oh wow thats cool, ill have to count but would it be easier to allow the end user to type in the amount per string?

correct i cut off the last 5 leds to make it fit. due to the options in SIV the last 3 in my current setup arnt being used. ill probably end up in software upping the length so it will think its longer, but should still look ok

i didnt split it physically, i had to cut 5 diodes off the end and then in the software i added it as RGB 10 LED Items x5 so teh led effects act as though there are separate strips. not my desired setup, i want white with red phasing through it but it works for now

all finished and works great. Really neat how you can break the strip into smaller stips in the software

thanks. the arrow is on the plug it appears to be vdc

thanks but left to right with no reference means nothing all the wires are black, one of them has a stripe on it which changes position on the 2 cables from everything you said im guessing looking at the wire vdc is the arrow,then data then gnd?

ordered a strip to try this out. making the connections right now. im going to use the cable from the three button controller. You said the middle was green (data) which one is gnd, power? on the connector there is an arrow which one is that?
