yupp it was my lousy skills...

for any newbs on mac who needs this:

first you have to show hidden files and folder:

start up terminal and write:

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE

hold down alt and leftclick finder choose "relaunch"

now you will see the hidden folder

at me it was under this path:
/Users/mymac/.Lightpack

here profiles lies for your pleasure ;)

again thx for trying to help, but i got it now... ...now the fun part starts :)

Version 5.9.3 is there. Whats new with it?

Edit: That version sucks, lights are flickering in movies in the wrong color. Its annoying, i'm going back to 9.1.

You could play with "Luminosity threshold" and "Luminosity threshold mode". We need to smooth transition from colored scene near luminosity threshold and non-colored backlight at minimum luminosity level, so there is some algorithm to do that, which doesn't work very well obviously, please help us to make it better. Please be more specific and provide us with extra info: movie name, scene of the movie, settings you have.

Update:

Changelog:
  • MacOS X support
    Fixed hotkeys in MacOS
    D3D9 hooks
    XBMC plugin 1.0.6
    Minor bugfixes

5.9.5 is still a freaking chaotic lightshow, whatever you changed since 9.1 was very wrong. :(

Ok, now i know what is the reason and i will fix it as soon as possible, unfortunately we don't have real Adalight to test so you became our testers, obviously we have to get real Adalight to avoid such situations in future.

Thanks.

Thanks very much for the new Version. This terminates the "flickering-Bug" but I can't control the intensity of the light in the Mood lamp mode. The only thing that happen if i drag down the intensity modulator on the right side is that the ligt becomes more and more white. Thanks for your awesome programm anyway.

You are welcome! We glad to create something useful. What exactly do you want Prismatik to do and what exactly do you do? It is better to report an issue and describe precisely your problem there.
