can you wait until we make an official release candidat? we haven't start to develop install process and system integration yet.
Currently we have other todo's and discussing that topic at this time is not productive. We appreciate your tests when it's time.
sure, just wanted to report it sorry
last but least:
after removing all hyperion related files and recompile it installs to /usr/local/share/hyperion while to config of the effects folder points to "/usr/share/hyperion/effects"
Id also like to mention that also the folder /usr/local/share/hyperion/effect is non writable by default, which i think should be edited in the install script. Had to work my way around to chmod +x and chown that folder (could be local issue, idk)
and
why not put hyperion.config.json in /etc/hyperion, i just want to try to understand the process of it, is it there so any user profile can access it or for any other reasons?
i just post my random questions in here so i wont spam this forum 
Hi im not sure if this is already picket up somewere but i had to manually change the hyperion.service files to it new paths.
Looks like hyperion had a lot of different install paths in the past.
@/usr/hyperion i believe
@/usr/share/hyperion
@/usr/local/share/hyperion and possible a few others in the begin that i cant remember.
And each time i had to update my hyperion.service file after hours of debugging what was wrong in the first place. Im not a dev so good but i understand basis coding. Will the NG version "generate" or create this service on ubuntu systems in the future automaticly or not?
Thank You for this great app and if been here from the beginning. When i get my next salary, i will defintly do a donation.
i hope i dont sound rough cause english is not my native language. Thank You again

Anyway got it all working 
so whats this? V2.1.0?
anyway all settings that i save in the webui doesnt get submitted. And still cannot load it. I did compile the latest version from guithub hyperion-ng
TY
use latest hyperion.ng and use webui to edit config
were can i find V2.1.0 i downloaden the one your guthub and recompiled but the webui says its still on 2.0.0, wanne upgrade first before i try the settings in the webui
EDIT: i know this is dev only, but cant use the install button on the webui cause it wont upgrade
TY
I can become a tester if you guys need people, i have an core 2 duo linux system with kodi as an standalone application. Therefore i use ws2801 leds for kodi.
EDIT 2 : cant submit any setting either from the webUI
What if found out is that in the webpage it doesnt see my effect paths
Tried that with sudo hyperiond stop / sudo hyperion start. Still no effect. The most strange thing is that it stopped working just randomly. Maybe an ubuntu update caused it?
Could you try the effect? I didn't change anything in the code after it worked but maybe it's handy to verify the files are correct.
if it ask for an code:
P2NmU6p
i change the code to:
"effects" :
{
"paths" :
[
"/usr/share/hyperion/effects"
],
"disable" :
[
"SystemShutdown2",
"SystemShutdown2"
]
and remove the first paths line, still nothing
i did a chmod and chown on both files, still nothing 
Till here goes my knowledge
tried it, didnt work
also the following piece of line doesn't work like it used to do:
"initialEffect" :
{
"background-effect" : ["Full color mood blobs"],
//"background-effect-args" : {},
"foreground-effect" : ["SystemShutdown2"],
//"foreground-effect-args" : {},
"foreground-duration_ms" : 7000"effects" :
{
"paths" :
[
"/storage/hyperion/effects",
"/usr/share/hyperion/effects"
],
Hi I edited the shutdown effect
the following command works fine (cause the blue mood blobs are baked into the code)
hyperion-remote -e "Blue mood blobs"
but my own effect doesn't load at all. Its located in
usr/share/hyperion/effects called shutdown2.py and shutown2.json
{
"name" : "SystemShutdown2",
"script" : "shutdown2.py",
"args" :
{
"speed" : 1.2,
"alarm-color" : [255,0,0],
"post-color" : [255,174,11],
"shutdown-enabled" : false
}
}
[//CODE]
neither:
hyperion-remote -e "SystemShutDown2"
hyperion-remote -e "shutdown2"
are working.
Is the effect placed in the wrong location?
TYin the hyperion.config.json file there is an smoothing option, i believe if you do search on the forums you will all the answers you need about smoothing, i cannot help you with the other problem sry
is this an update for the hyperion app?
change smoothing settings
what do you need i can do photoshop
look really nice, i would suggest to try ambibox or prismatik on windows. I dont think the lights are very cool when gaming but for the backgrounds an pictures, lets screensaver it would be awesome!
Hyperion aborts, if your .json don't match the current development
check your .json file against this example: (your v4l2 part seems not up2date) https://github.com/hyperion-pr…erion.config.json.default
It will break regulary
ah thanks! that makes sence to me i will remake the custom configure to the new sample
EDIT: Confirmed working thank you!
