I keep getting this error when trying to run the demoreel or fire. no matching function for call to ‘CFastLED::addLeds(CRGB [331], int)’ blink and first light works which seems to call on the same function from the library.
I really don’t know much with arduino or FastLED so I’m guessing there’s something simple I’m missing but I don’t know what it is. Anyone have an ideo?
Can you post your code to http://gist.github.com or http://pastebin.com and post the link here so we can take a look at your code and see what’s going on?
Also - for extra info - go into your arduino preferences, turn on verbose output during compilation and copy/paste the entire build log from trying to compile to a gist or pastebin as well so I can see all the compiler messages that are coming out.

#include "FastLED.h"

// For led chips like Neopixels, which have a data line, ground, and power, you just
// need to define DATA_PIN. For led chipsets that are SPI based (four wires - data, clock,
// ground, and power), like the LPD8806 define both DATA_PIN and CLOCK_PIN
#define DATA_PIN 6
#define CLOCK_PIN 13show original

Now I figured out a fix for it but don’t understand it. I used NEOPIXEL as the chipset on the Fire2012 file I just posted and it gets the error. If I switch it to WS2812B it works fine. But then the Blink file that is also posted where you comment out the chipset, I used NEOPIXEL there and it works just fine. Btw, these are both just examples that came with the library.
I appreciate the help.
NEOPIXEL doesn’t take a color ordering.
