Mir wurde schon mehrfach berichtet sowie auch bei mir festgestellt das des öfteren die LEDs nach dem Starten an bleiben. In Hyperion Control ist aber die Funktion aktiviert “ Aktiviere Hyperion beim Starten" und "Deaktiviere Hyperion beim Beenden".

Was ist mit "an" bleiben gemeint? Wenn Hyperion aktiviert wird beim Starten, dann sollten die LEDs auch angehen, sofern das LedDevice an war.

I had a similar problem (pls let me know if you need a German translation):

Problem:

If the hyperion service is started before the Kodi UI is fully up, both menu detection and border detection is broken:

if menu detection is on ("grabMenu" : false is set for "xbmcVideoChecker"), then the LEDs don't turn on once a video is started
even with "grabMenu" : true, the black border detection does not work i.e. LEDs at top and bottom of screen stay off when a video with black borders is played.

Workaround:

Both issues described above are gone if the hyperion service starts a bit later when the kodi UI is up.

example of how this can be implemented with a systemd unit.

System info:

Raspberry pi 4B 2GB
libreelec 9.2.0
vanilla hyperion installation, installed March 14 (also occurs with libreelec hyperion addon v 9.2.0.112)
WS2812 LEDs with adalight

Thank you for your feedback

Are you using hyperion or a very old version of hyperion.ng? The classic Hyperion has no API available for this addon.
