FPP v9 Proxy Setup & Configuration

Sometimes its not possible to run an ethernet cable from your home router to your show in the front yard…
In this video we run through setting up a Proxy in FPP v9.
The Pi connects to your home wifi network, and the controllers are then wired to the pi. We then setup a new Baldrick controller in xLights 2025.6, push the config to the Baldrick and FPP and then test in FPP.

Note: 18 Aug 25 – I read earlier that the FPP v9 Proxy issues had been resolved in the master branch.

So, I’ve started a fresh image, updated to master and then tested – still no joy.

Ticket raised on FPP Github: https://github.com/FalconChristmas/fpp/issues/2336.

For now, i’d suggest sticking with FPP 8.5.1 as that works fine.
