I plan to release #OpenRGB Release Candidate 1.0rc3 this weekend. The current state of the master branch is good, cleaned up a few rough edges. This is not going to include the next branch stuff yet, this is going to be the final build on the existing SDK/API to bring in the latest device support and fixes for I2C conflicts that could result in system instability.

After 1.0rc3 is out, merge requests will be frozen until the next branch gets merged into master.

While the #OpenRGB Next branch is progressing nicely, we have decided to release another release candidate before the Next work lands for 1.0 final. I plan to release OpenRGB 1.0rc3 hopefully next week after I get my X299 CPU to verify the Skylake IMC SMBus PawnIO driver. This 1.0rc3 release candidate will address two major system stability issues as well as bring more hardware support while remaining compatible with existing 1.0rc2 plugins.

If you want to use #openrgb on #Kubuntu 26.04 but can't get the .deb to install because of missing dependencies (libcryto7 etc).

It's in Synaptic. That works great.

Got the start of an #ARGB #WS2812 signal parser working using #RaspberryPi #RP2040 PIO. Going to use this with my #OpenRGB RP2040 ARGB splitter project to send configuration data (LED channel counts) using a standard ARGB controller output. RP2040 PIO is awesome for dealing with high speed serial signals!

My #RP2040 #OpenRGB Smart ARGB Splitter PCBs came! #OSHPark did a great job on them and they work as expected. Splitting one ARGB/WS2812 signal into up to 8 output channels.

Thanks to the great work of @CalcProgrammer1 on @OpenRGB, I was able to configure two different keyboard color schemes for my private computer and my work laptop to better help me distinguish when I'm using which (I use the same peripherals via a KVM switch).

I have to admit that it took me a few tries to figure out how to save profiles and to load them upon startup, but I keep being amazed by #OpenRGB!

I made a video discussing and demonstrating my RP2040 ARGB splitter and showing off some upcoming #OpenRGB features.

Yesssss! All it needed was the idle reset and to fix an off by one error on the bit counter! Successfully splitting a 30 LED WS2812 stream into two 15 LED streams (actually the controller is sending 255 LEDs but #OpenRGB is only driving 30). Now to rig up a third output to make sure subsequent switches still work.

I created an updated version of my #OpenRGB Desk Fan project, a 3D printed and Arduino Pro Micro based stand and controller for an RGB PC fan to be used as a desk fan. The new design cleans up the base and allows both 120mm and 140mm fans to be used.
