den any word when the release to the new version?

[demmax2004]

Wait or use old firmware

[demmax2004]

The new version is not likely Lightpack, since the an infringement of copyrights.

Hello,

I've one question:
I recently downloaded AmbiBox 2.1.4. I want to use it with Lightpack, but I always have the problem that AMbiBox won't recognize my Lightpack, I always receive the message "Lightpack: not connected". this problem is only with AmbiBox, with Prismatik it works fine. I already tried to reisntall AmbiBox, but the issue persist.

Is there any way that I can use it?

[demmax2004]

Use old firmware

[Deidaratono]

which one for example?

[demmax2004]

Ask developers of Lightpack

Hi guys From France, I buy 2 paintpack 60 leds, and i want connect the both ton 1 single Pc and use the both in same time, like wrote on your website. Have you some tutorial to explain how its works, because i can't light the both at same time. Please why ?

[demmax2004]

what problems?

[purpleman]

Hi.

Does Ambibox currently support using more than one lightpack at the same time?
(I have 2 lightpacks and I want to use 20 color zones)

Thank you.

[demmax2004]

No

Ey there, i have a problem with Ambibox.

I launch the strandtest and works perfect, then i launch the ledstream lib and open ambi, so then i put a static background color (green) and it works for about 1-2 sec and then the color changes to red, then green, then red, then green..

And i capture the screen, the leds goes crazy aswell.

And as i said, strandtest works, so Ambi too (since its connected and 'works', badly but works).

Do u know what can happen and how can i fix it?

Thanks and sry for my poorly English since im not native speaker!


edit: Tried in my laptop, and it happens the same. I'm start to thinking that can be a bad Arduino Mega or something like that.

Hey there, i am using AtmoWin since a couple of years with MediaPortal.
Now i am switching to XBMC/Kodi and with AtmoWin i have stuttering Live TV.

So i would like to use AmbiBox. Till now without success.
Device is connected but the lights are still off.
My system: Win7 64, SEDU V2 with 68 LEDs.

Currently with AtmoWin everything is working.
SEDU is on COM3 and the box is set to 250000 Baud.
I attach my logs and a screen with my settings.

Any hints?

[demmax2004]

Device is connected but the lights are still off.

All modes ?

[HansDampf]

Yes, in all modes. I switched a couple of times between the different modes.
Also when i try it with XBMC Plugin.
I  also tried different FTDI Drivers. Everytime AtmoWin worked, but not AmbiBox :-(

You know what happened in the logfile?

[demmax2004]

Does not match the baud rate
