I am coming from a Dreamscreen 4k with a WS2813 LED Stripes (44LEDs / M, 5.75m Roll, 253 LEDs) and am looking to upgrade. I now have a 4k@120hz 77" OLED, a powerful gaming home theater PC, and a PS5. I would like to be able to do 4k@120hz w/ ambient lighting and VRR. I think the following hardware will get me most the way:
hdmi 2.1 splitter/downscaler https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B7W94LHB?tag=hyperioforum-21 which will get me from 4k@120hz to 1080@120hz
1080@120hz capture card https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073WJ2XTZ?tag=hyperioforum-21 will have to adjust for HDR in the software I guess
Once I confirm its working with those I will get this splitter so I can have both PC and PS5 attached https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BWCS32VC?tag=hyperioforum-21
Now I am curious as to how I should attach this to my current LED strip. My plan is I would run Hyperion on my home theater PC. Then can I just use a ESP32 board like this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09Z298QJQ?tag=hyperioforum-21 with WLED and send the signal from my PC over ethernet? Would rather not run a RPi if I don't have to, but if its better for latency I can. Should I change/upgrade my LED strip? Also looks like I can still use my Dreamscreen sidekicks as they can be flashed to use WLED https://www.reddit.com/r/dream…ick_with_wled_esphome_no/
