penfold42 a960894d14 Another option for Ws2812 - direct spi from the pi with 1 wire (#631)
* Removed -HUP so the default -TERM signal is sent instead.
- hyperiond only listens for TERM and INT. HUP is often used to get an exe to reread its config

Changed pgrep to add '-x' so it wont partial match on the exe name.
- I have multiple instances with multiple hyperiond-instance1 names
- this ensures the service script only kills the right process

* reversing errant change to hyperion.systemd.sh

* This add a new device type - ws2812spi.

I've (ab)used the SPI interface to send the correct timing pulses to keep the ws2812 happy.
THE RATE IS IMPORTANT!
A FIXED CORE_CLK IS IMPORTANT!

Attach the SPI MOSI pin on the Pi to the DIN pin on your ws2812

        "device" :
        {
                "name"       : "MyPi",
                "type"       : "ws2812spi",
                "colorOrder" : "grb",
                "output"     : "/dev/spidev0.0",
                "rate"       : 3800000
        },

* updated hyperiond.test-binary

* Updated default SPI speed to the "correct" value.
My Pi was undervolted so was dropping the core clock confusing everything

* Code cleanups
explicitly set the final 3 bytes to 0

* Removed latchtime option - not applicable

* updated test binary

HYPERION

Hyperion is an opensource 'AmbiLight' implementation supported by many devices. The main features of Hyperion are:

  • Low CPU load. For a led string of 50 leds the CPU usage will typically be below 1.5% on a non-overclocked Pi.
  • Json interface which allows easy integration into scripts.
  • A command line utility allows easy testing and configuration of the color transforms (Transformation settings are not preserved over a restart at the moment...).
  • Priority channels are not coupled to a specific led data provider which means that a provider can post led data and leave without the need to maintain a connection to Hyperion. This is ideal for a remote application (like our Android app).
  • HyperCon. A tool which helps generate a Hyperion configuration file.
  • Kodi-checker which checks the playing status of Kodi and decides whether or not to capture the screen.
  • Black border detector.
  • A scriptable effect engine.
  • Generic software architecture to support new devices and new algorithms easily.
