CCP's 1602MP3 Controller

[Rickster]

I just purchased a 1602 Mp3 to run a pixel mega tree.  When I run the sequence through the computer the tree runs just fine.  When I download the sequence to the SD card and plug it into the 1602 the lights lag behind the music.  Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?

How many CCPs? When creating the show for the SD Card, are you using the Hardware Utility -> MP3 tab? If so, are you choosing the 500k option for the MP3 director?

You need to make sure you set the MP3 player to 500k option as Don suggested. This is only good for the Generation 3 MP3/Director units even the one on the controller needs to have the Generation 3 player. If you did that then maybe make sure you updated the firmware on all the ccps controllers. If you have a Generation 3 controller with the built in Gn. 3 Mp3 player then you might want to make sure the firmware is up to date as well on it. (Might not be important if it has last years update)
