Hyperion not Working - How to Debug?

  • Hyperion is not working for me on my LibreELEC v7.0.0 RaspberryPI 3:

    • I installed the Hyperion Addon via the LibreELEC Repo
    • Copied my hyperion.config.json into Userdata\addon_data\script.hyperion
    • This is my Settings.xml:

    But nothing happen...no start effect, nothing.

    The LEDs are Working because i used with OpenELEC before.

    How can i check (maybe via SSH) if Hyperion and the Addon are working correct


    When i use:

    Code
    /storage/.kodi/addons/service.hyperion/bin/hyperion-remote --effect "Rainbow swirl fast" --duration 3000


    via Putty, it returns:

    Code
    hyperion-remote:
            version   : f64b6eb
            build time: Apr 12 2016 03:24:59
    Unable to connect to host


    Code
    service hyperiond status


    returns:

    Code
    -sh: service: not found

    • Official Post

    it should be Userdata\addon_data\service.hyperion

    or the full path

    Code
    /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/service.hyperion/hyperion.config.json

    Then just restart the device or restart hyperiond

    Code
    systemctl restart service.hyperion.service
  • Ok changed it now into service.hyperion.

    When i use

    Code
    systemctl restart service.hyperion.service


    hyperion gets started and all is working fine and when i shutdown or restart, LEDs get Black.

    BUT when i start the PI, it seems Hyperion gets not started.
    No StartUp Effect and not working when view Videos or anything else.

    When i use

    Code
    systemctl restart service.hyperion.service

    its start working until next (re)boot.

    And what is the best solution to switch between 2 config files (one for Kodi, one for HDMI)?


    Nvm got it now to work ;)

  • I've got very similiar problem. I'm running LE 8 (escalade build thread-302.htm for RPi3). LEDs has worked with OE 8 very well.

    In log:

    Code
    Jul 03 18:54:37 sewo-htpc sh[780]: INFO: Selected configuration file: /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/service.hyperion/hyperion.config.json


    But nothing happens. :(

    Will you help me?
