RGBW+WW support (WS2805)

[Modalen-Engineering]

Hi!
Is anybody working on RGBW+WW support?
I will receive some ws2805 tape in January and see that WLED don't support it right now.
From the datasheet i can that data is similar to ws2814 with 8 extra bit for the last white.

No, not yet. Check if NeoPixelBus supports it.

It seems like support is being added to NeoPixelBus as of a couple of days ago. (Potentially the next release?)

Makuna/NeoPixelBus#765

Makuna/NeoPixelBus#764

Any news about the support about this?
I just recived it, I thought I could color it like I don on Govee M1, using the WS2814, but on this on it doesn't work. It just display random colors every group of leds.

I guess this is because you need to send a extra byte. If you send 4 byte standard, it will take the byte for the next message.

I ordered some ledstrips too, so I second this request

A groundwork has been done in #3810
If you wish to speed up, add support in bus_wrapper.h and other relevant files and make a PR.

I will need beta testers. Please contact me on Discord in beta testing channel.

@Modalen-Engineering which Controller you are used? Because when i read the datasheet, the Date line Need the Same voltage as the stripe (e.g 24v).

?
Data need voltage 24v? What are you talking about.
Also this situation is already resolved on version 0.15 betas.

5v signal level. 24v supply. Same ground as supply but not same signal Level.
Controller i have used is a custom PCB with 5v linedrivers.
