Hey @esev. So im just now getting back to this and I have things set to TM1814 but im still getting the idle mode blinking when off. I get this even when im forcing a service to in the wled.cpp like you talked about here. The interesting thing is if I have the control set to off (and its in its TM1814 idle blink mode) and I go into LED settings and Save it actually turns off the LEDs, Then when I turn the string on and off again it reverts to the TM1814 idle blink. Any thoughts on whats going on? |

Several of us have tested and found that the current refresh rate of 380 isn't sufficient for the TM1814. It requires a refresh rate of 350. The faster refresh rate is needed to prevent the TM1814 from entering its default flashing cycle.
Also the TM1814 requires that the strip be refreshed/serviced even when the LED is off. If this doesn't happen then the LEDs enter the default flashing cycle. Just like @Aircoookie had thought in #1519 (comment)
