That's what I like about your videos Rob.. you have the "voice of reason" on your shoulder telling you this can be done cheaper... and your results speak for themselves.. nice one (low low price of £16k made me LoL)

@TheHookUp 2 года назад

Absolutely, and also the voice of reason for when not to DIY things, like the floor rising screen, which would be a total nightmare and probably dangerous in more than a few ways!

@iampurepersian 2 года назад

I'm using Bluesound soundbar + 2 flexes and a sub woofer. It creates really good immersive sound and is very easy to setup. The speakers talk to each other through a dedicated wifi network so there is no lag there if you decide to not wire everything up. Plus: no account needed for this and it does have an HA integration

Really looking forward to watching the shelf video (not something I ever thought I would say ;). I have kickstarted the NexiGo Aurora Pro and it should be here sometime in Oct. I am planning to build a cabinet/etc like you did here to house my screen(have been eyeing the vividstorm floor raising ones for awhile. The more I see them in action the more I like them!) My PJ, a 'normal' TV and my speakers. The sliding shelf looks like a great way to go! Thanks!

@ramnik.khanna 2 года назад

@Rob, that's a great setup! Thanks for sharing! I too have a similar setup, except that my motorized screen is ceiling mounted and not floor rising like yours; and my 1080p projector is a motorized drop down mount, from a concealed ceiling cutout. I'm debating whether I should upgrade to an expensive 4K, HDR-10 capable projector, or just place four cheaper 55" UHD TVs (bezel less) in a 2 by 2 grid on the wall, akin to a video wall, with a 4-way 4K HDMI splitter. What's your opinion on this, and any suggestions you have? The advantages of this I see are enormous - easier cabling and setup, single remote operation, simple integration with HA etc.

@SjaakSchulteis 2 года назад

It's definitely the project that I've tried the hardest to be inclusive of people without power tools or a 3d printer... So limiting! It's also got a full home assistant version (ESPHome) and ESPAlexa version. I wish someone would build a great JS front end for the ESPHome web portal that could pass in variables. I love making projects with ESPHome, but they just aren't that useful without a home assistant instance.

@DIYtechie 2 года назад

What a nice surprise. A lot of people have a motorised projection screens in front of TV’s, but the hidden short throw projector is a very cool and much more original idea 👍🏻 PS Looking at your setup it seems obvious to add a pair of stereo speakers on either side of the projection screen. There are decent soundbars out there, but you don’t have to be an audiophile to tell the difference between a soundbar and proper stereo or surround HiFi. You just need to make a side by side comparison which most non-audiophiles don’t want to.

@csharpworm7597 2 года назад

Very nice setup. Not only am I looking forward to the projector drawer video, but maybe a DIY floor projector screen. That vivid storm is a little pricey.

@TheHookUp 2 года назад

It is a bit pricey, however, a DIY drawer is pretty easy because it's small, simple and only requires moderate precision. A floor rising screen on the other hand is pretty complicated, requires metal fabrication, and high precision since a screen with wrinkles in it is basically worthless.

@kojak362010 2 года назад

Great video. Awesome setup. You should definitely get the Sonos Arc full system. The thing sounds absolutely incredible. The front soundstage is very wide and the sub shakes the house. It is probably as close as you can get to true surround system from a soundbar. Also it sounds great for music too especially Apple music in atmos from the Apple TV. By the end of November Sonos will be releasing an update to add DTS sound to all Sonos soundbars.

@projectionscreenVividstorm 2 года назад

Thank you for using our screen . Awesome video! Though the contrast ALR screen could be used with a short throw projector, it works better with a long throw one.If you have a short throw projector , we defenitely recommend the optical ALR screen.^.^

@chrisgoeslive1 2 года назад

Sound bars are an easy solution, but for surround sound you need seperately positioned speakers. I bought second hand floor mounted speakers and centre speaker. Also a 300mm sub woofer and rears all driven from a proper av amp. Once you have a proper set up you would nt want a soundbar, except where space is limited.

wow nice setup great work. i have a 100" fixed projector epson eh-tw7300 in white at the ceiling so you almost not notice it (altough you could intergrate it in some lighting box at the ceiling) and a fixed 100" alr screen. I also wanted the ambilight with hyperion started it 4 years ago but never got it to work, it stopped working after 250 leds or so :( i used a raspberry pi and a arduino that was recommended. maybe i try to fix it again because i still have al the parts (hdmi splitter, hdmi to av, led strips and so on). you gave me good inspiration for some things :)

@TheHookUp 2 года назад

Nice. I'm actually doing Hyperion a little differently. I'm running my LEDs with a controller called a digUno running an awesome program called WLED. Hyperion is set up on the raspberry pi and sends data over the network to WLED, this is probably an overkill setup but I like that the DigUno is a fused output, and I already had it setup before I decided to use Hyperion, so it was nice that they play well together.

@joshjudd50 8 месяцев назад

Question - I am wanting to run my PS5 / Roku to my TV and projector with a HT receiver. My receiver is a bit older but does have ARC. It sounds like a would need a 4x4 HDMI splitter as the Roku and PS5 would be inputs and then output to the receiver, TV and projector. Is that correct?

@xxxDaGoblinxxx 2 года назад

Rob does you're hyperion setup handle dolby vision? I haven't seen a way to deal with it other than the hue sync box.

We watch the 65" TV most of the time. When the TV is on but not a "focus" there's no reason to have a 120" screen blasting. We use the projector for movies, big sports events, or cinematic TV shows (Silo on AppleTV was perfect on the projector).

@TheHookUp 2 года назад

Really? The Q90R has rear satellites and a sub. Actually, the performance of it isn't my issue, it sounds pretty good. Most of the problems come from the digital processing in the soundbar itself which introduces enough delay to cause lipsync issues on both the projector and the TV, and make amazon multi room audio unusable.

@LoganGibson 2 года назад

@@TheHookUp Yeah, it will make a difference. Accessories4Less has some good deals on receiver's. I'm not sure of your room layout and if a 5.1 system would do you any better, or a 5.1.2 A few factors in play - plus personal preferences as well.

Hey man, I have watched your projector videos and I have a question for you and I hope you're gonna read it. :-) So... I just ordered myself a Thundeal TD90 projector on Aliexpress after seeing very good reviews about it. It is a 720p native. It should arrive this week. Now, I did some more checking on the sellers page and now I noticed the Thundeal TD96 which is 1080p. I'm thinking off sending the TD90 back unopened and ordering the TD96. What do you think? I will watch it from about 9/10feet away... Now, I don't have a need to spend a couple of thousand dollars on a 8k projector sort of speak but obviously, the quality is still important. Could you maybe take a quick look and tell me what you think. It's only 90€ more so... Thank you in advance!!

@TheHookUp 2 года назад

How far you are away doesn't matter too much, the important part is how large of a screen you are looking to make. Neither of those projectors seem all that special to me, and never having tested them myself I can't say that one would be better than the other. I'm in the middle of testing for a second video for projectors in the $100-300 range, and so far Nexigo has a strong lead: amzn.to/3DTdR36

@nikostevens1 2 года назад

@@TheHookUp I honestly don't know alot about it. It's gonna be my first projector. So as I read on the description page... 9.8feet away will give me a 100inch screen. I can't go any further than that since that is the max distance I can put it. And that is pointed straight at the wall I'm gonna project on. I have big hopes for the Thundeal TD96 (as far as that pricerange goes) because I have watched a video about in it full detail and the person really seemed to know what he's talking about). Reviews are also good but I don't base myself too much on that. I will take a look at your suggestion as well.

Buy Sony HT-A9 for sound system

Not going to lie, had to pause and google when i heard 'ultimate chicken horse' Oh, also for your home theatre, have a look into the SVS prime 5.1 set and a wireless audio path adapter for the rears. Any newish 5.1 receiver would power them, second hand for a few hundred bucks.

downgrade my 100" UST with ALR screen to a 75" tv. no regrets. easier to watch even during the day. and a good balance between big screen and color contrast.

Heads up that a 4k pixel-shifting projector uses a 1080p image, shifted by half a pixel to get the extra resolution. This can mean you only get the full refresh rate at 1080p instead of 4k - though I've got no idea if the same is true for input delay. My source is here, but note that they aren't experts on this, but are interested in how well games play on different display technologies: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iFJsEfWsTd4.html

It's definitely possible that "game mode" gets rid of the pixel shifting to decrease input lag. However, as far as pixel shifting in general it's really common and is seen up through even super high end UST projectors.

1080p is not frame rate, it is resolution = 1920 x 1080 pixels. '1080p' can be any frame rate.

IF I CAN Afford SONOS SURROUND IM PRETTY SURE YOU CAN TOO

@TheHookUp 2 года назад

I did end up getting it, but it's not about being able to afford it, sometimes I just feel like I shouldn't buy something because it's too expensive.

@joejoe6949 2 года назад

On other subjects a got some esp32 flash on espresense Got to work after along day figuring it out. But a day later all three of them keeps disconnecting. I was wondering if the samething has happen to you ? Using my Apple Watch as my ibeacon.

Sony HT-A7000 Soundbar with SW5 wireless subwoofer and RS3S wireless rears Techmoan review: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8RLCW0dDPuU.html and Linus review: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rfPq8gZszdM.html - You could start with the soundbar and add as needed wirelessly.

This is looking like a winner to me. I just did some quick googling and it looks like it is compatible with Alexa Speaker Groups, which is a huge deal for me.

Quick question... These people that take your advice and build their own setup... In the event their curios child gets their finger in there when it is closing and get cut off... What address would be best for you to be served at for the lawsuit against you and your company?

@TheHookUp 2 года назад

A nema 17 stepper has zero chance of cutting off a finger. It will just miss steps when it encounters too much resistance.

Stop. Stop stop stop. Hold the phone. Rob… what are you trying to pull here? And how has no one else commented about this?! New 12v sk6812?!?!? And you just glossed over this??? What?! Since when?? Why no video on these??!? I need them!!

@TheHookUp 2 года назад

Haha, they are still relatively uncommon and none of the big suppliers seem to have them, but they are pretty cool. Like I said, they are only controllable in banks of 3, but not a deal breaker for me.

@berniem5763 2 года назад

Did someone report these to you or did you just happen to find while perusing aliexpress? Lol I would have never seen these if not for this video! Thank you and please keep us posted on stuff like this. This is my first time in the comments section and it’s funny I was looking for the video you mentioned these and first checked the shelf build video. People went nuts over your using SI lol that was like the entire comments section smh. There are more pressing issues people! Like mysterious new LEDs!!

@TheHookUp 2 года назад

@@berniem5763 I specifically went looking for them one day and ended up finding them. They are actually also available in 24V, but only controllable in banks of 6.

Possibly you’ve already addressed DIY speaker kits in past videos? I wouldn’t know. In any case, you seem like the type that may be interested. Check out GR RESEARCH. Danny really knows what he’s doing in that category. You’re audience might like to see a desktop speaker build??
