RPi4 1GB + LibreElec 9.1.002 + Hyperion Lights = no lights

waschbaerbauch75 · August 29, 2019 at 4:17 PM

Hello,

i have a problem to get my hyperion lights up and running:

Hardware setup is:

RPi4 1GB - Armor case with 40x40x20 cooler

WS2812B (5V white PCB)

Power supply 5V 30A

I'm able to connect with the HyperCon configuration program:

Code

Is this problem LibreElec alpha related on RPi4 or is there a problem with the hyperion sources?

Thanks in advance for help

Mario

PS: Okay it seems this is a problem which is hyperion related.

Here you can find a binary which at least initializes

We got a couple of threads about Hyperion, use the search function. Read here for a RPi 3 success story.

**HiassofT** · August 30, 2019 at 9:41 AM

just install the Hyperion addon from the LibreELEC repository - no need to mess around with other hyperion binaries, they are usually built for Raspbian and known to cause issues.

Read more about Hyperion on LE in the wiki Hyperion [LibreELEC.wiki]

so long,

Hias

Thanks for the replies, but Da Flex that didn't work here with my RPi4, so i went the hyperion forum during my research with the binary which works like a charm.

HiassofT currently it's working perfectly, but thanks for the hint with the Hyperion addon from the LibreElec repository.

I'm very curious, so i will test your way too today

Thanks

Mario

PS: Ok i tried to figure it out here without success. I removed everything vom Hyperion (addon and Hyperion ssh install).

Installation from LibreElec repository was okay and i exchanged the configuration at the path:

Code

/storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/service.hyperion

with my configuration file 'hyperion.config.json'-

The result was/is: No function - no effect while startup - Hyperion remote on Android is unable to connect to the server. I think the service is not successfully started here. Maybe this is related to i'm using WS2812b (PWM at GPIO18 - Pin12) instead of WS2801.

What's the output if you do this from SSH?

Code

/storage/.kodi/addons/service.hyperion/bin/hyperiond.start

waschbaerbauch75 · November 28, 2019 at 2:12 PM

Da Flex sorry for the late reply, the solution is already in my first (edited) post. The binary hyperiond had to be replaced.

So your hyperion is working on your pi4?

Hi,

I have the same problem and I can't get The binary hyperiond as this page doesn't exist now. Can pls share the binary please. Thanks!
