hyperion.ng VS LCD-show

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.

You might be able to run an app on your TV, but unless you root it, you will be limited to DRM-free streams. If you have a spare Wyze and HDMI capture card, this is probably the easiest way to grab the video stream. There's no need to run piOS; Hyperion will run fine under Linux, MacOS or Windows using the latest release.

What other ambient light implementations are out there? A cursor look suggest hyperion.ng maybe?

Yeah the github page is a much better starting point.

Creating an ambilight effect requires you to have something that can read the screen to determine what lights to show, so that basically requires decoding and processing a video stream in real time which is beyond the capabilities of most typical MCU's like those used for WLED. There is a project called Hyperion but that requires a full Raspberry Pi and a USB HDMI capture card. There are lots of tutorials for this on YouTube

This is the official repo: https://github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng

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

I looked into the GitHub project and followed their steps as well just in case the other one was outdated, but ran into the same issue. And googling isn’t very help since anything along the lines “raspberry pi 5 lcd screen issue/driver” just returns a bunch of results for 5” screens.

That repo is full of pretty janky scripts, but I'd look at their system_restore script: https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show/blob/master/system_restore.sh

The code changes /boot/config.txt to set the monitor driver and screen size (lines 22-32 in the code).

sudo rm -rf LCD-show git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git chmod -R 755 LCD-show cd LCD-show/ sudo ./LCD35-show

The driver for the display apparently breaks libcamera;

How can I get the WaveShare 3.5 inch TFT display to work on my raspy 4B that is running Manjaro. It works fine using the https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show drivers in Raspbian which is based on Debian, but it doesn't work on Arch-based Manjaro. I tried this attempt at a port but it didn't work for me: https://github.com/Bennett-Wendorf/LCD-show/tree/arch-compatibility-part-2 Any hope on manjaro?

The supplied information here references https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git as the repository to use for the display , this particular one uses "LDC28-show" but the repository works with all sorts of generic displays. after following the instructions and rebooting my screen either remind white or grey.

The library is the next: https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show/blob/master/LCD5-show , at 18 line the I2C is enable, at line 21 the display is rotate, but I don´t see how is send the data through the I2C. That line save the data in file "boot/config.txt", but I don´t found how is used to send data over the I2C port.

Okay. I'll give that a shot in lieu of https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git for #3, but thanks for your help on 1, 2, 4.
