Hi,
I'm grabbing a USB camera signal (see my configuration below) and the LEDs react weirdly.
First, I captured a Samsung TV screen. The LEDs responded very irregularly and seldom matched the colors on the screen.
To find the bug, I'm now using my Smartphone to show a single color full screen (using the app "Pocket Softbox") and see what happens with the LEDs. Well, the colors only match when I start my Raspi or restart the Hyperion service in an SSH session using the command
However, when I change the color on that screen, one of the following effects occurs:
Either
- the LEDs do not react at all or
- the LEDs react with a delay of 15 to 60 seconds and many (not all) LEDs show an almost matching color or
- the LEDs react with a delay and show another random, non-repeating pattern
I checked back with the Live Video Preview in Hyperion.NG and this matches the captured screen. It's just the LEDs not working.
For a comparison, I also used a TV grabber (with Macrosil chipset) - which also leads to weird LED reactions while the Live Video Preview is fine.
This is my configuration:
Hardware:
- Raspi 3b+
- Webcam Logitech Pro 9000 (which is recognized as UVC camera)
- TV grabber EasyDay EasyCap DC60 with Macrosil Chipset
- LED strip WS2801
Software:
- Hyperbian with Hyperion.NG Alpha 10
Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.
