New user installation instructions

For new users, you need to download the appropriate image from the links below. Then follow the instructions found at https://falconchristmas.com/forum/index.php/topic,9372.0.html to "burn" the image on to an SD card. Just extracting/copying the file to a blank SD card will NOT work.

New Features:

  • ArtNet support for input/bridge universes
  • Pin maps for PB16 board

Enhancements:

  • Button to create UDEV rules to force current network device names to be persistent
  • Option for remote video to ignore sync packets and just play without slowdowns/speedups
  • Option for master to specify a delay between sending the Open command and the Start command to allow remotes time to process the video/sequence
  • Add Stop Now and Stop Gracefully to OLED playlist page
  • Split fppd boot service into two parts to allow fppd to start later which allows IP address to display on screen

Bug fixes:

  • Fix GPIO initialization on Raspberry Pi that kept GPIO/PWM outputs from working reliably
  • Allow 8M channels on DisplayTesting page
  • MQTT - resubscribe after disconnect/reconnect
  • Fix omxplayer starting twice causing ghosting
  • Fix Stop Gracefully button not enabling
  • Fix sound card detection at boot if sound card is removed/changed

Upgrade Instructions:

The best way to upgrade from FPP 2.x is to re-image the device. The full OS upgrade to Debian Buster requires a re-image.

If you have a system running 3.x, you can go to the FPP about page (about.php) and click on the "Manual Update" button. At that point, a big green "Upgrade" bar should appear. It will take a long time to upgrade. Likely 20-30 minutes. You will need to reboot after the upgrade is complete to finish the upgrade process.
