xLights - Create Sequence and Individual Prop Videos
Thanks for the Video, most of it I'm able to follow excepted when you start the import, where does the "txt" file come from or how is it generated?
where do i find the images?
love the vid but the noise removal on the microphone is ludicrous
Thank you for this. Saved me in a quick 5 minute video. I was struggling with layer render order and almost clicked away but you explained at the end that layers are reversed.
My pleasure.
Is there a certain size the image should be?
Although flights will resize the image ideally the image should be a similar resolution to your prop.
Great job . I am working in elf wings for this Christmas. Could you give me the name in the ELF download page? Thanks in advance
It not on the vendors website. I made all the submodels and effects for the video
Thanks for sharing this!
I have my IMac on Share Mac Analytics settings to on Share with App Developers but X Lights keeps crashing as soon as I touch a setting telling me to turn on (it’s already on)I’m getting ready to throw this out the Window 11,get it a joke!!Whats wrong please help!
This is a great nugget! Thank you. Question for you. Im considering making a virtual matrix that will cover the whole house - similar to projection mapping. Do you think its possible to sub model the virtual matrix to display 4 mp4 videos to play simultaneously with just 1 projector?
Things to be sure about are. Will the projector be bright enough to cover an entire house? Next it would probably be better to use a video editor to stack all you videos . However yes you could submodel the entire virtual matrix.
Fantastic tip! Thank you so much for sharing this!
Thanks! Great video!
thank you so much for sharing sir.
My pleasure
Hello. New to the hobby but setting these wings as a stand alone prop. Can you share the sequence please.
Awesome.... very smart
filmarea super urata - imi rup ochii
?
What a shame that you no longer make and share videos. I think your explanation is the best on the internet.
Thank you for the kind words.
How do you save this timing track? or Just save the file as a xlight timing file?
Yes. If you just want the lyric track. Otherwise just Dave it with your sequence .
How can i create custom effects in xlights ?
What type of effects are you trying to create?
That is the best effect making video I have seen yet great job please keep them coming!
This video made me subscribe. Well done.
This is so bad a$$! Thanks alot man! Merry Christmas. 😎
Thank you
Tried restarting xlights with no luck
super helpful reminders for me after not having to make my own lyric tracks for a couple years
Appreciate the videos / tutorials - definitely helps!
What if I’m using traditional Christmas lights with multiple channels. How do I separate nodes?
Learning Xlights for my first show this year and this was very helpful for a sequence I am putting together. The way you explained it was easy to follow and I made the changes on my sequence at each step you did. Well done. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you this helped alot
This was the exact tutorial I needed and it was so much easier than I thought it would be! Thank you for the break down and for always making these nuggets digestible but not long winded!
Thank you.
This is great! FWIW, if you use 1 blade instead of 2 on the Pinwheel, then its center doesn't need to be at the edge of the display.
I have the Gilbert Engineering wings, which are similar but less dense. Unfortunately, they don't have as robust submodels as the ones you created. Is there an efficient way to create similar submodels on the GE wings?
i followed but i lost you to how to get the different mouths on each face i cant find that on photoshop
You need to look for a frame in your footage that has the mouth shape you need.
What would be the right image size to create? I got like 4 lines of lights, nothing close to the image i wanted.
Unfortunately to display images you need a matrix or other HD prop.
ok so how do you use it? was not a big help trying to set up spinners, Is radius two the max pixels on the leg? I still don't know how to use it
Sorry don't understand your question.
Thanks for the video. I was trying to figure out why there's an option for End Position with the picture effect but it's always grayed out. I'm sure you know this but for anyone else that may watch this video - you do not need to keep clicking on drop downs or toggle (left/right up/down) with your mouse. You can put your cursur over the field and use your middle mouse scroll wheel to toggle through. Saves a lot of time.
When i do the copy and paste its just copying the letter not the image, is there something i am forgetting? Also using photoshop.
This is an awesome training nugget!
So, I tested this on a 18Mb MP4. The video is 1280x720. I selected the preset Very Fast 720p 30 and the file size actually increased to 40MB. What should I have done differently? Thanks for the video by the way. :) I've learnt heaps from them.
What is the resolution if the original video ?
Can you help?. Where do I download the faces to get into xlights? I need models.
If it's a standard singing prop it should be already in Xlights. If not you can create it yourself but this takes a bit of patience .
Software please
Handbrake.
Very informative please make a video on Magatree Spiro’s or different effects on the tree 🌲
incredible - I had no idea you could do this. Thank you for showing this!!
what are the settings for your mega tree if you dont mind sharing...apparently my tree doesnt have enough strands ...it looks very different from yours
I don't have a megatree. But all trees should look fundamentally the same. But more dense trees with render effects more clearly.
I love this tip! Just getting started and only have a few elements this year. But I've caught the bug and plan on adding more this summer. How did you make the singing faces? Again, noobie here and don't know much about xLights just yet. Thanks for the great tip!

@@xlightstrainingnuggets9736 Thank You!
When you record videos in xlights, it's really important to turn the brightness up, and enlarge the size of the pixels (under layout model properties appearance) so they can be seen more easily. Most videos I've tried to watch on my tablet you can BARELY see the lights on the screen.
In my xlights when I open the color palette, I don't have the same thing you have. It doesn't look anything like yours. I don't have a RGB slider, and I don't have a box to manually enter the color hex? Not sure why. I have the latest version of xlights installed.
Thank you so much for this video.
Thanks! I had one song clipping really bad and this fixed it. Also, brought up the level on my in-show announcement, which was too quiet.
Glad I could help
That double click tip to edit texts was a life saver!! That was frustrating..
👍👍👍👍
GREAT video. Thank you!! A couple q's though. (1) what resolution matrix do you have and (2) what is the resolution of the singing faces? I'm concerned my matrix doesn't have enough pixels to support this. I only have 512 pixels in my 4'x8' matrix
I don't have a matrix. But it's more to do with viewing distance. However, detailed singing faces are a challenge. You are better using a virtual matrix.
@@qualar I've never heard of a virtual matrix. Something new to learn about! Thanks!
