Looks good thanks for the video. Is there something like this for a 100" projector screen?

@TechYourLife1 11 месяцев назад

You could try, but I would say use an HDMI sync box instead. There is a 100" version that Govee now makes of this lineup though!

@mandarOhNine 10 месяцев назад

It never asked me how I set up.... It's all synced and the lights work but they won't actually do anything based off whats on my screen

@TechYourLife1 10 месяцев назад

I'd redo the setup process. Something weird happened

@KizmetEnigma 3 месяца назад

Are you able to connect to it via the app and run calibration? I was able to connect, but calibration wouldn’t work. I figured out that it needs to be on wifi to calibrate and it lacks an antenna, so it needs to be almost on top of the wireless access point

@G_Weezy 11 месяцев назад

RU-vid Govee calibration screen and the orange boxes are placed evenly throughout the TV. Don’t even need those orange pads sticking to your screen.

@TechYourLife1 11 месяцев назад

I agree, you can do it without the pads sticking to your screen during calibration. It's pretty easy

Hey do you need Wi-Fi for the tv led lights like to set up or to have them on ?

@TechYourLife1 11 месяцев назад

I've had wifi go out before and Bluetooth from your phone still works, but to set up you may need wifi. Just broadcast a signal from your phone

@randomname9758 6 месяцев назад

Is it not too close to the edge? Won't this cause too much light bleed? Mine's coming today so I'll probably set it up tomorrow. Thanks for the video.

@camcooolback4115 Месяц назад

What’s lightbleed ?

@misterwho4633 28 дней назад

Light from the LED being too visible if it's right on the edge. I'd probably fix mine an inch away from the edge.

@jonc1282 4 месяца назад

I plugged in mine and the LEDs lit up and blinked for a second then it does not light up anymore. The power indicator is color red. What is wrong and what can I do to continue installtion?

@baitykris1 11 месяцев назад

Any suggestions for a 50 inch TV? I don't have nor want a bigger screen in my living room, but have been considering backlighting for my existing TV. I really like the way the T2 handles it. Seems better than using a sync box.

@TechYourLife1 11 месяцев назад

Sadly I don't have a good suggestion for that size of TV now. Govee's gone bigger, not smaller in terms of sizes offered. You COULD try it and just do a little bit of wiggling with the strip on a smaller screen. I don't think the 5" would make a difference camera wise but the strip would obviously be a little long. Likely 1-2" per side right? So I think you could navigate that too. No guarantees though ok?

@baitykris1 11 месяцев назад

@AYL thank for the reply. I think I will try that. Seems like I could put a bit of a curve in each strip when mounting. Thanks again for posting the tutorial.

I don't. This sounds like a new Bluetooth issue. Maybe try a tablet or a different phone?

@mj-np9sy 7 месяцев назад

I just got these this app is honestly confusing and I'm no luddite. I have no idea what it's doing, if I turn on movie dream scene whatever where I expect it to match the movie colors it's just random colors doing random things, lots of blinks. Sound mode isn't on. I have no idea what partial vs full does.. They need way more of a guide

It actually says recalibrate in the settings. Icon is a gear

Says settings on top of screen then personal info then account and security then a bunch of other stuff then log out. No recalibrate. So I don’t know if there another setting screen or what.

@camcooolback4115 Месяц назад

What is my TV is so tilted at the bottom that there is no point of putting the strip on the back at the bottom, and I just put it on the bottom of the bottom?? it’s on a bit of an angle??

@TechYourLife1 Месяц назад

Little angles and things aren't a big deal. Just get it as close as you can to the spot where it's expected and it'll work just fine :)

@camcooolback4115 Месяц назад

I’m having issues even getting Wifi credentials into the app to get to the point of dragging the points to the orange blocks

@TechYourLife1 11 месяцев назад

Weird. Never heard of that. Not much I can offer in terms of help. Just the regular: try rebooting and then chat with govee's support

@jamesg8246 7 месяцев назад

I had the same issue. @joshj827 I don't know why, I have 30 some odd devices, some that are on 2.4Ghz and some on 5Ghz, and everything else works fine on those networks. What worked for me was to turn the wifi Hotspot on my cell phone on, enter those credentials to get through calibration. Then once set up I changed the wifi setting in the govee app to use my normal 2.4Ghz wifi network and now it works fine. Just have to make sure Bluetooth is on to connect if you need to make changes.

@JohnSmith-vf3vl 3 месяца назад

The app will not connect. Says no device found why?

@TechYourLife1 2 месяца назад

Try turning on/off bluetooth on your phone. Reboot the app. Try again. That works for me and it's sometimes related to your phone holding onto a bluetooth connection to something else

@b787sotelo 9 месяцев назад

I ordered this on Amazon, then I decided to watch a set-up review and I came across yours. I immediately cancelled my order when you said it has to connect to a 2.4 Ghz wifi network. Thats a bummer... I'm looking to add some LED lights behind my TV, but thanks to spectrum I only have a 5 Ghz network.

@TechYourLife1 9 месяцев назад

That's very odd to only get 5 GHz WiFi in this day and age. You'll find almost every smart home product that's not a camera or speaker uses 2.4 GHz WiFi. I would assume that 2.4 GHz WiFi antenna could be turned on on your router

@crapdog30 7 месяцев назад

You have a 2.4 option I promise

@randomname9758 6 месяцев назад

Every modem has a 2.4 GHz signal. It is standard. In fact, you would probably get better coverage then 5 GHz. Five is faster but are affected way more by walls blocking in the way. 2.4 is the actual standard for a lot of the internet of things and every modem will have this.
