Hi,

I have a SmartXX LT OPX and soldered some leds on it.

Now the problem I'm having, is that I can only control the Red channel with the LCD backlight value, and the Green and Blue channels with the pwmcontrol (via python)

Sidenote: A solution I wouldn't mind to use is something like "lcd.backlight" in the built-in commands, except that it isn't implemented.

So I looked into the code and saw

Code:

// utils\LED.h
#define SMARTXX_PWD_RED    0xf70c   //PWM1: SmartXX V3 port for RGB red output
#define SMARTXX_PWD_GREEN  0xf70d   //PWM2: SmartXX V3 port for RGB green output
#define SMARTXX_PWD_BLUE   0xf70e   //PWM3: SmartXX V3 port for RGB blue output

and furthermore:

Code:

// lib\smartXX\smartxxlcd.cpp
#define DISP_O_LIGHT              0xF701        // Display Port brightness control

And when I check this with the SmartXX LT OPX 'datasheet', it shows me:

Code:

F701h (write) PWM1 out (brightness control)
..
F70Ch (write) PWM2 out (brightness control)
F70Dh (write) PWM2 out (brightness control)
(..end of table)

0xf70e doesn't exist!
Also SMARTXX_PWD_RED actually is Green on the pinout.
and likewise for SMARTXX_PWD_GREEN which is my 'blue'


So is this a bug / incompatibility?
I think there should be a check for the SmartXX version or something inside the LED.cpp or via a smartXXled.cpp subclass.

Would be nice to see this working correctly, but unfortunately, I do not have the right equipment/knowledge to compile XBMC myself atm.

cheers,
