I my case this solution works fine on a computer, but can be very unstable on Android TV. I've been using it for 3 years on a PC with no major issues, with the open source Prismatik app. I only have one only minor issue, the Prismatik app doesn't wake up from sleep mode. Otherwise it's a great solution with very little CPU usage
Hello my Android TV dosent support this box no lights are up after selecting usb allow and screen capturing ... nothing happens on any referesh how is this to fix..maby
I need help. I have a 60 inches TV and the ambilight box doesn't work. The led strip doesn't connect. I've tried many times and the app android ambilight gets stuck and then stop working. Sometimes , I can enter to the settings , some others not. I don't know what is the problem.
In my case it has been running for a long time on an Nvidia Shield (Android Tv). However, when I updated to the latest version it automatically stopped detecting the LED strip.
Hi I've ordered this exact kit but it came without the led strip reel or power cable any idea where I can order one that will be compatible with this light box
Well it uses a standard normal led strip that u can get from anywhere locally or online ... Regarding the power cable, check the power input required for ur device. It's either a 5v or 12v adapter. Mine was 12v
I have a Samsung TV what is not android based. I searched for Ambilight app in its appstore and of course....found nothing. So this solution is not OK for me, am I right? I have an Android TV box ( X96 max - for another, older TV but I not really use it so I can connect it to my newer LED TV ) What do You think. Is the Android TV box enough to control the lights? ... I think no (the box does not know where are the corners of the TV.)..but maybe :D Do You know something about it? Thank You in Advance.
Hey.. hope ur doing good.. m not sure if it will work on the android tv box. Are u able to download the app on it? This is sumthing u will have to test out. On the other hand, the lights r controlled by the app. U give the right count of LEDs on each side of the tv and the LEDs light up based on what is being output on the screen. So.. in short .. there is a 50-50 chance. But yes, in reply to ur first question... it will not work on ur Samsung tv if not android
@@Junxrulz Thank You for Your fast reply....my brother just bought 1 for his PC monitor but first he will try on a TV box...and let's see...if it works fine I will buy another for myself. Thx.

Bro I ordered this kit for my TCL android tv. I think I've received fried LED strip 😢 Can you confirm if the leds light up if you connect them with just the power and not the dreamcolor box?
@Junaish Backer yes I've only 2 ports. One 2.0 and one is 3.0. I've tried both ports but for some reason only 1 led lights up in green color. That too without even opening the app. When I open the app and allow the usb control prompt it gets stuck. I don't know if the led strip has burnt out or if its the controller. But that 1 led lights up even when the strip is connected directly to the power without the led data controller.
@@omerabbas2001 single light turning on happens sometimes... Once u open the app, it will ask for permission to access... Once u grant that, u need to go to the settings of the app. As shown in the vdo, put in the exact or almost exact number of LEDs on either side of the tv and save.. u shud be able to see led strip light connect prompt on the screen.. it's a pain in the a$$ to set it up... But once it's done... Ur good to go...
@@Junxrulz OMG man its not the strip problem, its android protection from sreencapture, its called DRM, Netflix and other streaming appa use it.... And for the PS4, its because is hdmi source, it will not work with any device connected with hdmi.....
Will the light work with smart tv UA-cam. When is syn start working?

Can you split the USB that connects to the TV so you can control it with a PC?
I have bought the same ambilight but everytime I open app, it only said that led not connected
Same here. Do your LEDs light up?
Amazon prime and Netflix work?
Does it work with hdmis inputs?
Netflix not working in youtube style apps. It works on the menu, do you have it too?
Netflix and Sony has some feature in it that doesn't allow.. someone had mentioned in below comments somewhere ..
Hi! How do you count the LEDs that are in the 3 corners where the tape is folded? Horizontal or vertical? Thanks
You can include it in either horizontal or vertical.. but make sure u don't count it twice. I did it in horizontal.
@@Junxrulz , Thank you.

Same here. Do your leds light up at all?
Bro I ordered this kit for my TCL android tv. I think I've received fried LED strip 😢
Can you confirm if the leds light up if you connect them with just the power and not the dreamcolor box?
No .. it will not light up that way... It has to be connected to the dream color box...
