I installed a bunch of regular LED's and after being horrified I ordered a LEDOCD board. I installed the LEDOCD board and the majority of everything instantly looked and felt better with exception I have a few oddities going on. For instance, all fellowship members light and fade perfectly except Borimir lightly flickers like it's ghosting. Also the Mode start, DTR insert and arrow above that flicker as well same with Gollumn. I know the LEDOCD is programmable - but I'd like a little guidance on what to do (past the connection and loading the LOTR config file).

Thanks!

I had no such issues with the ocd in mine. But you can try going into the config and changing the intervals for the lights in question. Also check to make sure the connections are good and the bulbs are firmly seated.

What kind of LEDs did you use? You want regular LEDs with the OCD not non-ghosting ones.

This. Regular bulbs will be able to fade more smoothly. Non-ghosting have a cliff where they go from fully lit...straight to completely off.

LOTR is probably the game that benefits the most from an OCD board.

Yup, I have the Comet LED kit in my LOTR with LED OCD and it looks amazing! I didn’t have to do any tweaking at all.

No stranger to the OCD world. Using standard LEDs not ghost busters. Same type of bulbs work fine in other spots that's what's really odd about this. So how do you go about figuring out what lamp is what?

They are labeled in the profile and you can turn them on/off individually
