  • Hdmi grabber?

    Quote from Awawa

    Check the live feed from the grabber (upper right corner). Try to setup resolution and refresh rate manually. After grabber is disconnected it's necessarily to reboot system to work again.


    Good call.


    The grabber displays a vertical bar pattern when there's no signal detected, hence the RGB pattern.


    I got it to work with a standard 4K signal, although with a delay that I need to figure out how to fix - I can't set the frames per second to anything above 5.


    The bigger problem is that it doesn't look like I can pass a 4K HDR signal to the grabber (it just displays the bar pattern), and https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VP37KMB?tag=hyperioforum-21 cannot down-convert an HDR signal to a standard signal without completely washing the image out. Any thoughts on how to make this setup work with HDR?

    @HyperLEDs as you have MJPG device maybe you can my fork as it's intended to improve performance for that type of encoding (MJPG):
    https://github.com/awawa-dev/hyperion.ng/releases


    It contains patches released after Alpha7, Raspbian Buster is recommended. Or you can compile current version of Hyperion to test: beside performance (and one related bug in live preview) I haven't meet any issues.
    But beware there's one problem in Hyperion.NG that can affect you: https://github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/issues/908 (I dont have that dual type of yuyv/mjpg grabber to check it)


    Made some good progress - Hyperion.NG is now installed and correctly controlling the LEDs. The video grabber is correctly detected. However, when I select the video grabber as the source, I just see an RGB pattern on the LEDs on the top and bottom of my TV - this pattern occurs whether I have something connected to the grabber or not.

    Many thanks - I'll try to build from Master and see what happens.

    @HyperLEDs it's seems it's rather software problem from old Hyperion (operation not permited for that device) because linux drivers is perfectly OK. Trouble with MJPG device was the main and only reason I've migrated to Hyperion.NG. But the store is still pending as I improve it's performance.


    For the old hyperion and that device causes you VIDIOC_S_INPUT ERROR 22 could try add --pixel-format YUYV to command line


    Thanks for your help. the additional argument didn't work.


    I tried installing Hyperion.NG a few weeks ago, but I ran into so many issues just trying to get it to install properly (e.g. processes not running as root when they should be, DMA channel problems, random colors being shown on the strip as a result of a known bug in alpha v7). If you have a simple recommendation for getting a version of Hyperion.NG installed that works, I could try that to see if the grabber works.

    I tried dev/video0 and input 1 and I now get a different error:

    Well, the first registered device is MJPG, it doesnt work with old Hyperion and the new version has some performance isssue but it should work somehow. Try second instance of video device ...it's seems it's yuyv.



    Same error - I've read that the "VIDIOC_S_INPUT ERROR 25, Inappropriate ioctl for device" indicates an incompatible chipset, is that not true?


    Code
    2>/dev/null ; hyperion-v4l2 --device /dev/video1 --video-standard NTSC --input 0 --width -1 --height -1 --crop-left 0 --crop-right 0 --crop-top 0 --crop-bottom 0 --size-decimator 1 --frame-decimator 2 --red-threshold 0.0 --green-threshold 0.0 --blue-threshold 0.0 --screenshot

    @HyperLEDs dmesg looks good and v4l2 capture device is active ...and what are symptoms that the grabbers doesn't work? Hyperion.NG doesn't detect it and there is no info on the www usb grabber configuration page? or the black screen from the grabber or something else maybe?


    I'm using Hyperion, not NG. When I try to grab a screenshot from HyperCon, I get "No picture found check ssh traffic. Stop Hyperion before you take a screenshot!"


    And the logs show:


    Code
    2>/dev/null ; hyperion-v4l2 --device /dev/video0 --video-standard NTSC --input 0 --width -1 --height -1 --crop-left 0 --crop-right 0 --crop-top 0 --crop-bottom 0 --size-decimator 1 --frame-decimator 2 --red-threshold 0.0 --green-threshold 0.0 --blue-threshold 0.0 --screenshot

    @HyperLEDs Paste full dmesg & v4l2-ctl --list-formats. This grabber should work.


    dmesg



    v4l2-ctl --list-formats



    v4l2-ctl --all


  • Do any working video grabbers actually exist?

    Yes here, I use it at the moment:

    The black one.


    But I see you already tried it and it doesn't work for you, so maybe your problem is not the grabber...


    I think it's the grabber:

    I've got that one and it works.

  • Do any working video grabbers actually exist?

    I've gone through 3 video grabbers - all of them falsely advertised as containing a compatible chipset. The only thing preventing me from using Hyperion at the moment is a working video grabber.


    Are there any working UTVF007 chipset grabbers available for sale anywhere?

  • Hdmi grabber?

    Quote from Cavoixanha

    You buy type A, B, C or D


    This grabber doesn't work - I ordered what everyone here suggested, waited a month to receive it, only to see it's the wrong chipset.


    I've gone through three grabbers now without any luck - the most difficult part about using hyperion seems to be finding a grabber that actually works. I'm out of ideas. Anyone know of a confirmed grabber with a compatible chipset?


    Here are the details for the 4th grabber on the right (D) from the link above:
