It seems like you didn't adjust the "maximum current" setting in WLED - that's why you had better results when you switched to "Energy efficient" leds. You should go back there, put 10000 in the "maximum current" box (12A power supply = 12000 mA, I'm suggesting you put 10000 there, because I'm just a random guy from the internet) and then switch back to "5V default LEDS". That should make the leds MUCH brighter

Mhh... I watch content _exclusively_ coming from either my PC or Xbox ( so neither Cable/Sattelite TV or iNet/Streaming _from_ my TV ) so with my current Ambilight Setup I'm having my PC Capture its own content and stream the Data to a TeensyDuino which then controls the 318 LEDs ( th-cam.com/video/OgBASfUwStI/w-d-xo.html ) - This basically means that when I switch over from HDMI2 ( my PC ) to HDMI4 ( my XBox ) it'll not be capturing what the Xbox is sending to the TV as obviously the Xbox is neither running its own capture software nor is it connected to the Teensy like the PC is. Does _your_ solution capture only content coming from "within" the TV ( iNet/Streaming ) or will it capture ANY content coming from whichever Source ( Streaming/HDMI1-4/AV, etc... ) is currently set as active? Reading some of your comments it looks like the System is capturing content from the TV using the TVs Hyperion Android App which is then being sent to a Raspberry Pi or NAS running Hyperion and after processing there has the signal forwarded to the LED Controller behind the TV? How does LAG stack up? Mine is probably in the sub 300ms range and while perceivable not distracting.
Boa tarde Ricardo! Tudo bem? Amigo, aqui fiz todo o procedimento, mas não consigo fazer funcionar em nenhum aplicativo fullscreen(sei que não funciona em Netflix, prime, etc). Meu problema está sendo até mesmo no TH-cam, myfamily, etc. O led funciona apenas nos menus. Tem alguma ideia do que possa ser?
Hello, perfect work! You have motivated me to switch my ambilight from computer to Android TV. All works fine except video input, the Hyperion is getting data only in menu or video from Kodi. How did you managed the video input for Hyperion?
Thanks 🙂 As mentioned in previous comments and at the beginning of the video, this method doesn't work with DRM protected apps like Netflix. If you need that you must use a hdmi capture insted of the Android capture app
You probably can but the integration is a lot different. In the video I use Wled as a custom firmware for controlling the leds, that firmware is only available for an Esp8266, so for the Rpi you need to find another approach
