLED rig follows a video feed in real time.

  • Content mapped to the real physical layout
  • Live HDMI or Blackmagic capture sent straight to the bars
  • Finished shows exported to the controller SD card

FAQ

Smooth Video Playback questions

Yes. At 60 pixels per meter a run of bars carries animation, graphics and full motion content rather than a single colour.

Sixty per meter, so ten bars on one controller give 600 individually addressed pixels.

Yes. LED Strip Studio can capture live HDMI or Blackmagic input and send it to the bars in real time. More in Screen Grabbing to Pixel LEDs in LSS4.
