Hyperion/HyperCon Android Development

Zitat von Brindosch

Looks great so far

I would also recommend to split it. There is no real benefit to bloat the main application with it. However, drm and kodi might be a problem yes. But in case it won't work you could still use it for everything else, like games and your own drm free movies.
It's another way to feed Hyperion and more possibilities are good?!

As i see you splitted "add new device" and zeroconf? Might be worth to combine them, if you want to add a new device, scan for some seconds and compare the saved list(ip|port) against the results. If no new instances are found, provide the manual input.
Edit2: On the other hand you scan on startup. Hm, i need a hands on

Yeah that's a good point I agree. Hopefully, Kodi does not enable the secure flag at all.

It already scans for ZeroConf device on launch. It discovers ZeroConf device and adds them above the saved ones.

Thanks for the info.

Am I right in thinking the brightness and the color wheel is achieved using Set Colour and a Transform (e.g. value) in two commands via json?

Do you mean brightness of the colour or the lights? If you are referring to the colour you can do this by the 'setcolor' command.

@BioHaZard1 Any change of alpha / beta APK package or not ready for that yet?

Really missing my remote with Hyperion.ng for testing and what not so would be great if we have something for Android again.

Sure, I'll upload one as soon as I can. There are a few bugs, nothing major really:
- Occasionally on the first launch, my app will refuse to initiate a connection with Hyperion, resulting in a constant spinning circle. Just kill the app and open it again and it will work. It's something to do with the new code I added to receive commands from Hyperion.
- Sometimes I get a force close, it usually only happens when you're viewing a list (RecyclerView). It's a known Android bug (indexoutofboundsexception)

Those are the main ones I can think of. Of course, it isn't finished yet so sections might not be complete or look right just yet. Most of the Hyperion side is working though, just a few minor bugs here and there.

Here is the Alpha for Hyperion-ng for Android :):

No problem, happy to hear your feedback

- I had a feeling that would happen, zero-conf isn't great on Android unfortunately. Which phone are you using? I know this has some issues with Samsung devices but I thought I fixed it
- I forgot to disable that section, as you can tell the SSH/Setup Wizard isn't finished anyway. The whole purpose of this was to enable the user to install Hyperion without the need of a computer or screen. I use mine headless so this would make the process much easier.
- There is actually a zero-conf scan on startup, well it starts and continues to run. If it finds a device it will add it above saved devices. If you look at this screen capture below, the zero-conf device is the one at the top. I should really add a message up there e.g. "No zero-conf devices found"
- Do you mean an option to turn Hyperion on/off?

Thanks for the feedback.

Edit: Fixed 2 force closes on the Calibration fragment.

Weird, a Galaxy A5 2017

Yes, the overall switch. Is maybe even better than the clearall command that you currently have at the top. You can place "clear this app prio" besides (if people miss it)

Will check your update soon!

Strange, I don't have any Samsung devices so it's hard for me to test, all my devices are Nexus. I did manage to try it on a Samsung Galaxy S5, S7 and S8 and it seems to work fine. I'll look into it, could you try with this app: https://play.google.com/store/…k.servicebrowser&hl=en_GB This is the guy who developed the library I'm using for zero-conf.

Okay, I've done that.
