If you self compile, please state this and PLEASE try to ONLY REPORT ISSUES WITH OFFICIAL BUILDS!

Summarize of the problem/feature request

I use a precompiled version: ESPEasy_mega_20181004_test_ESP8266_4096_VCC.
Since this version, there are problems with my Neopixel strip (SK6812 at GPIO 0) with the Plugin38.
Some LEDs light up in an uncontrolled manner. When change the color or brightness, most pixels are ok, but some are faulty. The number and colors of the wrongly lit LED's changes. Possibly, faulty timing caused by going back from Core 2.4.2 to 2.4.1?
