In this video we will take a look at how to build two Retro clocks using RGB Matrix panels. You could have one of these projects completely setup in literally 5 minutes.

I have set up a Github Sponsorship page, it's similar style thing to patreon. Github sponsorships help support videos like these plus the open source projects I create.

Some people have said they would prefer a once off way of supporting the channel, here is a Paypal link if you would prefer that!

Apologies for the abrupt ending, that was as much audio has I had recorded last week and my voice is a little funny as I'm recovering from Covid!

Just pretend to hear this "I hope you enjoyed the video and if you have any question please ask! Thanks for watching, Slan"

I love the tetris clock design. What a great idea

[jamesbrady]

i got the trinity and flashed it via the web - worked so perfectly!! nice work!!! makes it a bit **to** easy...

[sebastiansombra]

Very nice and easy to follow projects. I discovered these panels and their possibilities with your video on the scrolling text for smarter everyday. Your videos have helped me going from knowing nothing to being able to modify the base code to fit my needs. I added wifi manager to the scrolling text base code and also the possibility to do OTA updates which I think it’s a great feature as you can update code with the panel still mounted in your wall! Thanks for sharing your projects

Another awesome video Brian. Hope you get over your covid real soon. Just ordered the Trinity, had to use the China link, all others seem to be out of stock, it'll be well worth the wait though 👍

Excellent project, I have the 64 x 64 displays just waiting for a purpose, and I just ordered the Trinitys. Thanks!

[codingfun]

what is the 64x64 panel ? i have a p3 64x64 from aliexpress and having issues with it.

[tabbymrp]

Thanks! Can't wait to get all the parts and star to build this!

[papagal]

i took my socks off, to give you 4 thumbs up

[stowjer]

Excellent Tutorial man! Very much looking forward to getting this on the go!
Many thanks

does it have to be a trinity? I have a random esp (inland from microcenter) thanks!!

[CriticalEnmity]

can the trinity be used if I have two 64x32 board stacked on top of each other forming a 64x64 matrix and I want to display animated gifs on?

[pigeonramier]

hi, what are the type of led used in those "funly led glass" controllable trough android phone app and how can they make the electronic part so tiny to fit in the farm of the glasses ?? the esp32 seems huge compared to those compacy glasses

[andreamitchell]

does the tetris clock have a 64x64 version?
conversely does the Mario clock have a landscape layout version?
also can you use an ESP-8266 for these matrix or do you need an esp-32?

[jean-phiclerc]

Hi all
thank you for sharing, a question, sorry if already asked, is this code functional on a classic esp32 or esp8266 card? Thanks and best regards Jean-Philippe

[AndyCallaway]

Lol. "Open the box and throw away the instructions"...

[ahoybruw]

Hi, I have a 64x64 display that I got from Aliexpress and for some reason half of the screen is missing. It's like 1/4 of the screen is on another 1/4 is off. Then on and off again. Do you have any advice? The pixels do work but they don't display anything with my ESP32

[quintencabo]

Where did you find the wireing for the matrix? What each port does.

[MPElectronique]

I love Mario clock... i made one. Thanks!!!
Marc.

Could you tell me if it would be possible to make a news, weather ticker ? One you could enter your api key with a cell phone to send news and weather to your display.
