I need some help with xbmc and ledblinky please.

[Natdiamond]

I have it set to run from hyperhq. I'm using an ledwiz-16 with led blinky. and it works fine on HS and mame. But I'm having issues getting it to dance to the music. When I have the ledblinky configuration tool open, and I run a test, it will ask me to play some music. So if I open xbmc directly OR open HS and use my wheel to open xbmc in HS, all the dancing lights work to the music. But without the configuration tool open. when I re start HS, no dancing lights in xbmc. I tried running it from a batch file like described HERE. It runs fine but still did not get it working on its own. Any suggestions?

This support link should help: http://ledblinky.net/Support.htm#Jukebox

[Natdiamond]

Thanks arzoo. I ended up having to go command line. Also making sure to use hyperHQ to start and end ledblinky.exe. Now it works like a charm with XBMC

[Natdiamond]

Well arzoo, I'm still having issues. It seems that after I run the debug tool, or while it's running it, or while the config tool is running, the dancing lights work in xbmc. But after restarting HS. The dancing lights don't work with xbmc anymore. I see the ledblinky start animation start and run, then a few seconds later, the stop or end animation runs, the no dancing lights. In hyperHQ under startup, I have the start & exit programs set to ledblinky.exe with "LEDBlinky.exe 1" for start param and "LEDBlinky.exe 2" for exit. With the quotes. Can you take a look at my debug file please and maybe make heads or tails of it?
