Migrate from Hyperion to Hyperion NG - multiple instances / different USB Video sources

SciLor · 25. Juli 2021

I am currently migration from my single Raspberry Pi Setup which got three instances of Hyperion running and get data from 2 different video sources, as it controls the LEDs for two different TVs.

How can I achieve the same with HyperionNG / HyperBian? I can create multiple LED Hardware, but I can only select one single USB Video source.

How can I either use multiple sources within one instance or can deploy multiple instances of HyperionNG?

Why is this marked as resolved? It isn't resolved.

I have the exact same question. Can I have two different TV ambilight setups controlled with Hyperion on a single raspberry pi?

Same here. This LED instances in one Hyperion instance might be useful for most usecases. But I also move from separated hyperion instances to hyperion-ng and now recognize I cannot achieve what worked before. Also effects running for different LED instances go wild on my setup.

Anyone was able to start hyperon-ng in separate istances?

Please mark this thread as unresolved.

I still know no solution to have two or more camera/data sources to drive multiple led stripes of different video sources.

Was there a change that made it possible since the last post?

No. You can change the code that checks for an already running instance... and need to ensure that alls ports are not overlapping during configuration...
