Title: RGBcommander & PACLED64 hardware fading
Post by: obilan on May 30, 2018, 10:34:38 am
Hi there,

i'm running a PACLED64 with recalbox/RGBcommander on a RPI2. I would like to use the PACLED64s hardware fading for rgba animations. Every time an animations starts the fadeSpeed is set to 0 :

Code: [Select]
30/05/18 16:03:41 [INFO] [startListening] processing command  set,animation,fadetest_32
30/05/18 16:03:41 [INFO] [processCmd] #args is 3
30/05/18 16:03:41 [INFO] [processCmd] set
30/05/18 16:03:41 [INFO] [processCmd] animation
30/05/18 16:03:41 [INFO] [processCmd] fadetest_32
30/05/18 16:03:41 [INFO] [fadeSpeed] PACLED64_1 fadespeed set to  0 -> SUCCESS
30/05/18 16:03:41 [INFO] [setRGBAspeed] RGBA fadetest_32 speed set to 100
30/05/18 16:03:41 [INFO] [RGBAthread] rgba fadetest_32 play back start at speed 100

I've tried the fade/delay attributes from flash animation in my fadetest_32.rgba file, but with no success.

Code: [Select]
<flash fade="160" delay="170">
...
</flash>

Code: [Select]
<anim fade="160" delay="170">
<frm dec="0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,255"/>
<frm dec="0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,255,255"/>
<frm dec="0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,255,255,255"/>
<frm dec="0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,255,255,255,255"/>
<frm dec="0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,255,255,255,255,255"/>
<tms dec="20,20,20,20,20"/>
</anim>

Is there a way to set fading with/in rgba animations or to disable the reset to 0?

kind regards

Hi,

no, there is no option to control the hardware fade at the moment. It should be easy to implement in combination with the animations though...
I'll look into it. Could take a few days. I'm a little bit busy atm.

Cheers

Hi,

I was wondering if there's any progress. I'm still interested in the topic. Since you don't want to pass the sources on, it would be great if you could compile a special version for me, in which the instruction ([fadeSpeed] PACLED64_1 fadespeed set to  0 -> SUCCESS) is commented out.

kind regards
