I actually turned the debug back on so i could take the screenshot.....i don't know what the dev stands for but it IS on com3, figured it out when i installed the drivers manually for the arduino... same type of results when i do the 0.0.0.0 RE: [RELEASE] Official XBMC boblight Addon - Memphiz - 2012-03-23 using boblight-constant is as easy as doing boblight-constant FF0000 this would turn all leds RED ... 00FF00 all green, 0000FF all blue. Just start boblightd and instead of using XBMC start boblight-constant with the wanted parameters on a commandline.

RE: [RELEASE] Official XBMC boblight Addon - bobo1on1 - 2012-03-27 Put a space on every empty line in boblight.conf and check if that makes any difference.

RE: [RELEASE] Official XBMC boblight Addon - hotlobster - 2012-03-28 Quote:Well I have a 6Amp power supply...it will need updating so prevent overloading but it should work temporarily to get us working. 6 amp should be far sufficient. Each strip can draws 1.8 amps when full bright, you should reach 7 amp only exeptionnaly, nothing a 6 amp psu can't handle sporadicaly. I'm interested of Sparkfun answer on your request. Can you pm me when they answer you ? Cheers. RE: [RELEASE] Official XBMC boblight Addon - FocalFury - 2012-03-29 OK SO I HAVE PROGRESS!!! ALL LED STRANDS light up red blue green denoting a successful upload of the arduino code. I started from scratch...new XBMC install....new boblight download...everything however I'm missing something probably small and I can't remember how to fix this part.... when I start boblightd I get this Error....however it does connect successfully it says ERROR: unable to make directory /home/Dan/.boblight/: No such file or directory exists after that though it connects and goes on its merry way....when I start XBMC it says it is succesfully connected to boblight but there is no light output that I would expect... ideas Thank you all for your continued help, I've spent more time on this than I feel I should have had to and I'm really thankful for the help that has been provided screen cap of the error http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1545535/IMG_20120329_005859.jpg RE: [RELEASE] Official XBMC boblight Addon - MrHenky - 2012-03-29 I'm trying to get the boblight windows version working but I'm struggeling with problems that I can't identify. I have an Adalight setup (50leds, Arduino Uno) like some other people in this forum. It works pretty well with that Lightpack software but those who are able to run boblight prefer boblight. I want that too. In my case, the com-port seems to be correct but I don't know if I should ignore the first error message or not. Using /dev/ttyS0 isn't working either. Same error message. If I change the com-port I'll get "No such file or directory", so it's not the port. It's really com1 btw. Any of the boblight windows users here, who can give me some help? Here is my boblight.conf setup: Code: #config file for adalight from http://www.ladyada.net/make/adalight/ Windows command shell Code: C:\Boblight>boblightd -c boblight.conf RE: [RELEASE] Official XBMC boblight Addon - bobo1on1 - 2012-03-29 (2012-03-29, 07:16)FocalFury Wrote: OK SO I HAVE PROGRESS!!!boblightd wants to write a logfile in the home directory from the user it runs as, but it can't make the file, nothing to worry about.

I want that too. I've seen that before, apparently if you use a different program first to open the com port, and then open it with boblightd it works ok, I suspect it's a problem in cygwin.

Hoping to resolve this today and then i'll be able to mount my TV within the day RE: [RELEASE] Official XBMC boblight Addon - bobo1on1 - 2012-03-29 Then there's probably something configured wrong in boblight.conf, maybe the prefix value or the baudrate. RE: [RELEASE] Official XBMC boblight Addon - FocalFury - 2012-03-29 seems to be it was a problem with the prefix.... changed it from 51 AA to prefix 41 64 61 00 63 36 Its working just I'm missing the last 10 or so LED's for XBMC/playback...just gonna review my .conf Well.....99.9% successful here. starting boblightd all LED's flash red/green/blue When I connect to XBMC it flashes all LED's and works in playback....except for the last 8 LED's pic of the LED's on XBMC home screen....does the same thing for playback http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1545535/IMG_20120329_155807.jpg i've double checked my .conf file I think it must have to do with the calculator setting that I've used I've verrified...twice...that this is the amount of LED's I have on the strip is it possible I need some sort of custom spacing...that maybe the calculator is putting them too close together and i'm missing LED's or something like that my calc profile http://sanya.tarhelyszolgaltato.eu/index.php?w1=0&h1=0&w2=1920&h2=1080&x=34&y=20&wcm=82&hcm=46&r=100&g=100&b=100&customw=80&customh=70&ol=20&ro=1&rs=37&comb=40 RE: [RELEASE] Official XBMC boblight Addon - bobo1on1 - 2012-03-29 What happens when you set a background color in the boblight addon, do they light up? If not then there's probably still something wrong with the prefix. |
