Phillips Hue Entertainment API

Hello together,

i have a question regarding the Phillips Hue Entertainment API. For the instance i have integrated a DiyHue Gateway and i have managed to integrate 2 self builded Hue Signe Lights. Everything works fine and they run synchronous with the First instance (HD107s Strip for TV Backlight).

However i have a little problem. Every time the Picture is black for a specific time i get a restart of the Phillips Hue Signe Lights.

I am wondering if this is a bug in Hyperion with the UDP datastream.

In the documentation there is an option for phillips hue config without entertainment api (attached below):

Signal detection timeout on black


Is this option also available for Entertainment API ? It sound like this would fix my problem. But i cant find it anywhere in the latest Hyperion Version.

Hello,

I have the latent version 2.016.

There is just the Phillips Hue Wizard but no other options Like in your picture.

Is there a special reason why it was removed. Do i have to make the settings in the Phillips Hue App ?

Thank you very much.

The trick with the low backlight solves my problem for the second instance for now.

Nevertheless, I will submit a log later.

I was wrong. It does not fix the issue...

The problem is the following:

[V4L2] (INFO) Signal lost

This signal lost triggers the DIY Hue controlled lights to reboot.

At the same moment i get this Image from the USB Grabber:

I dont understand why there is a signal lost event. It happens when i start a new episode from a series from example. But in reality its just a black loading screen... .

Is that a problem with the Usb Grabber ??? .

Thank you for the help. But that does not solve my problem.

So I've found out a few things again:

I had activated the signal detection to recognize the “rainbow image” and deactivated the lighting at the same time. I did this as described in the forum with the green value at a certain point.

The problem now is that this signal detection is also triggered when the image is black... In the USB Grabber settings I have selected YUYV as the recompressed encoding format as I get the best black here. With MPEG I don't lose any signal with the signal detection while black svreen, but then my LEDs light up dark green, which is quite annoying. Is there possibly a workaround for this?

I have adjusted the gamma value of green to "2" in the colour calibration. It seems to work now
