Have you tried a different video source to see if the issue is universal or only with the Firestick?

The first thing I'd do is double check that your cables support all the right protocols. I had to get 18Gbps cables to get my Chromecast working properly with my 4k/HDR switch.

I I'm used to working on tube /valve amps and other analog electronics, and have some coding background, but the is my first venture into the world of digital electronics.

My supply has an adjustable output voltage, and I've got several multimeter, so that's not an issue. I can set up a star ground using the ground of the 20A supply as the common, since it will have a grounded power cord attached. Does that seem the best way to do it?

Just starting a build (my first), and it looks like 270 LEDs from a 60 LED/meter WS2812B strip for a 65" TV. That figures to almost 18A, and I've got a 20A supply. Is the RPi4 going to be too much additional load on the same supply? Would a common ground tie between the PSU and the RPi GND pin be a reasonable solution to run the separate regular RPi USB C PSU? I know that's not best practice. And is there any reason not to just plug the ESP8266 board running WLED into the Pi to power it?

I'm just starting on pulling a system together. Looking to feed the HDMI outputs from a Mac mini, Apple TV, Blu-Ray player, and a Chromecast to my LG 65" UN7300 4k TV. Got an RPi 4B, ESP8266, WS2812B 5m strip, 100W PSU, and various small parts on the way. I was looking at capture cards, but I thought that this Monoprice HDMI 4x2 4k switch might eliminate the need for a splitter and enable me to keep everything easily accessible. Does this seem like a good idea, and has anybody tried this particular unit?
