Need to find some time, a 5 meter roll waits for testing
Are there any news on this yet ? -
Try updating drivers for your graphics card. and do a fresh install of java.

ok i figured it out by myself now. I first did a fresh install of Openelec instead of Libreelec. After that installed Hyperion again and it was working partly.
Last thing i had to do was disable the Black Border Detection in the Code manually, since LEDs on top wouldnt turn on. -
I have a question about the powersupply: I'm using a 5V/20A supply.
Is it possible to use this with the APA102/60. The length is 4,50 metersAPA102/60 uses max 18W/m
18W/m x 4,5m = 81WYour supply offers 5V x 20A = 100W
So yes, this should work you even have some reserve.

yes they do need strong color adjustments, i get really good results with :
white at R:255 G:74 B:46
gamma: R:3,04 G:2,5 B: 2,5I am having problems with overall brightness though since updating to new version of hyperion... I dont think its a chip problem though
-> if somebody has left some apa102 over and wants to sell them please contact me via PN. if i can get enough leds for my 49" TV i would like to give these leds a try.

Yesterday i updated my Rpi with recent stable release of Libreelec and the newest version of Hyperion.
If i select a color in my Colorwheel and sent it to the RPi via SSH e.g.: R.255 G:0 B:0 the red (LED brightness) will be much brighter compared to if i select a completly red image and use the internal grabber.
the red grabbed internal from a total red image (R:255 G:0 B:0) would be approximatly equal to a red from the colorwheel with the values R:128 G:0 B:0.
-the rainbow swirl at start is also working as supposed
Using: Rpi2, Libreelec, WS2801
configuration:
