RE: HOW-TO setup Boblight for Windows and Boblight XBMC - koajx89 - 2014-01-27 HI EgYpT, The "Proccessing" tool from the Adafruit site, is old and not so fast... If you want a easy setup you should download AmbiBox http://www.ir-max.ru/download.php?lang=english# I know this site seems not legit.. but it is.. its just some russian who made this awesome easy tool :-) just play around with it and let me know if you need any help....

Processing is not a good tool. Don't use that. You can go also for a software like Prismatik. You might also consider using boblight. There are some usable versions in this thread I guess.

Thank you so much and sorry for the delay. I'll try Prismatik and then boblight RE: HOW-TO setup Boblight for Windows and Boblight XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-02-11 I am having the same error as Oxize above - stackdump although it appears to be working ok to that point. Code: C:\boblightd>boblightd.exe -c boblight.conf Any ideas? I am using the conf above RE: HOW-TO setup Boblight for Windows and Boblight XBMC - TeKo - 2014-02-11 Could you upload or post the content of the .stackdump file? But I guess if its working that shouldnt be a problem. RE: HOW-TO setup Boblight for Windows and Boblight XBMC - Buck3ytucker - 2014-02-13 I have followed these instructions and set up the config file but there seems to be something weird going on. I will open the start.exe and the command prompt will flash then disappear. I was able to take a screen shot through some perfect timing. I am using a lightpack 30LED system, on windows 7 64-bit. I believe i have the config file correct but will attach it here. When I open XBMC it says it cannot connect to Boblight, I assume that boblight never actually opens. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

If it does you should see something in the console. Try to right click on boblightd.exe -> properties -> compatibility and check Run as admin. That should solve the problem.

I tried that and it produces the same result. Any other ideas? I did attempt to run boblightd.exe through the command prompt (run as administrator) and got this error: ERROR: unable to make directory /home/user/.boblight/: Nosuch file or directory (PrintFlags) starting boblightd (CConfig::LoadCOnfigFromFile) opening /etc/bob/light.conf (CConfig::LoadCOnfigFromFile) ERROR: etc/boblight.config: No such file or directory RE: HOW-TO setup Boblight for Windows and Boblight XBMC - TeKo - 2014-02-13 thats normal its looking for the linux file structure, thats why you have to use the "-c" command with the path to the boblight.conf. RE: HOW-TO setup Boblight for Windows and Boblight XBMC - uncleted - 2014-02-14 Also stack dumps here, it's not the admin compatibility and it's not that it can't access the .conf file. Same error message, although I could pass it on for you. Interestingly I built my own version of the latest source using Cygwin and it does the same thing... Do you have any older builds I can try out? RE: HOW-TO setup Boblight for Windows and Boblight XBMC - TeKo - 2014-02-15 Nope sorry, formated my PC and only have the latest version on mediafire. But since you have everything setup to compile just checkout an older version and compile it. But I dont think its going to help. RE: HOW-TO setup Boblight for Windows and Boblight XBMC - uncleted - 2014-02-16 Yep thought of doing that too, but haven't got round to it yet. Are you doing anything special to handle the USB stuff in Cygwin? I'm a bit out of it in working on the Unix side of things, but I thought libusb had limitations on Windows.. Unless they have fixed that in newer builds. Could be related to a newer firmware on Lightpack I guess. If I have any luck I will post back in here. RE: HOW-TO setup Boblight for Windows and Boblight XBMC - uncleted - 2014-02-17 I switched the Lightpack driver to WinUSB using Zadig and commented out the libusb_detach_kernel_driver call from lightpack device code. It works for me now without crashing. Not sure if WinUSB is really required so I'll have a bit more of a play to find out. |
