Flickering when Led going in low brigthness

  • Whole set up with APA102 stripes and Hyperion NG Alpha 9 working perfectly with internal and external grabber in regadrs of changing colors. But as I want it to be perfect, I have a issue which I couldn´t find in the forum. When a dark scence comes up or the color is not in full brigthness (I would guess below 20-30% brightness), the led starts flickering but not hard flickering it like on off and it is happening with same the color. So it is not a black problem. This applys only to the external grabber. Which value need to be changed to stop that?
    GND is connected to PI and Stripe.
    This kind of flickering wasn´t visible with the old Hyperion. So guessing it is a Software option
    I am asking, before I start to buy a new powersupply and ferrite filter.

  • I think I am getting the same issue. I did not find the right configuration. I think the issue is around "Color Calibration" in "Image Processing". For example I put "Backlight threshold" to "40%" this flickering effect disappear. But the light is on instead of black.

  • Yes for black I did the same, because I had the same what you have said. But I have the flickering with the colored LED´s on low brigthness. But I think it is the Hardware. When I look into the Live View, I can see this flickering as well. I am thinking about to buy new hardware, as mine is Hdmi splitter and analog stick.

  • How many total LEDs do you have and what power supply?


    I have the APA102 LED's and I've never experienced flickering. What baudrate and refreshrate do you have set on the LED Controller section?
