    Mama,


    So, the last LED doesn't work in Hyperion effects at all, but the initial double white burst does work? Our symptoms match exactly, except for that one detail. My last LED works on everything EXCEPT responding to what's on the screen. Startup flash worked on all 222 before I disabled it, Hyperion effects work (including if I add a startup effect to the Hyperion config, it responds to the color wheel in HyperCon and the Hyperion app. Very weird....

  • 4K Capable HDMI Splitter/USB Capture All-In-One Availability

    All,


    Does anyone know if it's possible to source a device like this:


    https://lightberry.eu/shop/shop/hdmi-kit-4-2/


    I have the previous version of this device that supports up to 1080p and I'm thinking of upgrading my TV to a 4K set.


    At one point I was able to find the previous version from another vendor, unbranded with the Lightberry branding, off of Amazon at a much lower price, but I haven't been able to find the 4K equivalent anywhere.


    Thanks.

    Mama,


    We're running very similar setups. Is the last LED in your string responding to what's on the screen? Mine works fine on the Arduino startup and in Hyperion effects, but not when reacting to the screen.

  • Last LED in string doesn't work

    All,


    I got my Ambilight system mostly up and running this weekend. I'm using a RPi3 and a (clone) Arduino Uno to run a string of WS2812 LEDs, using the built-in V4L2 grabber pulling input from an STK1160 USB capture device.


    The good news:

    • All LEDs blink just fine as part of the Arduino startup routine (and I've now disabled that so it goes straight to it's "ready" mode.
    • All LEDs respond to effects picked via the HyperCon Android app. It switches back to actively responding to what's on the screen when I turn the effect off.


    The weird part:

    • Almost all LEDs update and react to what's on the screen without issue, with the exception of the last LED in the string.


    As I said, all LEDs blinked in the Arduino's startup sequence before I disabled it, and all LEDs work fine in effects and the color wheel.


    I am using the Arduino Sketch found @ https://github.com/hyperion-pr…ino/adalight/adalight.ino. When I was setting it up initially I ran into a problem with the last LED not lighting up until I commented out the following part of the Sketch:


    Code
    if (ANALOG_MODE == ANALOG_MODE_LAST_LED) {
ledCount--;
}


    That brought the last LED online in the start-up sequence (though I couldn't find where I could have misconfigured the Analog options that would have made it go through that if statement), but not for the actual Ambilight operation.


    I then took the Sketch and edited out ALL the analog configuration and function parts. The result can be found here: [MEDIA=pastebin]hsEZFM4F[/MEDIA]


    My config file can be found here: [MEDIA=pastebin]X21BcF2y[/MEDIA]


    I have a total of 222 LEDs in my string, which is set in the config file, with it showing config for LEDs 0 through 221.


    And for completeness, here is the results grabbed from my log after starting/re-starting Hyperion.



    Anyone have any thoughts about what could be causing this (honestly minor) issue?

    Zitat von Akriss

    :thumbup: Sharper eyes then me.


    That exact problem drove me nuts for an hour this past weekend. I'm down to 2 small other issues (Effects don't work, either via the Hyperion startup sequence or via HyperCon from my phone; and the last LED in the string doesn't light even though the Adalight script blinks it in ITS startup and I have the proper number of LEDs defined in my config), but that's best saved for a thread of its own.

    Out of curiosity, what happens when you change the Type parameter to "Adalight" in the Hypercon config?


    I'm running a similar setup to yours and I didn't get any response from the Arduino until I changed the Type parameter.
