The Philips Hue Play Gradient Lightstrip has been an awesome addition to my smart home and paired with the Hue Sync Box it has brought all my movies and shows to life. In this video I go over tips I've learned about the lightstrip, how to take control of the gradient with iConnectHue and show how other Hue users have lit the bottom of the TV with Hue Play bars.

What streaming device is HuePlay compatible with? I tried Roku but Roku isn’t compatible with Spectrum anymore. I got an Apple TV device and it worked for a little while then I had issues with the hue play and they sent a replacement. I couldn’t get it to work though connected the same way. So I have to go back to the Roku and I get jerky video since Roku/Spectrum are no longer compatible. What are my choices to get everything to mesh together?

The last example is what I did with a mounted 75”. 5 play bars at the bottom, facing downward. It worked very well. If you do this, be sure to bring them high enough so that the light itself is not visible and it blends with the gradient strip. The example shows this perfectly. Helpful video.

Hi Justin! Happy New Year to you! Just wanted to pick your brain? Took the plunge and bought the sync box with 2 play bars to sync in with a light strip. Connected all up and works well however every so often the screen blanks out and loses the picture and syncing. Have tried all the ports and still the same. Also wanted to know if you would know the answer to the following. I know the sync box cannot cope with a 3d signal via the sync box due to the way the signals are sent. But wonder if a video splitter that filtered out the 3d signal and fed back into the sync box would work with a direct video fed to the tv? If so would you know of any spitters that would perform? ttfn

It was also interesting how to implement full backlighting from four sides. But you have not considered the option of using two gradient lightstrips. If one lightstrip can cover only three sides, then maybe you can take the smallest one and use two of them and then they will be enough for all four sides of the TV. Is it possible? Will it work correctly in screen capture mode? (I have 65" LG OLED TV)

How do you think the gradient light would fit on the back on an LG OLED TV? Ive noticed all of the TVs featured are LCD TVs that have pretty even backs, whereas the LG OLEDs have a super thin top half, with the bottom half of the back protruding out a good 3-4 inches.

Thanks for the great review, love it! I have a question: is it possible to use the 75" strip on a 65" TV? My concern is that, 75" strip will overhang the two sides of 65" TV, which will cause the color mismatch or not line up with the TV. I want 75" simply because I may upgrade my TV in the near future. Thank you.

It may be possible to finagle it so it curves in a bit on the bottom.

How do you get the additional play bars to sync with the strip and the tv content?

It's all done on the hue app in the "entertainment area" section of settings. My Hue Sync Box Review explains.

Great video, though, I find on my 65” lg b8, the closer the tv is the wall, the easier it makes it to distinguish between colors when it’s running. I’m surprised you think it looks better the farther away from the wall (up to a certain distance of course).

@@Justin_tech agreed. I actually tried it out again a bit farther away from the wall and it looks better! Also, thanks for the iConnect tip. It’s really cool that it uses the gradient light as separate zones. Think give me hope a firmware update will come which will allow us to controls each zone through the hue app (fingers crossed). Keep up the great content!

No you can’t wrap it around the bottom. It won’t sync properly.

Justin ...... So i can use this Ambilight set for my non Ambilight SAMSUNG Q950T TV yes? The main problem with this set is you have to sacrifice one of my 4x HDMI Terminals (all 4 already taken) yes? If the answer in both cases is a yes then i must find a solution to get my extre one more HDMI port for this set + don't even think about the 6th HDMI Terminal for SONY PST 5 (6 HDMI in total)

The light doesn’t need an hdmi port, the hue sync box does, but the sync box has 4 ports on it, so you’d have more than before. Or just as much if you decide to plug everything into it

Justin, I have a question about the Phillips HUE gradient lights for behind a TV. My living room is situated in such a way that when you enter the room I see a side view of my TV. I’m worried that the side view of the HUE light strip will be visually unattractive and detract from the ambience of the room since everyone will see that view when entering the room. You know, kind of like seeing behind the scenes at Disneyland. What do you think? I don’t have an example to go look at.

Have you seen where the lights are no longer searchable in the Philips Hue app? Even new lights have to be added with the serial number. I even tried a new Hub and I got the same results. - Any suggestions? It started when I added the Philips TV light- after a few steps, I lost every light in my home. I had to remove every bulb and get the serial number, then rebuild every room. - So fustrating! I recently added a new Playbar and again - had to use the serial number. Any help would be greatly appriciated. - Martin

@Justin_tech
@Justin_tech 3 жыл бұрын
It really depends on your setup and what looks best. It’s definitely easier to attach them aiming at the wall using the included mounts. I feel like it may look better facing the wall because it will diffuse the light better. Just make sure to test out the height before attaching. You don’t want them to outside the gradient strip, so they may need to go higher than expected.
