Hello I have already done a "french talk" post but I repost here to have more answer with English community: I try to make working Hyperion on my Fresh Openelec Install (6.0.3) on a Raspberry pi 2. to do so, I do the commands bellow: Code: mount -o remount,rw /flash cd /flash/overlays/ curl -L --output enable-spi-overlay.dtb --get https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3669512/temp/enable-spi-overlay.dtb nano /flash/config.txt to add at the end of the file Code: device_tree_overlay=overlays/enable-spi-overlay.dtb dtparam=spi=on Then Code: reboot curl -L --output install_hyperion.sh --get https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tvdzwan/hyperion/master/bin/install_hyperion.sh sh ./install_hyperion.sh At this step, I think Hyperion should work. I generate my conf file and uploaded it in /storage/hyperion/config After that I pluged my led (only DI & CI) to my RPI2 as in the picture below: My power supply is enoughly strong for my built ( 10A, 5V) So i try to make it works: Code: /storage/hyperion/bin/hyperiond.sh /storage/hyperion/config/hyperion.config.json the initial rainbow works but the troubles come after... I display a full red picture on my Kodi, to test the led. (to test the color order) But the led display all the color of the rainbow and white or light off, never stop changing of color, flashing /moving. They never stop on a single color. the result of the previous command is: Code: Hyperion Ambilight Deamon (1876) Version : V1.03.2 (brindosch-99d9396/d3713a8-1469452981 Build Time: Jul 25 2016 06:54:40 INFO: Selected configuration file: /storage/hyperion/config/hyperion.config.json HYPERION INFO: ColorTransform 'default' => [0; 97] HYPERION INFO: ColorCorrection 'default' => [0; 97] HYPERION INFO: ColorAdjustment 'default' => [0; 97] LEDDEVICE INFO: configuration: { "colorOrder" : "rgb", "name" : "MyHyperionConfig", "output" : "/dev/spidev0.0", "rate" : 1000000, "type" : "ws2801" } INFO: Creating linear smoothing HYPERION (CS) INFO: Created linear-smoothing(interval_ms=50;settlingTime_ms=200;updateDelay=0 EFFECTENGINE INFO: 27 effects loaded from directory /storage/hyperion/effects EFFECTENGINE INFO: Initializing Python interpreter INFO: Hyperion started and initialised INFO: Boot sequence 'Rainbow swirl' EFFECTENGINE INFO: run effect Rainbow swirl on channel 0 BLACKBORDER INFO: threshold set to 0 (0) BLACKBORDER INFO: mode:default started INFO: Kodi checker created and started INFO: Json server created and started on port 19444 INFO: Proto server created and started on port 19445 INFO: Boblight server created and started on port 19333 DISPMANXGRABBER INFO: Display opened with resolution: 1280x800 BLACKBORDER INFO: threshold set to 0 (0) BLACKBORDER INFO: mode:default INFO: Frame grabber created and started KODICHECK ERROR: Kodi Connection error (0) BORDER SWITCH REQUIRED!!

just comment out (or delete) this part: "framegrabber" : { "width" : 64, "height" : 64, "frequency_Hz" : 10.0, "priority" : 890 },
Yes: With the framegrabber comment no led light on with the framegrabber uncomment the led just gone crazy. I will make some others tests tonight (playing with the "boot effect" to set the correct RGB order)
So ... My evenings tests: I try to switch the "boot effect" to "Red mood blobs" or "Knight rider" without any effect. Led still flash something like a rainbow. I do a fresh install of OSMC on another card. Same result. I also notice that the first Led is still light on. even with the deamon stop or the service (osmc). I start to think that the problem is my raspberry pi 2 I will borrow another to a colleague next week I will update this threards
I just watch a Youtube video of the rainbow swirl,. and what my leds don't anything like that. I definitely think it's the raspberry.
Have you tried installing Hyperion using the built-in install/update function in the Hypercon Java application instead of doing it manually? Then you would at least rule out a typo/software glitch.
Hello all. I just finish a new test on a Raspberry PI 3 following the official Tutorial of Brindosch with the automatic install from the Hypercon application My Leds are still crazy. I run out of ideas maybe my chinese leds are just crap My leds began to be crazy before i solder them (the 160 leds stripes) So my soldering are dismissed
