capture problem

  • Hello,


    I am new here so thanks in advance for any help, much appreciated.


    Hardware:
    Apple TV 4k
    LG 65"
    Raspberry PI 3 met Hyperbian 2.0.0 alpha 9
    WS2812B RGD 60 LED strip
    20A 5 v voeding
    Video capture with loop


    When I start up the Raspberry the LED strip runs the start-up effect and if I choose an idle effect all works great.


    However, Ambilight is not working. If I open up the LED Visualisation and select live video I do not see the video stream.


    Any help much appreciated.


    Dank,
    Robert

  • Hi TIA,


    I had a long chat on the Dutch forum about this issue (great support from Jeroen Warmerdam) and decided to order a new capture card. I am currently looking to order the Easyday and an HDMI to AV converter.


    thanks,
    Robert

  • Are you running the capture card from the 20A PSU?


    Also your source Apple TV 4K is going into a 1080p capture card so your picture quality is getting down scaled from 4K to 1080p.


    Im running 60/pm LED's on a 49" TV total of 204 LEDS and I have a 20A 5V what is your total LED count?


    Have a look in LED Hardware and check what LED Layout Preview says for me Total LEDs: 204 Max. power consumption: 13.5 A


    My setup is as follows


    Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+
    Hyperion version: 2.0.0-alpha.9
    Regulated Switching Power Supply 5V 20A
    EZCOOTECH HDMI Splitter 1x2 4K so it will send 4K / Dolby Vision / Atmos to TV and 1080p to the Pi
    Xiancai HDMI to USB2.0 1080P capture card
    CHINLY 1m 60leds WS2812B


    Picture below is my old PSU before I installed a more powerful one


  • Hi Johhny,


    I have a 20A 5V power supply which powers the LED's and the PI for the capture card I had a separate powersupply.


    I have a total of 178 LED's (65" LG UHD TV) I did not put LED's on the bottom as the TV stands so no free space below.


    The LED's work fine with Hyperion in de start-up cyle and when idle so the problem I have is purely with the capturing of the HDMI signal. You make a good point on the downscaling so I have returned the capture card to Amazon.


    Can you send me the exact details of your capture card and splitter as I have problems finding them with Amazon.


    Thankls,
    Robert

  • I just posted about this and then saw this post. I think it has to do with the input resolution. Mine changed to 720p for some reason and then I started getting the snowy screen and no led changed but white. Now I set to 1080p and I get the video coming up in Hyperion and my leds are changing colors. will have to play more with it to get it right...
