Final Edit: I am an idiot and didn’t realize an active movie has to be playing. Is there any way to make it so that the lights are displayed regardless if a movie/show is playing? I would like to have the lights on even if i am at the OSMC main screen
I just purchased an Ambiled and did all the setup according to this guide.
Here is the output of ls -l /dev/ttyAMA0
(which im assuming is my correct port):
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 204, 64 Jun 27 11:31 /dev/ttyAMA0
Here is a picture of my Hyperion setup (I changed whitelvl to be 0.5 for RGB and I changed Adalight to ambiled after I made the config).
When I tried to run sudo /sbin/initctl restart hyperion
, I got:
sudo: /sbin/initctl: command not found
To restart the service, I ran sudo service hyperion restart
and when i showed the status of hyperion it says it is currently active.
What could I be doing wrong?
Edit: Managed to make some progress. Turns out the Device output was actually /dev/ttyUSB0
. Now when I start up, i can see that hyperion is running but the lights do not turn on automatically. I am only able to have the lights turn on when I run hyperion-remote. How can I automatically have it turn into the color of the video that is on the screen?
