we have the boblight binary addon for ages at LE - this should work

but tbh better use hyperion Hyperion [LibreELEC.wiki]

Hello CvH,

Sorry but my ambilight hardware is not compatible with Hyperion. I use Livelight interface.

I know bobligth add-on is available in librelec, but I'm not talking about the add-on, I'm talking about the dependences it needs to work correctly (paste from bobligth GitHub):

Dependencies

First of all the following clarification: This addon only provides the client. You still need to run the boblightd - daemon somewhere in your network (either on the same mashine as XBMC or on any other mashine in your network, where your boblight hardware is connected to).

For this addon to be working you need a library for communicating with the boblightd - daemon. It should get automagically downloaded for you on the first run of the addon for Windows and OSX. If it doesn't ask you for the automatic download - disable and reenable the addon - this should get you going. Linux users should have installed the library libboblight.so.

Linux:
goto the projects site Google Code Archive - Long-term storage for Google Code Project Hosting. and download the source code. Then compile and install the library by issueing the following commands (without the $'s):

$ cd <source of boblight><br><br>$ ./configure --without-portaudio --without-opengl --without-x11 --prefix=/usr<br><br>$ make && sudo make install

This will install the libboblight.so library into /usr/lib - where the boblight addon will find it.

If is possible to include the library libboblight.so in future releases will be helpful for people we have an ambilight.

Thanks

Dear developers of Libreelec,

Please, for the final version of Kodi Leia, could you include the binary library to work addon Boblight?

Since Kodi Isengard, this addon stopped working and now require a binary library, but for install it there are no privileges (is necessary to copy a file into usr folder, and it's locked).

[RELEASE] Official XBMC boblight Addon

Please, consider include the binary file in future builds.

Thanks

Kind regards,

Javier

Dear Escalade,

I've tested your compilation and it's the best I tried since I started with Openelec.

In my HTPC I have an ambilight connected and with last version of Libreelec/Openelec and boblight addon doesn't work.

They require install a binaries in order to work, but is not possible to install.

If you could add this binaries to your compilation, will be perfect.

I'm not sure if other ambilight users had the same problem, but I think this binaries will not be a difficult task for you

Please, consider this for your next release.

Thanks

Kind regards,

Javier

Dear Escalade,

For your next build, please, could you include "libboblight.so" file to /usr/lib of your compilation?

libboblight.zip

Acording with the README of boblight script, doing this the boblight script can work correctly.

I'll be waiting for your notices.

Thanks.

Kind regards,

Javier
