The last Boblight Config Maker ...

TweakingAllPage 1 of 1&nbsp;&nbsp;12After many iterations of Boblight Config Maker, I’ve decided to finally release v2 … keep in mind that I have the feeling it’s not quite finished yet, so it’s released as a beta, by request of many v1 users.V2 has been rebuild complete from scratch, and&nbsp;(in my opinion) is&nbsp;not been quite perfect yet, but some will see benefit in this version as it adds a lot of new features.Since building and maintaining this application is simply taking way too much time, this will, unfortunately, most likely be the last version as well. As with many free or open source projects, this project is taking just too much time, and unfortunately, I do have to make a living as well.Note that for now the source will not be made public.UPDATE: For Windows and MacOS X I have fixed several bugs, a new version (beta 3) is available.Please consider disabling your ad blocker for our website.We rely on these ads to be able to run our website.You can of course support us in other ways (see Support Us).I have posted this release separate from the original article&nbsp;intentionally, as I do not expect to post updates or support for this version. It is a beta version, which I originally did not intend to release, but some helpful folks and v1 users asked me to release it anyway, as it could be useful to some, and it covers some additional features not found in v1.As mentioned before, this project has consumed way too much time, and unfortunately, this is not my daytime job. So for now this will be the last version, and bug fixes will most likely not be addressed. Feel free to post them though – others might benefit from it and if I find a great sponsor I might pick this project up again.Please consider disabling your ad blocker for our website.We rely on these ads to be able to run our website.You can of course support us in other ways (see Support Us).The start screen might look familiar, when comparing it to v1, but you’ll find some new features once you start working with it.BoblightConfigMaker v2 – Start ScreenThis version does come with a wizard which is intended to make your start easier.BoblightConfigMaker v2 – WizardThe configuration options have been extended – more devices are now supported and one can even create templates for a given configuration, which can be reused at a later time. The configuration can be limited to basic settings, but also set to show all options (check the “Preferences” tab for more details).BoblightConfigMaker v2 – Configuration ScreenNote that it’s not a bad idea to check out the “Information” tab, which tells more about you some of the basic steps.You can download v2 right here:Filename:&nbsp;Boblight-Config-Maker-v2beta4-Windows32bit.zipPlatform:&nbsp;Microsoft WindowsVersion:&nbsp;2.0File size:&nbsp;1.5 MBDate:&nbsp;2019-10-13&nbsp;Download Now&nbsp;Send me a cup of Coffee&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Filename:&nbsp;BoblightConfigMaker-v2.0.0-beta-macOS-64bit.dmgPlatform:&nbsp;UndefinedVersion:&nbsp;2.0.0File size:&nbsp;3.1 MBDate:&nbsp;2020-01-05&nbsp;Download Now&nbsp;Send me a cup of Coffee&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Filename:&nbsp;Boblight-Config-Maker-v2beta4-MacOSX.zipPlatform:&nbsp;Apple macOSVersion:&nbsp;2.0File size:&nbsp;1.9 MBDate:&nbsp;2019-10-13&nbsp;Download Now&nbsp;Send me a cup of Coffee&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Filename:&nbsp;Boblight-Config-Maker-v2beta-Linux32bit.zipPlatform:&nbsp;LinuxVersion:&nbsp;2.0File size:&nbsp;2 MBDate:&nbsp;2019-10-13&nbsp;Download Now&nbsp;Send me a cup of Coffee&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Filename:&nbsp;Boblight-Config-Maker-v2beta-Linux64bit.zipPlatform:&nbsp;LinuxVersion:&nbsp;2.0File size:&nbsp;2.2 MBDate:&nbsp;2019-10-13&nbsp;Download Now&nbsp;Send me a cup of Coffee&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;For more information I refer to the original Boblight Config Maker article.Don’t forget … There is an Info tab in the application which should get you started.Your support is very much appreciated, and can be as easy as sharing a link to my website with others, or on social media.Support can also be done by sponsoring me, and even that can be free (e.g. shop at Amazon).Any funds received from your support will be used for web-hosting expenses, project hardware and software, coffee, etc.Thank you very much for those that have shown support already!It's truly amazing to see that folks like my articles and small applications.Please note that clicking affiliate links, like the ones from Amazon, may result in a small commission for us - which we highly appreciate as well.Please consider disabling your ad blocker for our website.We rely on these ads to be able to run our website.You can of course support us in other ways (see Support Us).Please consider disabling your ad blocker for our website.We rely on these ads to be able to run our website.You can of course support us in other ways (see Support Us).There are 12 comments.

I don’t need it cause I’m using Hyperion).When you go to the Device Settings TAB and select the ALL dot it doesn’t show all text in the windows but cannot resize it or maximize it.As told before the PERIOD sign dot checked not working on Windows version.The rotation is inverted (Clockwise and Counter-Clockwise) – Tested on Windows and Linux version with T4A_AmbiLightTest.mp4On Linux version under the Device Settings TAB in Color Correction column the Treshold is by default 1 on all colors which turns off all LED (Red, Green, Blue) – took be about 1h to realize that :)As said in the config file there are a lot of error which make the config file unusable until fixed.The fixes I found working are:Remove the CURLY BRACKET before “color” :Remove the COMMA after the last LED INDEX CURLY BRACKETExample: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;{ {“index” : 184, 979 “index” : 184,”hscan” : { “minimum” : 0,4637, “maximum” : 0,4825 },&nbsp;}, &lt;—Remove the QUOTES signs on all PORT NUMBERSexample:“protoServer” : 1022 “protoServer” :{“port” : “19445” &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;—“port” : 19445},Insert a COMMA after the &nbsp;“grabMenu” : FalseI also changed all True and False statements to lowercase but not sure if that is vital.Hope helps someone to save a minute or two.And again thank you very much for this tool!!ReplyMar 13, 2016 - 5:20 PM - Author:Comment LinkThanks Marlu!I’ll take a look in the next few days, to see if there is a quick fix. It has a low priority at the moment (job hunting!), but I will most certainly see what I can do.Thanks for the very good info though.ReplyAug 7, 2016 - 7:42 AM - Author:Comment LinkUPDATE:For Windows and Mac OS X users, beta 3 is now available, addressing some of the very bad bugs …– The LEDs were rotating the wrong direction, actually mirroring what it should&nbsp;be, this should be fixed.– Hyperion: Remove the COMMA after the last LED– Fixed Comma vs Period – this now works as it should– Hyperion: Remove the curly bracket before “color”– Hyperion: Changed booleans to lower case (not sure if it would make a difference)– Hyperion: Remove the quotes signs on all port numbers– Hyperion: Insert a COMMA after the “grabMenu” : FalseReplyFeb 3, 2017 - 11:38 AMComment LinkHi, than kyou for your valuable tool :)In case you find time to fix things somewhen in future, I found a small bug with a huge impact on Beta 3, MacOS X with Boblight:When you invert the direction of the LED, all the values get swapped as well sohscan 87.5 93.8vscan 95 100becomeshscan 93.8 87.5 vscan 100 95However boblight does not accept “negative” fields and fails. Correcting all values manually produces a working config.ReplyFeb 3, 2017 - 12:55 PM - Author:Comment LinkThanks Jottt for pointing this out – with details how to fix it!I have “abandoned” the project a while ago, but maybe I’ll find some time in the next few weeks to see if I can fix this.&nbsp;ReplyFeb 3, 2017 - 1:14 PMComment LinkThanks :) Until then I use the “old”one ;)Reply©2000-2023 Hans Luijten - Tweaking4All.comContent may NOT be reproduced without explicit permission of the author(s).You can contact us through the "Contact Us" form.Linking to our page(s) however is very much appreciated.
