2.0.0-alpha.10

The focus of this release is on user experience.
We tried as much as possible supporting you in getting valid setup done, as well as providing enough room for expert users to tweak configurations here and there.
The reworked dashboard provides you now with the ability to control individual components, jump to key configuration items, as well as to switch between LED instances easily.
The refined color coding in the user-interfaces, helps you to quickly identify instance specific and global configuration items.

Of course, the release brings new features (e.g. USB Capture on Windows), as well as minor enhancements and a good number of fixes.

Note:

  • IMPORTANT: Due to the rework of the grabbers, both screen- and video grabbers are disabled after the upgrade to the new version.
    Please, re-enable the grabber of choice via the UI, validate the configuration and save the setup. The grabber should then restart.

  • Hyperion packages can now be installed under Ubuntu (x64) and Debian (amd64/armhf) (incl. Raspberry Pi OS) via our own APT server.
    Details about the installation can be found in the installation.md and at apt.hyperion-project.org.

  • Find here more details on supported platforms and configuration sets

Added

  • The Dashboard is now a one-stop control element to control instances and link into configuration areas
  • LED Instance independent configuration objects (e.g. capturing hardware) are now separated out in the menu
  • New menu item "Sources" per LED instances configuration to enable/disable screen or usb grabber per instance

Grabbers

  • Windows Media Foundation USB grabber (incl. Media Foundation transform/Turbo-JPEG scaling)
  • Linux V4L2 Grabber now supports the following formats: NV12, YUV420
  • Image flipping ability in ImageResampler/Turbo-JPEG
  • UI: Simplified screens for non-expert usage, do only show elements relevant
  • Discover available Grabbers (incl. their capabilities for selection), not supported grabbers are not presented. Note: Screen capturing on Wayland is not supported (given the Wayland security architecture)
  • USB Grabber: New ability to configure hardware controls (brightness, contrast, saturation, hue), as well as populating defaults
  • Configuration item ranges are automatically adopted based on grabber capabilities,
  • Grabbers can only be saved with a valid configuration
  • Standalone grabbers: Added consistent options/capabilities for standalone grabbers, debug logging support
  • Screen grabbers: Allow to set capture frequency, size decimation and cropping across all grabber types
  • Screen grabber: QT-Grabber allows to capture individual displays or all displays in a multi-display setup
  • Display Signal Detection area in preview (expert users)
  • UI: Only show CEC detection, if supported by platform

LED-Devices

  • Select device from list of available devices (UI Optimization - Select device from list of available devices #1053) - Cololight, Nanoleaf, Serial Devices (e.g. Adalight), SPI-Device, Pi-Blaster

  • Get device properties for automatic configuration of number of LEDs and initial layout (WLED, Cololight, Nanoleaf)

  • Identify/Test device (WLED, Cololight, Nanoleaf, Adalight)

  • For selected devices a default layout configuration is created, if the user chooses "Overwrite" (WLED, Cololight, Nanoleaf, all serial devices, all spi device, pi-blaster)

  • Ensure Hardware LED count matches number of lights (Philips Hue, Yeelight, Atmo Orb)

  • User is presented a warning/error, if there is a mismatch between configured LED number and available hardware LEDs

  • Add udev support for Serial-Devices

  • Allow to get properties for Atmo and Karatedevices to limit LED numbers configurable

  • Philips Hue: Add basic support for the Play Gradient Lightstrip

  • WLED: Support of ["live" property] (Aircoookie/WLED#1308) (#1095)

  • WLED: Brightness overwrite control by configuration

  • WLED: Allow to disable WLED synchronization when streaming via hyperion

  • WLED: Support storing/restoring state (#1101)

  • Adalight: Fix LED Num for non analogue output in arduino firmware

  • Allow to blacklist LEDs in layout via UI

  • Live Video image to LedLayout preview (#1136)

Other

  • Effects: Support Custom Effect Templates in UI for custom effect creation and configuration

  • Effects: Custom effect separation in the systray menu

  • New languages - Portuguese (Std/Brazil) & Norwegian (Bokmål)

  • New Flags: Russia, Cameroon, Great Britain, England, Scotland

  • Provide cross compilation on x86_64 for developers using docker. This includes the ability to use local code, as well as build incrementally

Changed

  • Grabbers use now precise timings for better timing accuracy

  • Nanoleaf: Consider Nanoleaf-Shape Controllers

  • LED-Devices: Show HW-Ledcount in all setting levels

  • System Log Screen: Support to copy loglines, system info and status of the current instance to the clipboard (to share it for investigation)

  • Updated dependency rpi_ws281x to latest upstream

  • Fix High CPU load (RPI3B+) (#1013)

Fixed

  • Active grabbers are displayed correctly after updating the WebUI

  • Issue Crop values are checked against decimated resolution (#1160)

  • Framebuffer grabber is deactivated in case of error

  • Fix/no signal detection (#1087)

  • Fix that global settings were not correctly reflected across instances after updates in other non default instance (#1131,#1186,#1188)

  • Fix UI: Handle error scenario properly, when last instance number used does not exist any longer.

  • UI Allow to have password handled by Password-Manager (#1263)

  • Fixed effect freezing during startup

  • Effects were not started from tray (#1199)

  • Interrupt effect on timeout (#1013)

  • Fixed color and effect handling and duplicate priorities (#993,#1113,#1216)
