Ambilight Home Step 6 (Final Issues and Adjustments)

Below we will see some doubts and problems that may arise while you are assembling your homemade ambilight following this tutorial or a similar one and we will see some possible causes and solutions… In addition, a little further down I leave you two videos so that you can check that everything is OK in your Ambilight.

Common problems with your home Ambilight

#

• If it seems that everything works OK but the LEDs do not respond
  • Check, test, change and look for the necessary values in your /etc/boblight.conf
  • If the console doesn’t give you any errors, you should check the settings
    • delayafteropen (varies according to type of LEDS)
    • interval (varies by LEDS)
    • Prefix (varies depending on the number of LEDs)
• Check that you have chosen the correct port in the arduino ide and in the /etc/bobliht.conf file
• Check that you have made the connections correctly and remember
  • The data goes where the female connector initially comes from and the current where the male connector comes from
