Bug report

Describe the bug

setting a screen does not work or works only once.

Additional information

• used Hardware:
  • ESP8266 (D1 mini)
  • EspHome 2023.12.3
  • EspHoMaTriXv2 version: default and also 2023.9.1
  • HA Version 2023.12.3

To Reproduce

setting a screen with the service

service: esphome.matrixv2_icon_screen
data:
  default_font: true
  icon_name: attention
  text: test
  lifetime: 1
  screen_time: 1
  r: 255
  g: 255
  b: 255

causes "Unknown error" in the UI.

I can find the following error in the HA logs:

EspHoMaTriXv2 2023.9.1, ESPHome 2023.12.5 - All work without problem ...

Hi,
please try to remove the e131 stuff, the esp8266 has a poor performance and in conjunction with a poor wifi i can imagine the source of the error.

I highly recommend using an ESP32 with the later versions of esphomematrix

  method: multicast # default: register E1.31 to Multicast group

To the OP, if you're stuck with an Awtrix form-factor, it's not a bad option to swap out the D1 mini for a D1 Mini ESP32 as so: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32816117396.html

My Awtrix had a socket and the D1 Mini ESP32 has the same pin placement and everything so all I had to do was change this in my ESPHome YAML and I was up and running with fully-functioning EHMTXv2.

esp32:
  board: mhetesp32minikit

Bonus that it appears to be a full ESP32 dual-core as opposed to the "other ESP32" small boards like S3 which are only single-core.

Thanks for the hint. Ported my config with an advised ESP32-Mini to idf-framework and now I have a esphomatrix with bluetooth proxy. Had some of them for spare.
