ensureBuffer()

template<typename CONTROLLER, EOrder RGB_ORDER = GRB>

void RGBWEmulatedController< CONTROLLER, RGB_ORDER >::ensureBuffer ( fl::i32 num_leds )

inlineprivate

Ensures the internal RGBW buffer is large enough for the LED count.

Parameters

num_leds

Number of RGB LEDs to convert to RGBW

Reallocates the buffer if needed, accounting for the 4:3 byte ratio when packing RGBW data into RGB format
