Hi
New at this so there could be stupid question involved 
I built me a system and i have a usb hardware grabber but i had problem to get i to work and then found hyperionscreencap.exe app for pc. I want PC as i also stream Steam to the machine so i can play games from my gaming pc in in my livingroom and i want ledshow on that to.
The options im considering:
Option 1
HTPC --network--> RPI3 --usb--> LEDSTRIP
Option 2
HTPC --hdmi--> HDMISPLITTER --hdmi--> HDMI 4K SCALER --svideo--> USB GRABBER --usb-->RPI3 --usb--> LEDSTRIP
is there any difference between the two options and any negative or postive sides to the options(like less accurate and so on)?
Is there any software for windows so i dont even need the RPI to run hyperion and i can run it on the pc altogether?
