Converted to OpenELEC build environment, many settings updates, Cubox workaround #2

Closed hardyt closed 8 years ago

hardyt commented 8 years ago

Update 20160208: -Made this work with OpenELEC's build system. Now you should be able to build this for most platforms! Place the package.mk in OpenELEC.tv/packages/mediacenter/kodi-binary-addons/visualization.waveforhue and hope that the archive is still up at my personal web host. Otherwise adjust the package.mk and make your own .tar.xz. -Made the name more uniform - WavforHue / visualization.wavforhue (eliminating the first 'e'), it wasn't consistent until now -Updated the icon to match the name -Made a minor update to the code that was generating a warning -Huge update for me! - visualization.waveform (on which this plugin is based) has a 1/4 flat waveform when used on a Cubox with HDMI audio out selected. I added an option in the visualization settings to adjust for the problem if desired. It's just a workaround. I hope the OpenELEC imx6 guys can fix this. -Implemented a ton of new settings for what happens after the music stops and which lights to dim while the music is playing. Generally this addon is sending so much traffic to the Hue Bridge that only three lights can really be actively changing. More than that and the curl library starts hanging up on waiting for the Hue Bridge to respond. That causes a jerky waveform and possibly stuttering music. This will happen regardless of your hardware. It's a Hue Bridge / network limitation.

Ok, I'll maintain my branch. I'll try to get an easy Hue Bridge processes implemented and mirror the structures in the official repo before submit the pull request there.

Thanks!
