Welcome to WLED 0.14.4 "Hoshi"!
If you saw a shooting star, what would you wish for?
WLED 0.14.4 is a maintenance release for 0.14.3 with a bugfix for slow framerate due to unoptimised palette handling.
WARNING:
This version includes binaries for ESP8266 which feature double CPU clock frequency (160MHz) distinguished by the _160 name suffix. Although it has been tested on many variants of ESP8266 there may be devices that do not support overclocking the CPU. If your device is in places hard to reach or difficult to flash DO NOT use these binaries unless you test them on a similar device first. And even then there are no guarantees that a particular device will run correctly with overclocked CPU.
In case you do update with 160MHz version and your device fails to boot or operates incorrectly you may need to connect it to a computer and flash it serially using USB connection. Please erase flash prior to doing so.
A huge thank you to the WLED community - to everyone who has contributed to development, documentation and testing, and to all early adopters who provided lots of feedback and sparked many discussions on how to improve things. You all made WLED better and made this version happen! ❤️
