Grabber refactoring overview as notice

• Sync feature level of all grabbers
• Add a monitor selection mode (at .json) (x11) on multi monitor setups to start the grabber always from another source, fallback to monitor 0 if the requested monitor not found
• connect to kodi check via proto for all grabbers (follow hyperion x11)
• Add to hyperiond a grabber starter which selects automatically the platform depending grabber
• Add enable option to all grabbers - in case of false don´t start the grabber
• PixelFormat option is available just for v4l2, x11 and framebuffer - sync it.
• v4l2 is a half exception here, cause it is often used at the same .json. But could also be externalized with a opt-in option for kodi check, if people use kodi just via v4l2.

@Paulchen-Panther @redPanther @penfold42

new pattern example - feel free to add more

    "framegrabber" : 
    {
        "enable" : true,        
        "width" : 64,
        "height" : 64,
        "frequency_Hz" : 10.0,
        "priority" : 890,
        "display" : 0,
        "cropleft" : 0,
        "cropright" : 0,
        "croptop" : 0,
        "cropbottom" : 0
    },

If 10 LEDs are configured and we get a packet with only 3 LEDs of data should we set the other 7 to black ?

Right now, it uses whatever was in the buffer from the last packet with black the default at startup.

Choices:
Leave it as it is
Set the remainder to black
Ignore the packet
Ignore and send an error packet back to the client

Related to #626.

As requested, opening an issue here...

"leds" parameter in device section works only for apa102 leds. Ideally, it should work for any device type

We should replace our 3th party serial port library with serial port implemention from qt.
This shouldn't be hard, because serial port is used only in leddevices and they have a parent class with serial stuff.

Why?

• delete code in hyperion, deleted code is good code :-)
• better platform independent
• qt serialport is better tested
• we can use signal/slot from qt to be more event driven

Need to look into how to explicitly advertise an ip address

Hi,

I've been trying to compile hyperion-ng for RPi on my laptop (ubuntu 14.04). Unfortunately I got stuck at running create_all_releases.sh . I am getting the following error:

CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
BCM_INCLUDE_DIR
   used as include directory in directory /home/jacwk/hyperion1/libsrc/grabber/dispmanx
   used as include directory in directory /home/jacwk/hyperion1/src/hyperion-dispmanx
BCM_LIBRARIES
    linked by target "dispmanx-grabber" in directory /home/jacwk/hyperion1/libsrc/grabber/dispmanx

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I do believe I followed all steps properly including qt5 installation.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Can we get travis to build with SPI ?

I just tested both ubuntu and centos x86 systems with:
cmake -DPLATFORM=x86 -DENABLE_SPIDEV=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

and they build fine

I'm half way they doing it but would love someone to test when done

Bind (dlopen) against bcm and x11 libs only when dispmanx/x11 is used.

This enables us to e.g. to launch raspi build on other arm linux, where bcm libs not available.
Or compile with x11, but hyperion is runable on system without x11 ..

Then we don't have to remove integrated grabbers and use only proto grabbers.

The service is not a script. You should rather name it hyperiond.service. Or use if this gives problem with the init scripts use hyperiond.systemd.service.

In the install script I also suggest to name the service hyperiond and not just hyperion. This is a common practise and also the binary itself is also called hyperiond.

SPI device needs an option to invert the data and clock pins to support inverting level shifters

Option: Set the min luminance just during grabbers are active, so it will be diabled if you use a "idle effect/color" or just black with disabled grabbers.
For this you may "move" this to another(new?) component which could be also called (started and stopped) during runtime.

Fix: my ambient light get strange colors at black areas. Looks weird. Another solution is appreciated.
Hint: The old deprecated value "blacklvl" works like a charm, but might be more a hack. As long it works?

Nothing should need it ?

It's big and it forces othe install dependencies with break OSMC without fixing it's library path

I've started trying to do it without knowing what I really doing

Lots to be done here - if someone new to hyperion wants to contribute, this is a tedious but worthy task!

There are 178 std::cout calls in the code as show here:
/hyperion.ng# find src libsrc -type f -exec grep -n std::cout /dev/null {} ; | wc -l
178

I try to get the AUR package ready for hyperion 2.x now.
I tried compiling the source but cmake does not throw an error for some missing deps. Those should be included to the cmake.

A pacman dep list would also be nice, I will work on that. If someone already develops on arch and has the deps ready, please let me know.

I checked but the package avahi is installed. I am wondering what is missing.

[arch@arch hyperionpkg]$ find / -name avahi-client 2>/dev/null
/usr/include/avahi-client

if we work anyway on everything ...

zeroconf
{
enable : true,
~~mDNSDescr : "aname",~~
~~mDNSService : "aServiceName"~~
},

I have a general question regarding zeroconf, if people configure another mDNSService (name?) an App could no longer identifiy it as Hyperion port?

Your example lead to this if i am right?
root@Penfold42MediaPlayer:~# avahi-browse -r _hyperiond_json._tcp

This identifier should be hardcoded - always the same.
And i am not sure if we should keep the option mDNDsecr, if we provide this optional in general i need to add it to the JSON checker, @Paulchen-Panther finished the json write to write a config. but it is based at the information of the json checker.
So the problem - the value will be the same on all platforms as long the user don´t change it (or we code a detection to input this) (which will be usually 99%)

I would prefer to stick always with the hostname of the current device.

The doxygen doc generate lots of (approx.800) warnings. This should be fixed in the long run.

you can generate the doc with:
make doc
and you will find the doc in build/doc/html.

• refactor UDP as seperate listener and remove it from the bootsequence and effect list

UDP should be a listener (clean) implemented like boblight

    "udpServer" : 
    {
        "enable" : false,       
        "port" : XXXXX,
        "priority" : 900
    },

Hyperion

• smoothing (activate bypass as it is already used if enable false?)
• blackborder
• kodicheck
• forwarder
• udplistener
• boblight server
• grabbers (this should be handled though a platform depedent selection. To keep the command easy/platform independent)

JSON RPC

• smoothing
• blackborder
• kodicheck
• forwarder
• udplistener
• boblight server
• grabbers

I compiled hyperion for my raspberry 3 in arch and sometimes get a segmentation fault.

I only changed the number of leds to 25 and the adalight device:

    "device" :

        "name"       : "MyHyperionConfig",
        "type"       : "adalight",

        "rate"       : 115200,
        "colorOrder" : "rgb"
    },

SPI is not enabled, nor used. It is not even compiled in this binary I use.

Move all default priorities to a single default-priorities.h

Enhance Json priority list with the name of which components have set that priority

Log a warning of priorities collide so it's more obvious why it's flickering as they fight to the death

We need to update json schema file. This will be important for travis check and automatic building of web config ui.

If we talk anyway about logging, we need a setting to enable easy different loglevels.

    "loglevel" : 
    {
        "level" : "INFO"
    },

• UDP (led) device
• serial
• JSON (in progress)
• Command Line Parser

If there is more, just write it down

Smoothing should be a own component like blackborder, kodicheck, ...
This is more a small todo note in general :)

@redPanther
If you may have some time later, there is a small issue now. If you use the backlight option it is much more noticebale.
The smoothing should stop the output not immediately after "no change" -> stop output trigger.
It would be better to keep the output flow -until- the configured smoothing time is reached.

If you have a fast color change: the leds "hang" in a smoothed state between for example blue and black. (If you go from a blue to a black picture)

Thank you

Hyperion calculates average color of rectangular screen area to a led. Every led has his area.
Currently calculating average color of whole screen and set this single color to to all leds is not possible. (ok there is a trick, but this waste to much cpu time)
This is one thing ... the other is, not everybody likes average color. There are other algorithms like weighted average, mean vaule, dominant color

Hyperion needs some transform mechanisms for image to led mapping. We already have "color transform", but this make the transformation after the image processing.

Hyperion needs more intelligence if we want to automate the grabber selection.

If found this, but the interesting part ist just available with Qt5.4 and hostname with QT5.6
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsysinfo.html

So wie end up with hacking?
/cpu/procinfo (for Pi BCM version), lsb_release and uname?

OS=$(lsb_release -si)
ARCH=$(uname -m | sed 's/x86_//;s/i[3-6]86/32/')
VER=$(lsb_release -sr)
HOST=$(uname --nodename)

This information could be also pushed to the webinterface and a minified version for statistic purposes.

https://hyperion-project.org/threads/v4l2-add-shutdown-detection.146/

It runs as root

No authentication on its network services

No source IP restrictions on its network services

When we support reconfiguration via a browser you could overwrite any file on the OS

All components should be able to be enabled/disabled with a option, to keep the .json clean (no comment out or removal of options to disable it)

• Smoothing
• All Grabbers
• V4L2 (v4l2 could be used at the same time with the other grabbers - so this section will be there anyway)
• blackborder
• kodicheck
• boblight
• proto json forward
• UDP listener (server)

as we are moved to qt5 there are new capabilities we can use from qt5.
Currently we use a 3th party lib called getoptplusplus to parse command line options.

Now we can use qt commandline parser and delete getoptplusplus from our code.

doc: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qcommandlineparser.html

The forwarder is one of the greatest extensions of Hyperion. So maybe @redPanther wants to push the usage "comfort in general to come faster in touch and to keep the documentation and "how to setting it up" lines low.
My ideas are the following.

The main instance of Hyperion starts more instances if you set it at a .json file here:

    "forwarder" : 
    {
        "json" : ["127.0.0.1:19446"],
        "proto" : ["127.0.0.1:19447"],
                "instance" : SecondConfig.json,ThirdConfig.json
    },

On top of this, a auto assignment of ports might be useful too. Why mess around yourself with ports if Hyperion just need to count +2 to the current base value?

A issue might be that we still have the JSON and PROTO port cat at the .json
A option could be to remove the option to configure it (bad, but count the people who change their ports)
or all following hyperion instances need to ignore the setting for JSON and PROTO port at the .json.

/discuss
This post is not to hurry up things, just to keep track of what could be done :)

QtHttpServer error : "The bound address is already in use"

For more comfort, i would prefer port 80, in case port 80 is already in use by another application, could we use 8099 as fallback before we quit the server?

Why? Why not :)
People use Hyperion primarily on a Pi with a mediacenter distribution. So port 80 might be applicable for 99% of users

We currently output the full version/id string via JSON, but this is not really a version check, cause an app don´t need a github commit number and you need to sort this out during processing. Also this string just reflects the branch name, which lead to issues.

So we should provide a "hardcoded" version string which just outputs a app friendly formatted value to detect the real feature level of Hyperion. We should give the developers the possibility to react with another ui for example or just to show this easier.

I am not sure if this is a bug or an issue/feature of the cmake system in general. If you run make install It does not simply abort (if it was compiled before), it tries to compile again. Its super fast, but still not correct. This is minor though, but maybe the fix is triviial.

Pi1 with framegrabber and v4lgrabber enabled
No grabbing hardware, no /dev/video
Start hyperiond

An error is logged, but the dispmanx grabber never gets initialized

I'll look into it later if no one beats me to it

More a question:
Can't we drop the protobuf submodule and use a packaged protobuf?

https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=protobuf
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/protobuf/

At least for arch, would this package work, or is it too old/wrong? Because then I could at least manually remove the protobuf submodule and use the internal library to save some space.

You can disable some part of the config without commenting now which is great.

    "webConfig" :
    {
        "enable" : true,
        "document_root" : "/usr/share/hyperion/webconfig",
        "port" : 8099
    },

However not all settings can be disabled and I want to disable more of them. Since commenting now should not be used anymore, I am not sure if simply adding "enable" would work. But even if so, the default config should has this setting, possibly set to true or false.

sample output:
[HYPERIOND MAIN] Hyperion started and initialised
INFO: Boot sequence 'Rainbow swirl fast' EFFECTENGINE INFO: run effect Rainbow swirl fast on channel 0
BLACKBORDER INFO: threshold set to 0.1 (26)
BLACKBORDER INFO: mode:default
started
[HYPERIOND MAIN] Kodi checker created and started

Suggest just removing the cout statements around src/hyperiond/hyperiond.cpp:143:

I searched the reason why the enable option for v4l2 won't work, and now i found this
https://github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/blob/master/libsrc/blackborder/BlackBorderProcessor.cpp

should be moved to

https://github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/blob/master/src/hyperiond/hyperiond.cpp

Is there any way to get this to work?

If not should we write an error and then stop re-trying?

This provides an mpeg4 stream from /dev/video0 so is different from the standard grabbers.

On my ubuntu x86 box:
QtHttpServer started on port 46 "Qt Static HTTP File Server"

on my osmc pi3:
QtHttpServer started on port 25449 "Qt Static HTTP File Server"

If I configure the port in the config file its fine and does as its told

Needs to be refactored, @Paulchen-Panther pointed me to this, maybe he is interested to refactor this.

I need hyperiond to let me specify an effect or colour to set the strip to on exit rather than simply "lights off"

Now we use qt5. Qt5 brings native support for json parsing - use this instead of our external lib jsoncpp

http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/json.html
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15893040/how-to-create-read-write-json-files-in-qt5

If we want to move forward to a webinterface and configuration in general we need to ensure that you are able to fix issue with the webinterface as much as possible.

If hyperion leads to a crash the websever is also gone and you just get a blank page (?)
Parts that could lead to this

• a corrupted .json or a not compatible one
• wrong configured led device (output f.e.)
• a enabled component that is not found at the system (v4l2)

we should find ways to prevent here a crash of hyperion that you are able to fix it. (As long that could done) and create better logoutput that describes better what happend now.
