WS2812B Don't light more than 31 leds. Need help!

Hello,

i was made this project:

the project works fine but with a 30led strip or less.

When i added a 144 ledstrip, and i changed the value inside the code for 144 leds, nothing changed.

So maybe is something inside library which i can't figure it out?

The leds work fine, i tested them with another code, so everything lighted up normally.
Also there is no power supply issue of amperage.

Thank you

Please take some time to read How to get the best out of this forum (again?)

Next post YOUR code using code tags as described in the above link.

Sorry, is my first topic, so i will try to figure it out.

So this is the code:

// The order of primary colors in the NeoPixel data stream can vary among
// device types, manufacturers and even different revisions of the same
// item.  The third parameter to the Adafruit_NeoPixel constructor encodes
// the per-pixel byte offsets of the red, green and blue primaries (plus
// white, if present) in the data stream -- the following #defines provide
// an easier-to-use named version for each permutation. e.g. NEO_GRB
// indicates a NeoPixel-compatible device expecting three bytes per pixel,
// with the first byte transmitted containing the green value, second
// containing red and third containing blue. The in-memory representation
// of a chain of NeoPixels is the same as the data-stream order; no
// re-ordering of bytes is required when issuing data to the chain.
// Most of these values won't exist in real-world devices, but it's done
// this way so we're ready for it (also, if using the WS2811 driver IC,
// one might have their pixels set up in any weird permutation).

// Bits 5,4 of this value are the offset (0-3) from the first byte of a
// pixel to the location of the red color byte.  Bits 3,2 are the green
// offset and 1,0 are the blue offset.  If it is an RGBW-type device
// (supporting a white primary in addition to R,G,B), bits 7,6 are the
// offset to the white byte...otherwise, bits 7,6 are set to the same value
// as 5,4 (red) to indicate an RGB (not RGBW) device.

See those four ledStrip.fill(color, 9, 14) near the bottom of the sketch. Those numbers control which LEDs will be changed. Here's the documentation for fill().

hello again. I create it in tinkercad (i removed some code for mp3 module, as i can't add this library on tinkercad). As you can see, it doesn't light up all the leds. Also, i realized, that if i set 144 leds, it overcomes some leds in first lead strip, so maybe the code expand across the led strip? I don't know. Here is the link: [Login | Tinkercad

What i should add? I try something, from what you said, but didn't make it work.

I think you ought to start with changing numPix to 144 if that's how many LEDs you have.

hello.

i set this 144.

nothing changed. it works only max for 31-34 leds...not more...
