Hi there,
I watched this video and decided to give this a go:
I did a test run using some WS2812B I had remaining from another project. I just used Hyperion Screen Capture on my Windows 10 PC and everything looks awesome and works fine.
I will set this up for my main TV which only takes a PS4 Pro as input. I have ordered more LEDs and appropriate power supply and a pack of 100 ohm resistors.
Questions:
1) Is a 100 ohm resistor helpful to have in the data line between Pi and LEDs? In an Arduino project I just completed using WS2812B LEDs, it was pretty much a must to have a 200-300 ohm resistor on data line. Similar situation here? I saw someone mention in a thread few years ago about the benefits of having a resistor. No harm in having, right?
2) The capture card the video links and what seems very popular for this project does not output in compliance with HDCP 2.3 and only does 1.4. This prevents 4K Netflix on my PS4 Pro using the loop back output.
Is there any suitable capture card or alternative method I can perhaps do instead to meet my needs?
Thanks!
