Awaiting further evidence. Could be an incompatibility with the Arduino Uno.

codeincontext commented 13 years ago

Arduino Uno is listed as usbmodem. Older models are listed as usbserial.

Quick and dirty fix for this. Still need to implement a device picker, rather than assuming it is the first Arduino connected to the system. Untested (don't have an Uno).

Can't get it to work at all with my Uno, any suggestions?

codeincontext commented 12 years ago

Are you using the version in the download link or the latest build?

theStig2310 commented 12 years ago

download link, can't get the latest built to compile in Xcode. just get the spinning rainbow of death.

theStig2310 commented 12 years ago

Well it says it has succeeded but hovering over the menubar it gets the wheel

codeincontext commented 12 years ago

The build in the download link was before uno support was added. I'll see if I can get a new build out for you today.

EDIT: Sorry, just saw your second post. Have posted some updates that could fix

codeincontext commented 12 years ago

The latest version should be at https://github.com/skattyadz/MacLight/downloads

I've made some changes to make it more robust, particularly working around an issue where the screen capturing fails in Lion

theStig2310 commented 12 years ago

Still no luck, maybe i'm doing something wrong. Are you able to put out a .app version.

Downloading the latest Xcode, will see if that makes any difference. I was running 4.1, updating to 4.2.1

codeincontext commented 12 years ago

That should be the .app version? Direct link is here (it's within a .zip) https://github.com/downloads/skattyadz/MacLight/MacLight.zip

theStig2310 commented 12 years ago

Got it working now, opened the wrong one out of my downloads folder.

EDIT: However the screen average won't work. Late '09 iMac running 10.7.2

Just quits/.

Yea I can't wait to fix that. See here: https://github.com/skattyadz/MacLight/issues/1
