    Only just seen your message.


    I got it working KIND off .


    after login i have to add this at every startup
    v4l2-ctl -v width=720,height=480,pixelformat=YUYV


    i could not work out how to set it as a start up


    How do i do the auto execute that you are running above ?


    is it possible to get hdr signals to process ?

    [INDENT]Ive got it all working .


    Many Thanks to @Akriss


    Just had loads of dodgy components But all is working good now .


    Next step


    How can i get it to work with HDR & 3d bluray ?


    any ideas ?[/INDENT]



    YEA I have it working


    sort off.


    forgot that i have an rca out from my cable box which seems to work perfectly direct to the grabber.
    Have checked & both grabbers work fine, so it seems the kink in the system seemed to be the HDMI2AV converter ( which was working but now not ) & i am waiting for a new one which should come tomorrow .
    One thing i have noticed is that it does not like swapping from a pal Source to an ntsc ( which does not work ) is there anyway to have both working ?

    OK . got the new grabber & still cant get a screenshot it still locks up the program ?


    Now the hdmi2av has decided to brake so i will have to order another 1 now



    FFS


    Do you think that an unstable signal would cause the grabber to lock the software ?

    Resistor is in , no flickering now .
    I have full control from my mobile & full control from program But still no ambilight.


    Just read this


    Hyperion supports the v412 Grabber which is the most common used for grabbing Ambilight signals.


    Hardware


    You need a grabber with a special chipset and known working grabbers are:


    Mumbi video grabber
    Dazzle DVR
    Fushicai UTV007


    Nonworking grabbers are:
    Logilink



    I have the logilink , just my luck



    Just ordered this so hopefully it works




    ill go out & get a resistor tomorrow & wire it in & will get back to you .


    Thanks again & sorry I'm just impatient & Want it working , it all looked so easy in the videos .

    Config

    The screenshots works very intermittently , on 1 boot they work on another they dont



    every time i try to screenshot i get null device, is that correct



    ssh out: sudo systemctl stop hyperion.service 2>/dev/null; sudo /etc/init.d/hyperion stop 2>/dev/null ; sudo /sbin/initctl stop hyperion 2>/dev/null
    ssh disconnected
    ssh connected
    ssh out: sudo systemctl stop hyperion.service 2>/dev/null; sudo /etc/init.d/hyperion stop 2>/dev/null ; sudo /sbin/initctl stop hyperion 2>/dev/null



    No resistor , but would that stop the lights ?


    even if it took a screen shot U still think its faulty ?
    It is a new one


    Yoy maybe right , i cant get it to take another screenshot now

    Hyperion needs to be shutdown prior the taking screenshot.


    I sure that's detailed in the wiki.



    Have tried that .


    shutdown via program & ssh


    pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo systemctl stop service.hyperion.service
    Failed to stop service.hyperion.service: Unit service.hyperion.service not loaded.



    both ways lock it up

    Hmm. last post has 100000 in the log.


    Ok then you need a resistor on the data line between the Uno and led's. A value between 330 to 470 ohm's usually works good.


    That should calm the led's and show nice effects.



    Sorry that was because i was messing around with it & forgot to change it.


    Ok, next problem i have is the usb grabber when taking a screenshot locks hypercon up ?

    Change the rate in config from:

    Code
    ssh in:     Jan 03 19:56:00 raspberrypi hyperiond[1583]:         "rate" : 100000,


    To 500000, or match what is in the sketch for:

    Code
    #define serialRate




    this is in sketch


    #define serialRate 500000


    its the same rate in the hypercon program


    ssh in: Jan 03 20:30:10 raspberrypi hyperiond[851]: "colorOrder" : "bgr",
    ssh in: Jan 03 20:30:10 raspberrypi hyperiond[851]: "delayAfterConnect" : 0,
    ssh in: Jan 03 20:30:10 raspberrypi hyperiond[851]: "name" : "MyHyperionConfig",
    ssh in: Jan 03 20:30:10 raspberrypi hyperiond[851]: "output" : "/dev/ttyACM0",
    ssh in: Jan 03 20:30:10 raspberrypi hyperiond[851]: "rate" : 500000,
    ssh in: Jan 03 20:30:10 raspberrypi hyperiond[851]: "type" : "adalight"
    ssh in: Jan 03 20:30:10 raspberrypi hyperiond[851]: }
    ssh in: Jan 03 20:30:10 raspberrypi hyperiond[851]: Opening UART: /dev/ttyACM0
    ssh in: Jan 03 20:30:10 raspberrypi hyperiond[851]: INFO: Creating linear smoothing
    ssh in: Jan 03 20:30:10 raspberrypi hyperiond[851]: HYPERION (CS) INFO: Created

    Hmm. thought that command would show more.


    Well, try both ttyACM0 and ttyUSB0. One is likely correct, one is not. process of elimination.


    Restart Hyperion after making changes. One setting well make leds shine the startup. Hopefully =).




    Success


    Kinda

    i have control of the leds now as far as turning them on & off via hyperion ( still no app control ).


    They flash on once ot twice on 1 color then flash like mad on all colors for 10 secs


    What does that tell u ?

    First thing to do is establish the connection between the leds and the uno \.


    When powering on the Uno via usb and the leds are attached and powered separately, as in the fritzing image above. The leds Should blink 3 time then power off. Need to make that happen before another step.



    I changed it back to pin 10.


    The leds do blink 3 times
