Hello Guys,
I have some problems with my ambilight system. Some of the LEDs are flickering in different colours. The problem occurs only when I want to control the LEDs with an external grabber (eg. HDMI device). When I am starting a video on openelec (using internal grabber) then the problem does not occur.
2 videos which should show the problem:
It looks like some LEDs can't decide which colour they want to show. The majority of the LEDs are getting controlled correctly but some not. This problem also occurs when the video is not getting played.
I am using the following things:
- Openelec (8.0.4)
- RPI3
- WS2801 RGB LED-Stripe
- USB Video grabber:
- HDMI 2 AV converter:
- HDMI splitter:
Attatched you can find:
- Screenshot of grabbed picture for external grabber
- Hyperion.json.config
- blueprint of the connection (from Powerpi.de)
I did use the german tutorial of powerpi.de to create my ambilight with the RPI.
I really hope some of you genius guys can help me out.
BR
Manuel
