Thanks for the input, I will try to get my hands on another Pi 3, my only unused Pis are Zeros and I don't think they have enough power for ambilight.

I did many reboots, but nothing, I also tried hyperiond, but recording to the changelog Alpha 11 changed it to hyperion.
CodeThe Systemd/Upstart/System-V-Init service registers Hyperion under the name hyperion instead of hyperiond, as this has caused confusion among users in the past.
I really don't want to try everything again, I hope Lord-Grey has an idea, otherwise the leds will stay on my tv as a memorial.

Yes
output when I try it again:

I also did that, but still, nothing, the service doesn't exist.

Thanks for all the infos Lightning-guy77, but now it's worse.
I installed everything but now the hyperion service won't start at all. I also can't start it manually, because the service isn't found. Also I can't add it as a service.
pi@HyperBian:~ $ sudo systemctl enable --quiet hyperion@root.service --now
Failed to enable unit: Unit file hyperion@root.service does not exist.

I also had the idea to try a different version, but I lack the knowledge on how to install an alpha version. Could you give me a hint?

I think I read every thread about this combination and I did everything and now Hyperion thinks everything is fine, but the leds stay dark.
My first attempt- Flash Raspberry Pi OS Lite
- Install Hyperion
- Adding blacklist entries etc. because I can't use analog audio
- Setting Hyperion up to start as root
- Select an idle effect
- Reported as working, but the leds show nothing

I'm really out of ideas here, the setup worked ages ago with a raspi 2 and the old Hyperion, but the USB controller of the raspi 2 died and I switched to a bigger TV anyway.
Here is the debug log, but there is really nothing in there:

The wiring is also correct, ground to ground on an external 5 V power supply and to ground on the pi (pin 6). 5 V to 5V on the external power supply and data to pin 12 aka GPIO 18 on the Pi 3. I also checked every connection with a multimeter and checked the 5 V on the stripe.
I'm on Hyperion 2.0.12.
I'm really out of ideas here, I found a few people with the same problem, but most just end it with "I bought an Arduino to fix it." or "I bought other leds to fix it."
best regards
