Hello again guys, I tried with higher values of thresold (20-30-40-50) and it isnt working. It shows better, but when the scene is black, it is showing like a "grey" light.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong.

I downloaded the boblight from google code. Compiled like first post says.

I'm launching boblightd -f (I'm in ubuntu server). Should I launch boblightd-x11 instead of boblightd?

About config files I have this for 50 leds connected to an arduino:

I'm not sure if I'm missing something

I had the same configuration in the raspberry pi, and the leds worked really great.

Any ideas?

Try these settings/conf
50 leds conf http://pastebin.com/i5AunzH4
script.xbmc.boblight settings http://pastebin.com/UxVRSd5R

I tried these settings, work much better than mine.
So my problem is in boblight.conf. I was reading both files and the only thing that changes is the setting of the 3 main colors:

Your config:

[color]
name red
rgb FF0000
gamma 2.1
adjust 0.8
blacklevel 0.0

[color]
name green
rgb 00FF00
gamma 2.0
adjust 1.0
blacklevel 0.0

[color]
name blue
rgb 0000FF
gamma 2.1
adjust 0.5
blacklevel 0.0

My config:

[color]
name red
rgb FF0000
gamma 1.0
adjust 1.0
blacklevel 0.0

[color]
name green
rgb 00FF00
gamma 1.0
adjust 1.0
blacklevel 0.0

[color]
name blue
rgb 0000FF
gamma 1.0
adjust 1.0
blacklevel 0.0



I guess I can copy the positoin of the leds from my config to your config.

Thank you very much for the help!

From what I understand, the gamma/adjust setting in the .conf file is to be able to set different setting for each color. The setting in the XBMC addon if for all colors at once.

Also, the gamma setting is how much "glow" the color has. The adjust is just a way to give a stronger or weaker light.

Please correct me if I got it all wrong. =)
