Hi,

I have a couple of RGB leds in my desktop setup. But currently I'm unable to configure them to work with SimHub. I could write a plugin, but that would mean I need to reimplement everything the arduino leds support.

My suggestion is to change the arduino output to a more abstract Output interface. If such a system was implemented, 3rd parties (like me) could develop plugins which implement the this output interface. One implementation of this output interface would of course be arduino. But others, like WLED, could be implemented. This way, support for many more led outputs could be added by plugins, instead of burdening Whotever even more.

So right now I did see there was amblight compatibility HOWEVER that also means that you have to plug in the controller though USB (which can work, but I had some issues trying it before). Wish we could connect to IP address. I am currently using Hyperion which captures the screen and streams to my LEDs that I have behind my monitor. https://hyperion-project.org/forum/ I had also built and added a WLED strip under my rig and would like to add game effects to it. However the way the screen matching works not sure it would honestly look or work well as the top being the sky and bottom being the ground wouldn't really see proper lighting effects and if you are in cockpit view then could have a lot of color matching not doing anything since the edges are already darker etc. 

 

I may try plugging in my WLED controller and I think it may work as WLED will be amblight compatible. I am using ESP32 / and 8266 boards for my controllers so I don't think would even need to worry about the ardoino compatibility.
