Hi all,
I have been checking out some video's on youtube for some years trying to build my own ambilight, the philips ambilight tv's have only 1 thing thats really good on them.... the ambilight! I checked out the video by steve does stuff and figured out that this was an easy enough build for me to do.
Parts: Pi 0w, WS2812B strip, power supply of 10 A, HDMI splitter, HDMI to usb vid. capture, and Arduino nano.
I followed the the tutorial and ended up getting the pi setup to work completely. I can see the live image of the HDMI in the live view but the LED's dont respond. In the beginning the first2 leds showed white and the 3rd green. Every other off. After restarting the pi and the arduino they light up in the beginning . It shows Blue red green and then off.
Does anyone have a clue to what i could do differently to get the setup working ?

Thanks a lot for helping (this project as been sitting on the shelf for 2 months now out of frustration )
