Leds flicker and sometimes no there is no image

What type of LEDs are they? How many amps is your power supply? Did you connect the ground from your LEDs to your pi? Do you see the flash in the LED Visualization preview?

more info please,

what kind of PSU/ledstrip/pi/ Hyperion.ng type, OS type , ledcontroller type

What GPIO did you use, how many LEDs, did you use any Arduino or other MCU ,

Give us info please

starters,

if you used a LOOP capture device , set device type on Camera. Set every setting in USB grabber menu on static/not automatically

i don't remember to see the option to set it as a camera, i am using this device:

that LOOP device for capturing is much used by much members,

to have it succesfully being detected with Hyperion.NG you have to set the USB grabbing settings in WEbUI NOT on USB but to camera.

If you don't do that then on USB device/0 the grabber" fades and redetects all the time.

Issue One: every 10 sec a white flash happens.

Issue two: image disappears but sound continues.

1; can be a GND grounding problem, connect all your GND to PSU also from diffrent kind of PSU. Use more then one groundPIN on PI

2; already explained in above post

so i see in your post that you are testing the complete strand of lights of 5 mtr/ 60leds mtr to se if they react.

you have only programmed 160 leds yes In hyperion?

First i would recommend; make your setup/cut the lights > solder them at 2 sides GND/+5volts and connect that together to PSU.

THEN TEST

I would also guess it's a grounding issue. You need to bring a wire from the ground on the PSU to a ground pin on the pi.

When using different power sources it's important to establish a common ground between the two.

I dont remember to see an option to set the capture device as camera

its there, trust us.

i can not show you because i am running a whole diffrent Hyperion.NG version, it's not in there > WebUI

the other settings thats now on automatic need a static one.

so

FPS > 15 or lower

resolution ( begin lowest possible and build-up)

video standard > PAL or NTSC

decimation > between 4 and 12

if that doesnt help your capturing device is not getting a image

It works! You are the best!

you're welcome man

I'm having similar problems with a little bit different configuration.

I have sk6812 led strip connected to a nodemcu esp8266 with wled, with Hyperion Ng on a Raspi3b+, with the same loop capture card. The raspi has its own PSU, the LEDs and the nodemcu have their own PSU. The nodemcu has connected the D4 pin plus a ground shared with the LEDs stripe.

The LEDs are showing correctly the colors of the image, but from time to time, randomly in time and in amount of times, the LEDs flicker on random colours, even if image is paused.

I've changed the capture card configuration from automatic to the configuration shown in the attached picture, but still flickering.

One note, it was working fine at first, then I disconnected everything and next time it had the annoying flickering effect.

Any help/recommendation?

In this YouTube video you can see the flickering from second 10
