PicCap - Hyperion Sender App | Ambilight for LG WebOS TVs

  • Hello, i have piccap working with hyperhdr-webos working. But i dont know why it has some kind of 'lag' (0.5ms) when displays the colors.


    My LG info is:

    "board_type": "K5LP_ATSC",

    "hardware_id": "HE_DTV_W19P_AFADATAA",

    "product_id": "43UM7360PSA",

    "core_os_release": "4.9.7-17",

    "webos_manufacturing_version": "05.30.40"


    And my hardware is a esp8266.


    When i use hyperion from my pc and use the capture monitor config, the lights works like a charm.

    Also if i try to connect the piccap to my pc hyperion, it detect as flatbuffer server (i know this is ok) but the lag is still there.


    Any suggest?


    Thanks, regards.


    nvm, i solved it through ethernet cable on the tv. Seems i have some wifi issue.


    Thanks!

  • Hello,


    I'm currently looking into switching my Ambilight setup, which is currently still running on a discontinued "Dreamscreen" solution via scaler on the 2nd HDMI output of my AVR, to a WebOS+Piccap+ESP32WLED solution.

    The only limitations I have at the moment are that of course no internal TV works with Ambilight and externally fed HDR is displayed with pale colors on the Ambilight.


    This is my question: Since both SDR and HDR content is displayed via the TV, is this automatically recognized/considered somewhere in Piccap or in Hyperion or in WLED or do I have to change a setting manually in one of the programs depending on the SDR/HDR/DV picture mode so that the LEDs show the same good colour reproduction?


    I once had an insight into an implementation with HyperHDR, which had a tone mapping function that I believe had to be switched On or Off depending on the SDR or HDR content, or had to be triggered via a script.


    Surely there is already more successful experience with Piccap here!
