I've just finished my Windows10+Kodi+2xLightpacks+Boblight setup, thought I'd share some experience here, might help someone in the future.
Following Bossanova's guide, I've compiled new Boblight binary using x64 Cygwin and optimized source from Speedy1985.
- Optimized binary is about 10 times smaller than original.
- For speed optimization reasons all custom names in the config file should be 3 characters long (e.g. B01, R10, L20, etc).
- This binary creates proper log and also uses conf file in the same folder, no need to use -c option.
Binary and source code with those minor changes can be downloaded here.
I've tested this with two Lightpacks (config file included), but I guess it should also work with other devices supported by Boblight. Due to a weird bug Lightpack channels for the first 5 strips are all messed up (not in correct order), so I've tested and rearranged them correctly, too lazy to find the real reason in the code.
