Ok thank you, If its going to be l might have to wait a bit.

Any idea when this is going to be released and can be updated normally?

Thanks

Ahh ok I see, thank you for that

I just tried to add the nightly builds and update, but I still get the, I'm on the latest version

hyperion@hyperbian:~ $ echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/hyperion.pub.gpg] https://nightly.apt.releases.hyperion-project.org/ $(lsb_release -cs) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hyperion.nightly.list
deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/hyperion.pub.gpg] https://nightly.apt.releases.hyperion-project.org/ bookworm main
hyperion@hyperbian:~ $ sudo apt-get install hyperion

hyperion is already the newest version (2.0.16~bookworm).

Getting the info from here

Hyperion-Project Repository

Is there something Im missing from the instructions?

Where, its not there? I was posting that to show you I don't have it. Am I missing something here?

This is my UI here

Just to show you; I have Advanced settings on the clasic layout. But not on the matrix layout

Thanks,

so the LED is 8 wide, by 128 high. But it seems I can only go 50 high. That could be fine though for now, Im more interested in getting it working.

I don't have these advanced settings (as the screenshots above) on any difficulty level (advanced or expert) what am I missing?

I do have that Thanks

But when I try to input my matrix into the LED layout, it keeps resetting each time I click into it?



Its 8 X 128 I've inputted that and saved it 20 times, each time I come back to this screen, it wipes it.

Ok, some testing and it seems like I can only get a max of 8 x 50? Is that the limit 400LEDs?



That seems to save.

How can I position it though? How does it know where it is in relation to the screen?

I did find this post that goes into it

https://github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/issues/1696

But I dont have these settings at any level.



When looking to update Hyberbian, It tells me its on the latest.

hyperion@hyperbian:~ $ sudo apt-get install hyperion

hyperion is already the newest version (2.0.16~bookworm).

Why has there been no releases in a year, do I need a beta version?

Very confusing software this lol

Did you ever work this out?

I have added two WLEDs as a right and left matrix (H124XW8) and then have the typical LEDs around the back of the TV. ANd want to use all three.

Did you ever fix this?

Hey all,

WS2812 on GPIO 18 Pi 3

Checking on my V9 instance of HyperBian, seen an upgrade mentioned. Sadly no way to upgrade though the UI so decided to start again (with screenshots taken of the settings) with the new version V10 (after a promises of easier usability in the release notes)

Now my lights don't work at all. All settings the same, and nothing. Do have this in the logs;

Device disabled, device 'ws281x' signals error: 'Failed to open. Error message: mmap() failed'

Looking around and seeing something about running in root? Very confused about this, Im using the HyperBian image (2021-07-18-HyperBian-lite) I guess the latest.

If you're going to release an image that can be directly flashed with SSH not enabled (with the "user friendly setup" connotation that implies), why would you not have all this configured to run correctly?

Looking a bit more there is a pull request for a script to be added to HyperBian.

I just have no idea why;

A) the download is still up or, maybe more importantly.

B) this info is not front and center on the HyperBian project page.

How are casual users meant to understand what the hell is going on if the devs are not sharing the info

Now to pull everything apart again and downgrade to v9

Apologies for this being a little rant-y, but common guys, give me the rights, ill update the bloody page.

Oh FFS, I cant even downgrade be cause the only have the latest release

Update your doco, it only takes a min to do and saves a lot of frustration for people using your product.
