Hyperion Idle - No/new source left -> switch LED-Device off/on

1st Official Post

    I want Hyperion to work even when playback is paused and Hyperion is in Idle State.

    In previous versions (long time ago) simply deactivating Background Effect/Colour did the trick and it never went off always showed the perfect colours.


    With Hyperion.NG 2.0 alpha 8 when I disable Background Effect/Colour, I get errors like this during pause every 5-6 seconds and turning on/off the leds until I resume the playback:

    new source available -> switch LED-Device on

    No source left -> switch LED-Device off

    Code

    I can't find any option to resolve this and allow Platform Capture when Hyperion is Idle.


    Anyone can help me set this up?

    you mean, that if playback is paused, the leds should show the paused screen?

    Weird, I get that if on platform capture i get kodi's screen whether its the dim screensaver i still get the blue background, same with paused film it shows whatever is on the screen.


    usb capture is the same as i only have cable box on that and the only thing i can think of that differs between us is i define my source, if i switch to kodi a script disables usb and enables platform so at any time there is only 1 source active, if platform and usb are both disabled Hyperion shows whatever effect is selected in Hyperion UI - kind of doubles up as if not watching tv, music will be on so the effect is quite cool


    Your settings may need tweaked check out Hyperion Dash -> Configuration -> Capturing Hardware -> Instance Hardware


    If you want Platform to be priority make sure than numbers lower than USB capture
