I am running 50 LEDs. They are the 6803 type so I had to use a ledstream mad for 6803 LEDs. running this on a arduino uno rev 3 (knockoff from dx.com)
so far it works very nice. I did tweak the settings in xbmc addon boblight for movies. turned up the threshold so the LEDs go dark when the screen is dark.
I also changed these in the boblight.conf file:
[color]
name blue
rgb 0000FF
adjust 0.4
[color]
name green
rgb 00FF00
adjust 0.7
I had too much green and way too much blue. My white color looked blue. so I turned blue to 0 and it looked green... so I tweaked until I got a nice white color. looks great now.
also in xbmc boblight settings:
preset: CUSTOM
Speed: 50
Autospeed: 0
Interpolation: off
saturation: 3.00 the higher the more colorful (not brightness but how deep the color is)
value: 1.50 brightness
threshold: 40 the higher it is the sooner it will turn dark.... at 0 it will never go dim.
Which version of boblightd for windows are you running? The 1.3 beta 1?
