342 forum posts	Thanks Michael, thanks Hopper appreciated guys. The LEDs showed up as blinking in the video. Its caused by the camera's video frame rate. I've tried changing the frame rate through the cameras setup but all that did was change how the LEDs blinked. Not sure how to overcome the phenomena?

23121 forum posts 1360 photos	Not much chance, so far as I am aware It’s the same underlying problem as when the wheels appear to be going backwards. [ which is quite obvious on the fan in this video ] With an exotic camera, you could shoot at high speed and then slow it down to normal But I doubt it’s worth the effort and expense. I, for one, am very happy to ‘see-through’ a common problem like that, and just enjoy what you are demonstrating to us. MichaelG. Edited By Michael Gilligan on 01/11/2022 22:09:35
