Hyperion Server On Windows 10 With Ubuntu Bash (WSL)

Zitat von drc85

i google alot i dont know how to get it to work... how didu guys got hyperion running on windows in the bash??

I build from source - I’ve never used the installer

i managed to get the hyperion service + multipliple instances of it, running on WSL
i just had to get better linux knowledge first lol
the errors in the installation was about the autostart (init is autostart stuff i think ??)
i still couldnt find a beginner friendly solution / skript for the autostart...
i always have to start the bash and have to enter the commands manually to start...

i dont have a usb grabber yet -.-..
i will get one on the first..
i hope it works on wsl, this would be awesome!
i got kodi setup really nice on windows, would be a shame to switch to linux just because of the ambilight

i know there are windows programms like hyperion also but from what i heard hyperion is the best

Good work!

USB grabbers probably won’t work with WSL.

You could try the kodi addon for Hyperion to send the led data from kodi and/or the DirectX grabber

thx, i think kodi add on would work for kodi but what about a grabber?
im not sure about the driect x grabber? how does it works?

im a little bit confused..
is it possible with this https://hyperion-project.org/t…ws-screen-grabber.1018/to send the usbgrabber signal to the kodi hyperion add on?

What do you want to be capturing ?

1) Kodi on Windows ? Try the kodi addon
2) All windows apps ? Try the direct X grabber
3) An external signal like a blue ray player or cable tv box ? This isn’t so simple. Right now you can’t use a USB grabber with Hyperion on WSL. If you can use a USB grabber and have kodi play that video then options 1 or 2 above might work.

Note; I’ve not tried any capture stuff with windows - I’ve just tested the LED and effect side with WSL

i want to get the ambilight from a extern hdmi signal ( basically one signal my receiver has two hdmi out)

i looked at the windows grabber software... im not exactly sure it says monitor and adapter?
what is meant exactly with adapter? a usb grabber or a gpu?

i could let the usb grabber display the input video signal fullscreen to a "second monitor"...
if the second method can grab the the whole second screen i could use this signal to run hyperion ..
it maybe be possible this way.

did you manage to get hyperion-ng to work?

when i try hyperion-ng on wsl:

[hyperiond LedDevice] <ERROR> The requested device operation is not supported or prohibited by the running operating system. Device disabled.

when i try hyperion-ng on wsl:

[hyperiond LedDevice] <ERROR> The requested device operation is not supported or prohibited by the running operating system. Device disabled.

I have the same ERROR I installed Hyperion-ng on the Ubuntu WSL but it won't work with my serial connected Arduino.
With CU the connection works properly and i get the correct Output "ADA"

I have "straced" the following output:

Maybe this will help to find the bug...

I compiled and installed hyperion again, so i cant try but you could, can you

sudo passwd root
su
and then try again hyperiond? I have read somewere that only root worked with his device. Please report back so i can also give a try

Hey, i have tried it as you suggested. But this doesn't work either.

it seems that TIOCSTI is not supported in the actual Windows build... https://github.com/Microsoft/WSL/issues/1863

So does the old hyperion software work for you in WSL with serial Hardware?

Yes the old hyperion does work, but not grabbing screen as the i mentioned here :
https://hyperion-project.org/t…/proton-not-working.3057/
. Onyl colour effects and static colours works

Maybe it is possible to add the old serial connection for wsl to Hyperion.ng
