software like Ambibox ?
well we got a parts list what's needed to set it up,
we're only missing a step by step guide with screenshots for the software setup
when i got all my parts i will also make a showcase and perhaps a step by step guide in 1 topic if no one else already made it in the meanwhile

There is a guide for doing the software upload to the Arduino (amongst other things) is here: http://learn.adafruit.com/adalight-diy-a...v-lighting
The software that needs to be downloaded for those steps:
The Arduino IDE: http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software
The Arduino Processing Software: http://processing.org/download/?processing
Make sure that you have the Windows driver installed correctly: For the Uno and Others and For the Leonardo
The software to initially upload to the board: https://github.com/adafruit/Adalight/tre.../LEDstream
The software for initial testing in the Arduino IDE: https://github.com/adafruit/Adalight/tre...Processing
Lastly:
The AmbiBox Software: http://www.ir-max.ru/download.php?filena..._2.1.4.zip
The latest script to use in XBMC: https://github.com/AmbiBox/AmbiBox-XBMC/...master.zip
The COM port thing can be painful. But you need to know that for AmbiBox. Basically Windows will assign a different com port when you plug into a different USB port and sometimes, it seems, whenever it feels like it. Just look under Control Panel -> Device Manager -> Ports
I'll see if I can condense all of the info from the thread and write a post that perhaps can be a sticky in this thread? IDK how to make a post a sticky, though.
I'll also request access to edit in the Wiki pages...
