Hi! So right now, I've kind of given up on trying to get any video signal from the smart TV, and plan on moving an Apple TV to the room and using that mainly. I'm hoping to have it sync with two sources, my ps4 and the Apple TV, and ideally both at 4k 60hz. Can anyone help with what the best HDMI splitter or capture card would be for this, that wouldn't break the bank either? Thank you!

Hey, thanks for the reply! Right now, I use a ps4 connected via HDMI for occasional gaming, but use the samsung smart TV's built in interface most of the time, to watch media, etc. Was hoping there would be a way to sync the lights with content playing from the smart TV, though that doesn't seem to be the case, unless I am wrong. Thanks for all the links, I'll look into them!

Hey everyone,
Thanks in advance. I’m a home assistant guy, who’s still relatively a beginner, and I’ve been meaning to set up and try out Hyperion on my TV for a while, just never had the time to research all the lighting and parts. I was originally planning to have it integrated within the raspberry pi that is already running home assistant, but after some quick research, I believe I can’t do that because I wouldn’t be able to connect lights or video grabbers to it (unless I’m wrong, please correct me if I am).
Anyways, I have a spare pi lying around, and plan to use that instead. My question is, what other hardware do I need? Not sure what video grabbers to get, or actual lights for the 75 inch smart TV that I plan to put it on. I find the documentation on this a little confusing, and was hoping someone would be able to help me. Also wonder if it would be able to get any video info from the smart TV, or only when I am using external sources (like a ps4). Thank you!

ah I see. ill look into that then, thanks!

ohh, so I wouldn't be able to physically attach anything to the pi (lights and the grabbers you mentioned)?

You could try the Hyperion add-on for HaOS https://community.home-assista…add-on-hyperion-ng/226850 .
Hi! Im also wondering if I could install Hyperion on the same pi4 that I have home assistant running on. If I use that add on, does it mean I just need to grab some leds and then hook it up (and all the installation stuff of course), or is it more of an integration where I still need a separate device running Hyperion and managing the hardware? thank you!
