Thats too bad, i'd love it if i could get things working with just one box, but i happen to have a spare raspPI laying around, and i got that working. However i'm using libreelec and it seems kind of wasteful to have kodi running on a pi that is just used to run boblightd (or hyperion.) Does anyone have a suggestion on an distro that would work without wasting resources to just run kodi that will never be seen. This RasPI will headless.
I'm guessing that the boblightd code could be ported by a motivated android developer (maybe it is worth looking in to it myself. Even if it is just to run as a boblight server and not a capture of any kind (we will let kodi handle the capture) We have access to the a usb serial device (you might have to be root, which isn't a problem at least for my devices)
Just thinking out loud, anyone interested in using an android hosted boblightd, or interested in writing the code themselves?
