like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, kzfaq.infoUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....

@michaelrobertson
@michaelrobertson 4 жыл бұрын
Its a bit of a strange question but can you organise the lights per input source on the box? Or is it only based on the Output. For example, I currently have a cheap LED strip powered through USB which turns blue by default when my PS4 is on. So when I use my Apple TV it doesn't light up the strip. Lets say I had 3 lights on my TV.. left (1), right (2) and top (3) and then had a Philips Hue Strip under my PS4 shelf. Could I set it up to turn on lights 1, 2, 3 and Strip for HDMI Input 1 (PS4) but HDMI Input 2 (Apple TV) only use Lights 1, 2 and 3? I hope that makes sense..

Am I able to use my lights on the TV without having the Sync Box or a bridge ? For example, if I hook up the lights to my tv and then plug in the lights, am I able to use the app to control the light color. I understand the point of the sync box is for the lights to be in sync with the game system/movie I’m on, but if I just want to be able to control the color of the light on my TV (like putting one solid color) will I be able to ?

Thanks for posting, lots of comments but am I correct in saying at the current moment (11/21/19) in time lights it will not work with dolby vision? My setup would be Apple TV via Yamaha receiver with 5.1.2 atmos. Seems the majority of what is on Apple TV/Netflix is Dolby vision. Does anyone know if adding Dolby vision would even be possible via future firmware update? Or would it have to be a newer version of device? No Dolby vision is currently a deal breaker for me...

So if you outline the outside of your TV with hue light strips how does that work? It looks like you only have a top view of your setup. Like how do you assign vertically, it only looks like you can setup horizontally.

you can assign horizontal and vertical on the app but if you use a lightstrip around the entire tv, it can only be one color at a time.

Regarding not being able to light up Smart TV apps, I was wondering, could you run a HDMI cable from the TV *out*, into the Philips Hue Sync Box and not bother with the output of the Sync Box? Does that work?

Leo Fajardo yes. I recommend hide 3 play bars OR 1 light strip on top and 1 play bars on each side. Links in bio
