LEDs wont turn on after booteffect - Cannot connect to host

  • When I start Hyperion the LEDs will all light up in a rainbow of colors so I know they are working. But after that booteffect they just stop working. If I try to use the hypercon to set the LEDs to a single color I always get:


    Code
    ssh: $ /storage/hyperion/bin/hyperion-remote.sh  -c 2e18ff
    ssh: hyperion-remote:
    ssh:     version   : V1.03.4 (brindosch-c750c41/dc6a602-1522918225
    ssh:     build time: Apr  5 2018 01:57:05
    ssh Error: Unable to connect to host


    The logs don't show anything either:



    I should also note a couple things.


    1) I am not powering this LED strip with an external power brick, there are only 94 LEDs total and they are being powered directly from the PI.
    2) Before I had cut LED strip and fixed it to my TV sides, I plugged it directly into my pi and used Hypercon to set ALL the LEDs by specifying the set up as a single side of my TV has 128 LEDs and nothing else. So that way every single LED on the strip was addressable by Hypercon because it thought only a single side of the TV had LEDs and I was able to us the color wheel to set them all to yellow. o it's weird to me that they no longer work at all now.



    Could this be because it's not getting enough power?


    I have uploaded my config as well.

  • Looks like it was a powering issue. I ended up splicing the ground and 5v wires and powering the LED directly with a power supply as opposed to using the RPI and that seems to have done the trick.
