Cant get apa 102 to work anymore

  • Long story short, about 1 year ago i made my own ambilight with a rpi zero w and apa102 leds and it work fine with a grabber.
    After i moved to my new house it just stop worked, so i replaced the rpi zero w with a rpi 3 because my usb hub was gving me problems with the zero.


    But now i cant get anything to work, i even made a "dummy" with 4 leds just to get it to light up but i cant get it to work.



    Pics of my rpi with just 4 leds,
    Di connected to pin 19
    CI connected to pin 23

    In my normal rig i got a 10A 5V PSU but i think that the rpi shuld be able to handle 4 leds?


    What i have done so far:
    Flashed open elec (8.04)and get it started on my rpi.
    Installed hyperion from Hypercon in Windows 10
    Sent config file and restarted my rpi after
    Connected to start hyperion but i get no light to show any boot effect and the color picker dont work ether.


    Here is my config files:

    I really hope that someone can help me here just to get the lights to light up, if i get the 4 led rig to work i will try to get my 150 led rig to work with grabber but that seems to be far away atm.


    Best regards Lasse

  • SPI enabled?


    I found some good info from another projects that use apa102 led's and Raspi's, one in particular ( github.com/tinue/APA102_Pi ).


    Hope it helps.

  • I got dtparam=spi=on in the config.txt so i guess that i got spi on.
    EDIT: Is the path for the json file correct that hyperion is trying to save the config?


    sftp Send Hyperion Config - Sourcepath: C:/Users/Lasse/Desktop/Hypercon, Targetpath: /storage/.config/, Filename: hyperion.config.json
