IR Remote Setup
Click the LED Preferences tab and scroll down to Hardware Setup.
Change the IR GPIO pin to 12, which corresponds to the pin soldered to the IR sensor, and select the remote you're using from the list.
Remote Usage
Save your favorite combinations as presets, create playlists, control the speed and intensity of the animations, and lots more. This web app is incredibly intuitive and easy to use.
When you're in "solid" mode in WLED, the color buttons near the top of the remote will change the colors, making the pixels act like a "dumb" RGB strip.
On my 44-key remote, there are buttons near the bottom labeled "DIY1", "DIY2" etc. WLED will automatically assign your animation presets to these buttons so you can select your favorite presets or playlists. Simply save the presets you want to the first 6 preset slots and the buttons will pull them up.
You will need to press the button marked "Auto" to switch to DIY mode on the remote. Press "Auto" then "DIY1" to play the preset saved to slot #1 in WLED.
Head over to the WLED wiki at https://kno.wled.ge/ to delve into all the particulars.
