Blynk and Neopixels on ESP8266

Does anyone know if Blynk on the ESP8266 is incompatible with the Adafruit_neopixel library and how neopixels work given their timing requirements. I have a small routine that updates a grid of pixels properly but once I add in the Blynk functionality and have a virtual pin trigger a display update, the display updates with a lot of random colors.

Blynk is independent of any 3rd party libraries. So it should work properly. Could you please post your code?

Hi there,

I use the NeoPixelBus-library (that supports ESP8266) in combination with Blynk and it works fine.

Regs,

The original NeoPixel Library now also supports ESP8266.
