Pixel buffer accepts tuples but returns lists with different value

On version 4.1.0

color values passed as tuples (r,g,b) are returned as `[brightnessr,brightnessb,brightness*c]

import board
import neopixel	
color_red=(80,0,0)		
self.pixels = neopixel.NeoPixel(board.D18, 256, auto_write=False, brightness=0.5)
red = (80,0,0)
pixels[1] = red
print( pixels[1])

Prints [40,0,0]

This issue is resolved.

>>> import board
>>> import neopixel
>>> pixels = neopixel.NeoPixel(board.NEOPIXEL, 10, auto_write=False, brightness=0.5)
>>> red = (80, 0, 0)
>>> pixels[1] = red
>>> print(pixels[1])
(80, 0, 0)

I think you might be hitting this: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Pypixelbuf/pull/4#discussion_r368309515 which should be fixed in latest release. Try updating to the 5.0.0 release and see if the problem persists: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_NeoPixel/releases/tag/5.0.0 Return may still be a list, but hopefully will not have the incorrect value.
