Hi Ambilight Team
French dealer MediaHD , specialist XBMC, lent me a model (Adafruit + Teensy) ( not still received )
Available Package: 25 - 50 - 75 - 100 - 125 - 150 LED (more info in French Forum )
Package for test : 50 LED

LED : Strip 25 LED WS2801 http://www.adafruit.com/products/322 | https://www.adafruit.com/products/461

	12mm diameter (0.45") 75mm deep (1.5")
	88mm / 3.5" apart on the strand
	25 pieces per strand
	New! These pixels use a WS2801 chip for full 24 bit color
	5V power, 60mA maximum per pixel (LED on full white)
	2-pin SPI-like protocol
	WS2801 Datasheet for the chip inside each pixel
	Brightness: Red = 3.3 Lumens/300 mcd, Green = 10 Lumens/1000 mcd, Blue = 2.7 Lumens/300 mcd (mcd calculation based on full 120 degree beam)

Board : Teensy (i think model V2 ) http://pjrc.com/teensy/index.html

No more info.
@MacGyver2k
The Question is : This can be work with atmowin 0.51 ? is only system available in France !

 

[MacGyver2k]

on the french installation site (http://www.mediahd.fr/content/18-installation-ambitv-pour-windows) they use Prismatik as the controller software under windows with the adalight protocol. To my knowledge adalight is currently not implemented in atmowin.
So it would not work through atmowin or the atmowin plugin unless someone implements it (shouldn't be too hard).
But since Prismatik can "screen caputre" on it's own (at least i guess it does), you still can use it. But this needs more cpu power.

Would be interesting if this screen capture method they use (with processing) works without problems while AERO is enabled...AtmoWin doesnt work well without the MP Plugin because AERO will be switched off automatically once AtmoWin has started.

You can't add protocol in Atmowin ( or an other guy ) ?
l like idea, to select options, for work with Atmolight plugin.

 

[legnod]

You can take a look at his...maybe this Arduino firmware will work with the teensy hardware

You don't loose, avantage on playing video ?

Please be aware that disabling AERO under Vista will introduce tearing. MediaPortal's V-sync is managed by the AERO and with AERO disabled it is not possible to "snap" frame presentation to the v-sync (in theory it would be possible, but would require lot of ugly code in dshowhelper.dll).

Uhm sorry...i dont understand what you want to ask

@Rick164
can you says me, if your modded version of atmowin can work with package on Post#172 ?

Uhm sorry...i dont understand what you want to ask

if Windows Aero is disabled, you don't lose Video quality ?
