Playlist duration time < 0.2 second needed

[Cryghast]

Version: 0.15.0 b5

Can‘t set duration time to 0.1s，the limit is 0.2s

Currently I‘m using esp8266

Recently I’m working on a project that needs very smooth color change，should change the color every 0.1s or smaller scale, but playlist seems not support that

Hi,

Playlist minimal time is 0.2 seconds for technical reasons - especially for 8266 which is easily overloaded (and crashing) when frequently changing presets.

FYI preset parsing and activation currently takes between 50ms and 300ms, depending on flash speed, chip (8266 or esp32) and content of a preset. The interlock (semaphore) for the global JSON buffer - need when applying a preset - has a timeout of ~250ms.
So changing presets more often than 5 times per second will usually not work, or even lead to crashes.

Did you try with "crossfade" and "palette transition" (LED prefereces) enabled? This should lead to smooth changing of colors. You might also need to switch on "off refresh" (led settings) to make the static color effect react smoothly.

If this is a hardware limit, then I guess it is hard to solve.
