Control HyperionNG via .sh Script or Command Line Interface

  • Hello,

    I am pretty new to the Forum and hope that some of you can help me. I have successfully installed HyperionNG on my Raspberry Pi 4 with LibreElec (Tutorial from Paulchen-Panther) and it is running great.


    I would like to use my Ambilight for

    1. LibreElec by the internal Grabber (is working)

    2. For external HDMI Devices by an USB Grabber (is working)


    I can switch between the Capture Sources in the "Remote Control" Category on the Webinterface. So fine so good, but I would like to have it a bit easier.


    My Problem: How can I change the HyperionNG State on LibreElec?

    Idea: I would like to run a .sh Script on LibreElec that for example

    - will change the Capture Source (LibreElec or USB Grabber)

    - turns On/Off HyperionNG

    - starts an effect.

    (Basically the Things you can set in the "Remote Control" Category on the Webinterface)


    I found the CLI Commands (https://docs.hyperion-project.…dvanced/Advanced.html#cli) but I can't get them to work. I tried via Putty aswell but so far I did not managed to execute them successfully.


    Any Help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
