[QUOTE="Gradlock, post: 1219522, member: 57130"] Well shoot. I am using OSMC as my OS, find it more responsive and flexible for what I am doing since I also have the Pi working as a VPN server. The couple of days ago my LEDs would flicker really bad in dark scenes, almost like a strobe light. Rebooting the PI did not fix the problem and nether did creating a new config file. Decided to check the PSU which is siimilar to the one that guru88 has. Had it for about a year and everything had worked flawlessly until then. It's supposed to be 5v give or take a few microvolts. I checked it with a multimeter and I was getting readings of 12v to 15v! If it weren't because OSMC has a known issue that causes Hyperion to stop working after several hours ( fixed by rebooting the Pi ) who knows if my LEDs would have been damaged. Ordered a new PSU and will have to wait until Monday to see what happens. [/QUOTE]
