I am relatively new to ambilight. i got my ambilight setup working last night running on Macmini OSX with arduino uno and 150 Leds. I am wanting to try other control options and downloaded Prismatic last night. But when i open the app after install all i get is the file bar at the top no new windows open up. is there a step im missing to install prismatik into my system.
on another note with Processing2 when the preview window opens i cannot seem to get the rgb and framerate info to show up. I have a feeling my framerate is running very slow. My XBMC is very slow when running adalight in the backround Im running Frodo with aeon MQ4 skin.
Lastly i noticed my color intensity / brightness is nowhere near the red green blue test at the beginning of starting output. is there a way to increase brightness intensity in the processing script. i have adjusted min brightness but it seams raising that value seams to make the leds more white having less color transition.

Re: Adalight with Prismatik (formerly Lightpack)
Anyone have issues where the lights just shut off after working for awhile and Prismatik says error with connection device?
REbooting solves the issue...I know it's the software because I can open Processing and it still works after the lights have stopped.

Ahh I take that back Processing won't work either..throws an array error on the com port line..so its like my com port is stopping or losing connection to the ardunino?

Re: Adalight with Prismatik (formerly Lightpack)
Is the color correction still working in the newer versions?
It seems off a bit.
My profile settings look like this, is this right:
[LED_38]
IsEnabled=true
Position=@Point(2362 301)
Size=@Size(202 125)
CoefRed=1
CoefGreen=0.800000011920929
CoefBlue=0.56000002384182

Re: Adalight with Prismatik (formerly Lightpack)
I installed Prismatik version 5.9.6 on Windows 7 32 Bits to work with Adalight in Arduino Uno connected to 50 LEDs.
In my case, after I configured it, when I open the program the led string blinks (arduino test pattern) and then goes off and nothing else happens, the led string just stay off and simply don't react, no matter what I do in both modes (Capture and Mood Light).
I know my installation is ok because when I use XBMC with boblight compiled for windows everything works perfectly.
I'm not sure what is happening and how I can debug it...
Any help???

Re: Adalight with Prismatik (formerly Lightpack)
Is there any way to smooth the light with the adalight lightpack? I am asking because I saw it's possible if you choose the device "lightpack"

hi
whilst playing games like battlefield 3 the lights turn off after a couple of seconds and I find that they don't change to the environment colour. Is there a way to prevent this from happening please?

Re: Adalight with Prismatik (formerly Lightpack)
I'm not sure but I think Prismatik doesn't support dx 11.
I think we have to wait a bit. They are currently very buisy because they are inwenting some hardware

Hi all
http://sanya.tarhelyszolgaltato.eu/ is no longer working. Is there an alternative to help me create a 100 LED profile on osx?
