HDFury Diva as a spliter for Dolby Vision?

    Hello,

    I’m very new to all this and appreciate all help!

    I have a 4K Dolby Vison and HDR10 capable tv - Sony Bravia XF9005 - Denon AvR X2300W and Apple TV and PlayStation 5 as media players.


    I would like to setup Hyperion on my raspberry pi and use it for ambient lightning. I understand that Dolby Vision content is troublesome as most splitters do not support the format. However, could I use HDFury Diva as a splitter - send 4K Dolby vision to my tv and 1080p to raspberry pi? Expensive solution I know but I try to use Dolby vision content whenever possible.


    If there are alternatives please do let me know


    Thanks

    Definitely not at the moment, but a little advantage is that the HDFury Diva can directly control a limited number of LEDs. Some users wrote that certain combinations of splitters and video capture cards worked. You can find this in here. Another and cheaper possibility could be the camera method. But it's all in german.

    Adjust Camera in Hyperion - Color - Help required
    Dear Friends,
    I try to setup Hyperion with my Pi Cam, but I have issues calibrating. I took a picture to show the problem on a white screen.
    Due to capturing the screen image via camera and the viewing angle the camera detects a certain "gradient" where it should be white.
    I mean I can related why this happens but I dont know if I can compensate it.

    Is there any option in hyperion how to correct for this or any other suggestions? Is the Camera the problem?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    If you have a spare webcam, a raspberry pi. You can test with the preview pane what your camera method can do for you.

    This is my daily driver.

    Changed the title of the thread from “HDFury Diva as a splinter for Dolby Visio?” to “HDFury Diva as a spliter for Dolby Vision?”.

    So camera is an alternative to using HDFury and reading other threads it works quite well. But does that mean that a splitter like Fury would work too? Mike72 you mentioned that Diva can directly control limited number of leds but reading about it it only supports hdfury's branded led strips https://www.hdfury.com/product/ambient-leds/ although not sure how these would be different from any other strips

    Im curious to understand where the camera is placed to achieve the same with a camera?

    ptrh: I don't know if other LED types also works. At the link you can see these are 4-wire-LEDs like APA102 or SK9822.

    Maybe these will work with the Diva, but not sure. Beside the unknown LED type, the price would put me off... :huh:

    Here is my setup, the camera is about 2 meters from the TV.

    pi zero + webcam setup
    Here is my setup

    - pi zero
    - logitech c270 camera
    - apa102 (only 80 leds)
    - 4 meters cable between leds and pi zero
    - woodeen frame

    All made of spare part, on my older TV i had an hyperion setup with pi zero, usb grabber + splitter.
    I changed because of two reasons
    1. new TV, PS5, HDMI 2.1 : i didn't want compromise on HDMI flux and cheap 2.1 splitters doesn't exist
    2. Always add problems. sometimes grabber or splitter stop working for a second or mire. I restarded Hyperion instance 3 times a day. Sometime
