HyperHDR VS Lightpack

You can DIY your own with a IC-based RGB/RGBW strip and a rPi or x86 PC + ESP microcontroller using software like Hyperion or HyperHDR, combined with WLED.

This page https://github.com/awawa-dev/HyperHDR/wiki/Level-Shifter shows that a level shifter (3v3 to 5v) is needed for your lights.

I spent a lot of time looking into this. Didn't want to lose HRD to implement Hyperion. I found the HyperHDR fork. Which will convert HRD signal to SDR and works really well out of the box. only thing I had to update was to turn the brightness down in the capture settings. Found a HDMI splitter on Amazon that handles CEC pass through. I lost Dolby Vision, because I couldn't find a splitter that will downgrade dolby vision to 1080p for the capture card. But I had to be honest with myself, I can't tell the difference between Dolby Vision and HDR 10+. Now I have an ambient light solution that allows me to keep HDR without dropping big bucks on something like HD Fury. Very Happy, works with HA still too.

Any reason you decided to "reinvent the wheel" instead of using an existing solution like Prismatic or Hyperion?

I'm using something like this: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256801541807301.html (just an Arduino Nano clone with WS2811 LEDs). And with this software.

as far as I know, 2 method of ws2812 responding to a computer is by sound / audio reactive (WLED& prismatik) and ambient color lighting (prismatik). Other ambient color applications also available with relatively similar (more or less) feature to prismatik.

Looks like Lightpack is the operative software in use here.
