I've been configuring my kit as well just some advice bear in mind that the unit needs some tlc in every lighting condition, when watching playing in dark environments make the brightness around 17 to 25 this is so that the light bar can even switch of some parts to even show the blacks in scenes 😎😎😎
I really wanted this product, but after watching multiple reviews I became discouraged. I would see random purples and reds displayed on the backlight when those colors weren't present on screen. None of the previous reviews I saw took the time to dial in accurate settings like you did. This was the best demonstration of what this product can acheive. Great video, glad I found your channel today! P.S. you were also the only person who even attempted to place the camera below the screen. That was another point of concern, I dont like how it looks mounted on top of the tv. But now I know I can conceal the camera below screen and out of sight. Very thoughtful approach all around, you have earned a new fan! 👍
I will say that I understand the concern and some greys get picked up as blue purples as red etc but honestly when you aren’t dead focused on the backgrounds lights it’s hardly noticeable I almost didn’t get them for the same reason but after using them for a couple days now I will say it’s really not that bad but that’s my opinion so do with it what you will. Hoped this helped someone ✌️
Just installed mine today. Was super disappointed. After 3 minutes of your video and the small tweaks, wow! It’s exactly what I was wanting! We ordered two more for our other TVs! Thank you!
THANK YOU!!!! I have made the purchase but waiting until my couch gets here to set up my govee. I wasnt confodent i could do it but i am confident now!
I got to really install and test it today and first thing I found is that red is overused and white and blue underused. Glad I found your video, can't wait to calibrate it right.
Nice! I didn't even know they'd patched in the white balance setting until I saw this video. It's a night and day difference. So much better now. Thanks for the tips.
I have had one of the immersion kits for around 5 months now and as much of a great bit of kit it is it can be a pain in the backside when it comes to calibration 😅 .. after watching your video I have made adjustments and believe I have improved the colour's to match what's on screen to as close as possible 🙂 thanks for your help with this video it makes calibrating clearer and make more sense 😁👍
@@tac6044 you’d think that but it doesn’t.. I currently have it set on the cool side towards the end and that is as close as I can get it , they improve these things now and then with updates including how the white balance works
Thank you for this! I’m Not sure why I never thought to go tweak the settings in my tv instead of putting all the weight on my T1. I have never even seen this mentioned in the Govee app either. So glad I stumbled across your video!
I bought this set up based off your reviews and videos and got to say love the new immersion kit I had the old one but this is definitely a big upgrade!!! Thanks for all your videos great info
Just bought the G1 and glide wall... Researching as much as possible before Christmas day cos more Govee is coming... I'll be saving this vid as well for when that time comes... Feeling more excited than the kids 🤣😂
Thank you. Just bought and set up and was a little upset at all the reds, and the lack of accuracy. After following your tips I was able to find the ideal settings.
Old comment. But for anyone else with same question (including me) the app no longer has the option presented in this way. Instead in the video section. You have a "game" and "movie" setting. I believe game is "dynamic" and movie is "calm*
Any idea what the new "relative brightness" setting is and how it defers from the regular brightness setting? and what do you think is a good number for it to be around?
I couldn’t agree more! Sometimes following an update the Settings will be thrown off, and I will have to dial them back in. It sure would make the process a lot easier.
I tried putting the camera on the bottom of my 75 inch tv and not matter how close or how far I can’t get the colors to calibrate correctly. I mean color are correct but the some area on the strip go dark during the color test on the screen
I am having a really hard time with calibration. I have a 10 yr old LG LCD if it makes a difference. I have calibrated over and over but cant get my settings like yours
thank you so much had my govee immersion just over a year and never had it true to colour after watching your video and following your app settings and tv settings ive got it looking the best ive had it thankyou so much 😁
Hi .I have RGBiC WiFi+ Bluetooth coated led strip model H619C (10M) Eu, since I am in Europe .My question is, is it the best option to sync that strip with TV strip to buy DreamView T1 Pro TV Backlight H605B model and instead of bars,plug in strip in that USB slot ? Or I can use bars and strip and get uniform colour on all three lights ? Or just the H6199 immersion TV strip with RGBic coated strip without bars ? Like the work btw,and subed ofc...
What is behind your TV? is that a panel of some sort? It def seems like it helps to shine the backlight even more. I was trying to find a reflective paint or coating to put behind my tv to help the backlighting but everyone just said paint it white and that'll help reflect the lights.
hello, thank you very much for your help, I am collecting information to set up my room. Could you explain why two cameras? Does performance improve? your option? or is it for other devices?
Quick question how did you make your Govee light bars white like it’s body because Govee sells it only in the black body color let me know how you did it or a video would be much appreciated thank you!!! :)
My problem is inside the dreamview , can i calibrate it ? Colours are extremely saturated (i have t2 ,neon rope and two lyra floor lamp) , but i dont have issue when using the t2 alone bc i have already picked the right saturation
My TV's older and plasma. Does Govee still work with that technology? Finding the colors to be pretty off even with adjustment. I thought maybe the camera was mounted too low, but it is not accurate to what the TV is showing at all.
How do I force the app to update to get the white balance settings to come up I have model number H6199... I have two sets of these lights one on living room the other on bed room TV.... The bed room TV doesn't have the newer settings but the living room does???
I’m hoping this comment reaches you for help. I don’t understand how you can get the colors to split in the back? If I have two colors on my screen, it seems to just stick with one and it’s not splitting the colors like yours does. Like if one side on my tv is blue and the other side is yellow. It picks one color and it’s not splitting. Any help would be great. I’ve changed all my settings like your video recommended. I’ve also re-calberated the screen with the orange sponges. I’m lost and could use your advice. Thanks you
I think im going to try recalibrating mine… in some corners its def off. I have a LG C1 TV and the bezel/ trim is super thin and feel like the image doesn’t start exactly at it if that makes sense. When using the orange squares to calibrate did you literally put it right at the corners or cheat in a little? When watching TV selecting ALL instead of PART seems like the only option for it to look decent but want to use the part option. Also, im guessing this doesn’t work the best when watching sports? Thanks for any feedback!
Could you do an updated version? The app is different Just got Govee's AI synch box and I wanted to use your video, but some settings are different now 🤔
Is ir really necessary for the 2 light bars to really be an entire 20inches away from the tv on each side?cause that's what govee recommends but for the average person they don't have a dresser or a stand that long. Would that have to be like a 90inch wide dresser or stand?
Curious where you have the camera mounted with this new setup? I checked out the kit from the link in the description but it still shows that it uses the camera that would normally be mounted to the top or the bottom of the TV but, in your video I don't see the camera mounted anywhere.
liked and subscribed bro , great video it helped me allot but I had the T1 for a while and upgraded to the T2 but for some reason my left side is less bright than my right ? Have any suggestions Mr Tek??
I'm looking through my instructions about the fisheye camera,,,looks to be a protective tape over the eye when I took it out of the box...do I remove it?? Doesn't say in the manual, I believe so ..just being sure
Hey buddy, I know this isn’t in this video but I was wondering what you use for under sideboard/tv stand lights? Is it the rope, bars, or just leds? Thanks for the help

Why wouldn't you put your white balance setting dead center? Wouldnt that be the most accurate?

Man, you just increased the accuracy of my Govee so much. It looks way better now it’s not showing colors that it’s not supposed to or anything.
The background on the wall makes this 10x cooler than it already is

Thanks so much for this video. I just received my Govee color bars yesterday. I was disappointed with the immersion. Then I found your video. Viola!
I just applied you guidance to my setup. What a huge improvement! Thankyou!

Hopefully it will be a slick set-up. Will def take your advice on board
That wall does enhance those lights experience❣️🤯
Long time no see 😁
The settings changes made a big difference thanks
Excellent explanation I would never have thought to adjust the tvs settings it's helped me a lot thanks
Thank you for your suggestions! I've implemented them with my light strip. Everything looks great, so far.
Another way to tune it is 85% saturation and 36% brightness. Not as accurate but looks amazing
Thank you. Just bought and set up and was a little upset at all the reds, and the lack of accuracy. After following your tips I was able to find the ideal settings.
Awesome
Nice! How did you get the calm and dynamic setting?
Old comment. But for anyone else with same question (including me) the app no longer has the option presented in this way. Instead in the video section. You have a "game" and "movie" setting. I believe game is "dynamic" and movie is "calm*
Your vid helped me so much. I always had so much red in the background. The white balance info helped a lot. U da man!!!
This was SUPER helpful. I just picked this up for my 55 inch tv for movies and 43 inch for gaming. Thanks man!
I've heard many people who bought the 55-inch kit putting the camera below the TV instead of on top. Where did you put your camera?
@@peterlozano6503 I liked mine on the top. It's more stable to me.
Any idea what the new "relative brightness" setting is and how it defers from the regular brightness setting? and what do you think is a good number for it to be around?
Thank you, your tutorials help me a lot setting this up and your settings advice are spot on!
Thank you for all your vids. These changes definitely helped smooth out the kinks.
How did you get your yellows to look so good. Mine come across as having a slight green tint
Thanks!
I was about to not buy this but I watched this video wow so perfect how u programmes it
Salut super vidéo
Pour quand réglable T3 lite svp
They really should add a percentage or an indicator on the saturation and white balance bars.
it would be easier to tweak.
I couldn’t agree more! Sometimes following an update the Settings will be thrown off, and I will have to dial them back in. It sure would make the process a lot easier.
Got the "old" immersion kit without the two bars and I would be happy to have that white balance option... No update available
The app updated for my setup and now it has what y'all wanted. Neat.
You got a subscribe from this video. You just made my immersion experience that much better. Thank you!!!!
I tried putting the camera on the bottom of my 75 inch tv and not matter how close or how far I can’t get the colors to calibrate correctly. I mean color are correct but the some area on the strip go dark during the color test on the screen

Thank you so much! I was toying with the settings to get the best results and if it wasn't for your video I'd still be lost in the app, moving sliders
My app doesn't have a dynamic/calm setting? Can't find it anywhere in my app
Amazing video! Thank you so much this made set up so satisfying!
Honestly really helpful as Govee products are new to me. I’ll be playing with sitting tonight. 👍🏼

They do have them optimized for monitors 👍
