Hello,
I have had an ambilight setup on my TV since the days of Boblight. My current TV is a 65" with 206 LPD8806 based LED's around it. I have a 5v 15A power supply (if memory serves correctly).
I recently upgraded that TV to an 85" and I want to build a new LED setup. Lately I have been using "Android Hyperion Grabber" but I am interested in going the hardware capture route.
Can anyone offer me some guidance on:
1) What LED strip is likely the best choice for such a large screen?
2) What HDMI capture card/converter is most commonly used with RPi's? I have an STK based capture card but no HDMI converter/splitter.
My Denon AVR has dual HDMI outputs so I shouldn't need a splitter but I'd like to preserve all current HDMI 2.1 / HDCP 2.3 functionality so if sticking with the software capture is best thats fine.
Thanks in advance!
I think I am leaning for APA107 or HD107s for the LED's. As for the capture/splitter I can't read the recommendation threads very well because they are primarily written in German.
Does having the additional output on my Denon AVR help make things easier on the HDCP / HDR / Dolby Vision front or would I still risk breaking certain formats with the wrong splitter?
