Now I’m trying to do it with OSMC and no usb grabber. Everything is installed on the pi correctly. I can run commands to hyperion with the android app and the CLI. I however don’t get any thing from the leds. No lights, no flickering. When I unplug the pins I sometimes get the first led to light up so I know I have power to the 2801 strip.
I read some where to add dtparam=spi=on to the boot and I did that but still no change. I have a DMM but I don’t know what to look for on the pins to see if they are working but I’m not getting anything so I know the GPIO is not working. I could take pictures of my setup if needed. I’m using a Pi model B.
