not that i know off ... the windows version you found is an old and incompatible version. You have to wait until one dev ports the current version over to windows. Thats not me atm...

I compiled current SVN source with cygwin. As I said, I tested with your recent plugin and eden-beta.

I don't provide any binaries for windows, but you can get a boblightd compiled on cygwin here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=986...stcount=99

regnets Wrote:Hi,
i am using boblight for about a week, it is really great!
I just discovered that dark scenes in movies are not dark enough . As example: If i see a really dark scene my led are still lighting a bit up. I tried to change the settings in the boblight addon. So far every change seems to make the light brighter as the default settings. Am i doing anything wrong? Did i misinterpret the settings?
Thank you!

DarioS Wrote:Just got my CrystalBuntu / boblight / adalight system pulled together. I've found that I really like having the threshold set high so the lights only fire when there are bright spots around the edges.
Unfortunately, sometimes the scenes will be just bright overall, and the effect is not quite so spectacular when action hits the edges of the screen.
To emphasize explosions and whatnot, would it be possible to modify the plugin to amplify the output values, or drop the threshold, depending on audio output level?
I'd pull the code and try poking at it, but my programming experience is pretty minimal. I'm happy to test though.
MrHenky Wrote:Hello there,
I got only one question. How do I compile the boblight source in a Windows environment?
If the answer is just cygwin, I'll change the question to "How do I compile and use the boblight in a Windows environment with cygwin?"
I really wanna use boblight on windows and if everything works out fine, I'll definately make a noob friendly manual on using Adalight with boblight.
But I'm stuck a little and I'll always see only XBMC user with boblight running on Linux but that is not an option, since the computer got other duties.

I tested with Eden beta, boblight addon, and arduino PWM sketch.

PolliSoft Wrote:Hi,
thanks for these. I'm currently building a setup like the one seen on http://livelightproject.com. To get your binary to work, do I need to have CygWin installed, or is that taken care of by the cygwin dll files? Right now, when I run
nothing at all happens. Do I need to add the dll files as parameters somehow? How can I see if the daemon is running properly?Code:boblightd.exe -c .\boblight.conf
