That's interesting, at the moment, I have the grabber connected to the AVR 2nd HDMI, I was able to play NF and Amazon video and the grabber picked it up. I purchased the splitter from the link below based on some recommendation thinking I was going to need it. I'll hang on to it just in case.

Robot or human?

Decided to test this and confirm that it works if anyone is interested

Since my AVR (Pioneer SC-LX502) have a 2nd HDMI out that mirrors the primary video, would that be sufficient to allow HDCP to work when connected to the Pi so that Amazon Prime and Netflix would work?

In live view I'm getting black screen but I read that version 2.1.1 liveview is broken.

I've gone through setting up Hyperion and WLED and I confirmed that Hyperion is able to pass data to WLED by doing the RGB Byte order wizard and the color is correct.

I'm using a Pi 4 and currently testing HDMI with my laptop and can confirm that my laptop see the capture card as a second screen.

The PI can see the capture card and recognize all the resolutions but my LED are not lit.

Thanks for all the responses. I've decided that I won't be directly controlling the LED with the PI. I'm going to try to do Hyperion/WLED route as it seems to be the simplest and I'm already familiar with WLED

Thanks for the info... so if I'm understanding this correctly, the 5v and 12v ground goes together?

Here's my 3 year old drawing of the simplified version. This assumption is correct?

BTW, this setup is going around a 75" tv I'm calculating about 17feet of LED. To make it less complicated, would it be better if I used 5v SK6812?

I have a Raspberry Pi 4 that I plan on using the original 5v 3a power supply via USB.

For the LED I plan on using 12v SK6812, would I be connecting just the data pin to the pi and 12v to neg/pos of the led?

I see some diagram requiring resisters etc...

First time attempting to work with Hyperion/Hyper HDR. Based on everything that I've read, this is my plan.

I have an HDMI splitter input from my AVR to the splitter one to a video capture card one to the TV.

I have already Rasberry Pi 4 that I've loaded Rasberry OS lite on to run headless, I'm reading some of mentioning GPIO 18 on the Raspi as the data to the LED while other mentioning of an ESP32.

I'm familiar with WLED and have lots of them running through out the house. If I went with ESP32 WLED route, then it would be WLED to the TV as any other WLED and then wireless communicate from Hyperion or HyperHDR to IT?

I much rather have the LED physically control by the Raspberry Pi if possible as I feel there is stability issues with anything wireless.

Seems SK6812 is going to give me best result so that's my plan for LED.
