nahh - as long as the black bars are not encoded within the video itself - boblight just won't see the blackbars and so will run on the real videodata only...

This takes far less cpu than X11boblight, awesome works bob.
Some few selfish suggestions:
- I've found it hard to calibrate colors blindly. It would be great to have a calibration page in the plugin settings.
Something in 3 steps: Shows a green on screen, with some cursors to move to match this color on the led., then do the same with red and blue.
- For the fixed color stuff, is it possible to have it reacting in real time while moving the cursors ? (a color wheel like philips lamp for this would be well suited too )
- I'd love to have it reacting to music tempo creating some animation patterns with the led, not depending on visuals like I did before with x11vnc, because I hate those hypnotic animation on screen ^^.

I only got some minor issue. In the plugin i can select Slow and Fast mode but also Custom and that is were it fails.
When i select Custom it only works for a second or 2 and then it stops. Haven't found a similar issue in this thread yet.
I'm running it on OpenELEC pre-eden beta 3 (deamon and plugin installed) connected to a Arduino Uno R3.

For the moment, I'm actually trying to develop an iphone webapp for boblight, to manage fixed colors from my idevice.
And I've fixed your credit on my previous comment. Thought it was bob who made the addon. My mistake
