Hi All,
First off I'm really enjoying hyperion so far - finally I can have my LED lights work reliably with games and emulators without any side effects.
One thing I am struggling to setup is a config for a 'one colour' hyperion like I had with boblight. With this config all the lights would light up the same colour based on what the average was across the whole screen - I found it much better for slower movies and shows. I have a hyperion.config.json which acheives this, but because ever LED is sampling the whole screen it maxes out the pi's cpu which causes hyperion to lag or not react. Below is a snippet from my config file:
{
"index" : 137,
"hscan" : { "minimum" : 0.0000, "maximum" : 1.0000 },
"vscan" : { "minimum" : 0.0000, "maximum" : 1.0000 }
}
My hardware is 138 WS2801 LED's, a RPi 3 and using the V4L grabber (via a lightberry HD) and Kodi addon.
Any ideas on how I can achieve a 'one colour' backlight without over taxing the RPi 3?
