i have them on my 65 livingRoom but in My Room bcz I sit too close I feel the cámara would be in the way and I won’t notice the lights bcz I sit too close to my 55inch
Nice idea. I probably won't use the exact same method as you, but the idea of laying the camera down infront of the TV and then camouflaging it is definitely inspiring.
Thanks for the idea! As I have a walnut top to my tv stand, I ended up using a wooden watch box for mine. As they are used to display collections, they have a glass lid on them. So this allowed me to eliminate the monitor riser so it is now just a wooden box centered on my stand. The boxes are ~$10 more than the catch-all, but in total it is about $5 cheaper since you aren't bying the $15 riser. I will admit I was a bit unsure about the glass on the top of the watch case causing issues for the cameras, but so far there has been no issues. Thanks again!
@@MrTekSuggest It may be a bit. It is currently torn up as I am trying to blend your hack of the IKEA Vidja floor lamp with Govee light strips to see if I can get everything to work together.
That is incredible. Your whole setup is 10/10! Unfortunately, this trick won't work for me, because I have a moving wall mount, but this is such a great way to do it! I bet the color accuracy improves too, as it's obvious that with the standard setup, the camera is not able to see the screen all that well. There's only so much they can do with calibration too. Bravo!
I think this video will really help us, we have a Curved Samsung wall-mounted and the edges of the tv are so thin, we have had trouble getting the camera to stay mounted at all. I cannot wait to try something like this with our camera. I am mostly happy to know that the camera is not required to be touching the TV also. Just being able to attach to anything else may help us. Thanks!
This is fame changing!!! I just finally got my immersion Also because of the distance i think the camera will pickup the tv better And just got the perfect box for it
Brilliant!!!! My Govee kit looks so much better now and without the camera in sight. The colors are more accurate and reaction time has improved. Govee really should learn from your idea and give the option and provide a table top mount.
Thank you. I did I contacted them. I had it on the wall when it was popping. So maybe it’s to close to the wall. I think it was before. Hmmm I will see what I can do
This fantastic. I’m still deciding between a camera set up (with risk of ambient light messing things up) or a neo style HDMI box (then I’d need an HDMI switch and have to worry about hz support, better color but more hassle). This video helped me be more comfortable with having a camera and ways to hide it. Are you using to cameras because your TV is larger than the supported models?
Check out my latest review on the surround lighting feature. Two cameras are no longer necessary for the new model which bridges the light strip and the bars. ruclips.net/video/Vlpy5kPeg1g/видео.html
You plan on making a video on putting govee immersion on larger then 65 inch tvs? I've found that bottom mounting is my only option. Just like to see how you tackled this situation. Good vid work out great on the TV in the bedroom 👍
Very nice video I wish they made the camera into something shaped like a small hockey puck. I think that's a lot less intrusive and can hide behind a soundbar
Theres another kit that uses a camera too. Its called Ambivision. The camera is kind of hexagonal shaped and connects to its control box via wifi. It can be placed anywhere in the room. It costs twice as much as the Govee Immersion though
Great idea and thanks for sharing. Why 2 cameras? When will Govee allow to sync multiple lights to one camera? Maybe? Would be nice to have an entire room of ambient lights synced to a single tv camera 👍👍
@@kev4iik The reason he has TWO cameras is 1 is for the surround lighting, the other is for the light bars on the side, this will work just the same with 1 camera
@@h9rae exactly what i Said! But you have to use 2 sets ( Bars and Stripe ) when u have an 75-85 TV. Govee has an set with 1 cam and Bars + Stripes but only 55-65. So i had to buy one 75 immersion and a bars set ( 2 sets 2 cams )
SERIOUSLY smart!!! I have kids so having a tray full of pebbles won’t work, BUT you’ve still inspired some really creative ideas for me to do a similar setup! My new LG C1 TV is quite frankly too thin to mount the camera on the top as my previous TV and mounting it on the bottom would mean covering up the little control knob/joystick thingy. So this is genius! Thank you! :D
Glad that it helped! That’s funny, I voiced the very same pebble/stone concern in this video for my living room set up: ruclips.net/video/OlP_-v58v6c/видео.html
I'm pretty new to this, and the camera is the main reason why I don't have the govee, but why do you have cameras??? Is it because you want to make sure to capture the movements on screen? Does it have another use for it?
Great video - Thanks again, you helped me make the decision to get these over the Philips or Mi products. Not only great videos, but you could be an interior designer too!
Just got a Govee T1 Kit and love it but wanting to hide the cables and camera, I saw you mentioned getting a usb extension for the camera but could the same also be done for the led strips cable? I think it's USB C from memory. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing this superb hack. After taking delivery of a brand new 65"LG QNED TV I wanted to try and do something so that the camera would not be mounted on to the TV, I pretty much followed your setup, only thing that is different is that I managed to buy a black monitor riser with a built in tray which is perfect for placing the camera. Only thing that seems to be an issue is that with the camera being so low it actually sees the LEDs of the govee strip and the bottom bottom centre has a tendency not to react to the TV as it locks on to the initial colour of the strip, will have to investigate a way of somehow stopping the canera from seeing these LED's, I think in your setup buddy the soundbar blacks the LED's so you probably did not experience the same issue?
Love the setup and it is exactly what I'm trying to do. Why do you have 2 DreamView cameras? Can you not use one camera to link the light bars and the light strip? I essentially want to get the light strip that would fit my 85" TV and then the light bars as well.
He man, at the time of this video, two cameras were required to run the light strip and bars. No longer needed with the H605B combo model. But it sounds like you will need the h6199 for 75-85 TV For your set up
A solid concealment technique. Im sticking with my standmount method. I can see putting stones on the camera. I'd be way too afraid of wear and tear. But it's so great to see another creator thinking outside of the box, to better the govee experience! Good job man.
Right on, Q! Thanks for checking it out. You could chuck the stones altogether as well, for sure. As the cam does fade into the black rubber mat pretty well on its own. I tried to distribute the stones as evenly as possible to minimize the weight, but the test of time will tell!
Hi, thank you for the video was most helpful and will be trying this set up. Could I ask a couple of questions? 1. Where did you place the connection box on your setup 2. Did you require an additional lead for the camera or was the length of cable enough to do this Many thanks
Yo thanks for this! Using this hack on my 85" tv should make a cleaner setup and will allow the cameras more distance from the TV to fully capture all corners.
Hello sir, question for you. I followed your set up however. The bottom middle led doesn’t follow the others in movie mode. It stays a solid color. How did you set up the calibration for the bottom middle?
Hey man have you seen my original review yet? ruclips.net/video/HgUM8DjP2uo/видео.html when you calibrate did you make sure that the camera is able to capture all squares at the bottom of the screen?
Te agradezco mucho tu ayuda, tengo una televisor oled y no sabía como instalar la cámara, se me despegaba tanto arriba como abajo del TV. La solución era tan simple como ubicar la cámara sobre el mueble 😅. Agradecido también por los subtitulos del video.
Great video thank you. I have a question. I am wanting to do this with my 85” TV, why do you have two camera setup, would one camera won’t be able to handle a large TV, should I buy two immersion kits? Please advise. Thank you.
Hey man, there’s no longer a need for two cameras. The 75-85 inch DreamView T1 H6199 should work for your set up just fine. Do note that currently the larger size strip does not come with bars. I am currently using the H605B 65 inch model which does come with a strips and bars combo (single camera) definitely take a look at my playlist which I’ve pinned in the comments
Ah never mind I just seen your other video! I also have the govee bars but didn't realise they did a version with the immersion camera! Damn shouldn't got those instead 😕
- I noticed you have your TV tilted down. Is that necessary for this to work? - Did you find any problems with the LED lights themselves interfering with the image that the camera captures? Thanks! :)
Hey man, my TV is 65 inches. And I am running a single immersion light strips behind the TV as well as bars mounted below. More details here ruclips.net/video/QYmEPCA2vgQ/видео.html
I don't know if you explained it in your video but why two cameras because I bought one set for my 75' TV. Do I need a 2nd camera set w lights or am I fine with one?
I have a 27 gaming monitor and I want to light it up a little to change my experience but it's almost impossible to find one for 27-inch monitor. Please, is there a way I can bend it to fit my monitor? Thank you. Helpful video too
Hey man definitely check out this video here There's Never Been an HDMI Sync Box Like This: New Govee AI Gaming/Streaming Sync Box Kit ruclips.net/video/LoT31LGER2Y/видео.html
Watching your videos has really impressed me with govee. But I am curious about the immersion. Is there a way on the govee app to sync multiple govee lights to create a full room immersion?
You know, that right there what you’re describing, is something that I’ve been pushing for to take the company to the next level. Because as it stands now the strips in the bars are the only supported products. But I definitely won’t be letting up because the potential and the desire is definitely there.
Clean Video! I am rly interessted in how you managed to fit two LED kits on the TV!! I have a projector, which projects on a 80 inch screen, and it would be so nice to be able to use this kit on it!
Thanks man! I’m actually only using a single Immersion light strip behind the TV. The second camera is running my lfow pro bars. You can find more details here ruclips.net/video/QYmEPCA2vgQ/видео.html
Amazing video bro, been wanting to get this but the camera bothered me. Can I ask did you just buy two kits and get them up on the TV? Or are both cameras attached to the same kit??
I have a question... I just bought an 85" Samsung television... I also bought the Govee Immersion kit for the 75" to 85" and I have a wall mount that is only 1/2' off the wall (so clearly I want the light kit closer to the edges). Doing the math, I think I am going to have to be about 7" in from each side if the corners were to touch. I am wondering if I could add two 2.5" splices (just cut each strip into three at the connectors and solder in 2.5" extensions... This should fix the dark corners. Any thoughts about soldering RGBIC? I wouldn't be adding any more chips, so theoretically it should still work? Thoughts?
Awesome video! I'm going to try this and hopefully it will work on my 75 in mounted TV. Currently the cameras are at the top and bottom and don't see the entire TV and it looks off. Hopefully this hack will fix that issue.
What a great vid!! Because you are using this with a 75 in TV, you've given me the confidence to pull the trigger on the Goovee for the C1 I'm getting delivered next week.
@@gib8891 So...Tv came in, set up on a full motion wall mount. It's truly a center piece of my space but, I did not put the light bars on the TV as an email reply from Govee stated "A new immersion light for 75''-85'' TVs wiill be released in Dec. this year." so I'm waiting for that.
Question I noticed you have two cameras. I just ordered the Govee Immersion kit for a 75" tv. I was just curious does it come with two cameras, or do I need to order a separate camera?
Great solution! I’m waiting on mine to be delivered after buying they on prime day. I had some concerns about the camera but being I have a 75” I thought it would be out of the way. I’ll know soon hopefully today is the day!
@@MrTekSuggest the setup is nice! The camera is out of the way for me on top of the tv. I am not able to get a 1:1 replication of the colors, but that is ok it is close enough. I watched a ton of videos and found, according to one video, that the color accuracy had to do with the ISO on the camera but was easily fixed with a cell phone ND filter. I have yet to try that, but I am happy with this product, especially for the price. It adds so much more to the experience of watching or playing.
Surprisingly well actually!. Some brightness is sacrificed obviously, but it looks really good in a low lit room. I am eventually going to put a short video together showcasing, as I have gotten a number of request.
@@MrTekSuggest I would be rly interessted in this too. I have a projector, which projects on a 80 inch screen, and it would be so nice to be able to use the LEDs on it!
You have an awesome setup! I wish I could do the same. I love the creativity and the DIY. Great job! I'm brand new to Govee products and just installed the Immersion RGBIC LED TV Backlight on my TV. After I was done installing it, the two ends of the light strip ended up overlapping. Would cutting a little bit off the end, so it doesn't overlap, affect the functionality of the strip?
Hey man, when using this tabletop method, no. Because you control how wide an angle the camera has with the placement of the tray. I actually use a standard camera with my 75”
Is there a maximum amount of distance that the TV can be away from the cameras? I ask because my tv is probably 10 inches from my tv stand and I don’t want to go out and buy this lighting equipment if that’s too far
Heyas just letting you know my project idea is almost completed. I have managed to utilise items already in my house in order to complete the same project (albeit with just one camera ) with a total cost of £20- just $26 USD. I have changed a few items swapping white for black -changing felt trays etc.So from 76.50 USD to just $26 USD for the same thing and save a massive $50 to boot.
Great video but I’ve run into one problem. I believe the extender cable is causing the camera to lose connect and sometimes not connect at all. I’ve tried multiple cables and same issue. When I connect the camera directly to the hub behind the TV it connects with no problems. Have you had any issues maintaining the connection to the camera using the extender cable? Thanks
@@MrTekSuggest Hey, yes I bought the exact one and it won’t hold a connection. Very weird. I bought a cable that claims to be a booster and it seems to be better. Im going to try one more but if not Im just going to have to connect the cam directly.
@@MrTekSuggest I found a way to solve my problem. Instead of extending the usb camera cable I extended the usb type c connection on the hub. That seems to work with no issues. So instead of mounting the hub behind the tv I now have the hub in my tv stand. This allows me to connect the camera directly. I only had to run one usb type c extender cable from the light strip behind the TV to the hub in my tv stand. Everything is working fine. Also, this my be a good solution for those without an outlet behind their tv. Less cables to run.
I had a question for you. Does Govee use a basic camera at 1080p for their immersion lights? Is it basically like a web cam? The only reason I ask is because I wonder if you can by a different camera at 4K and get a better result. Your thoughts thank Mr T
Hey man, the Govee cam definitely has more data passing through it than your average WebCam. I’ve spoken to quite a few folks over the past few months who have tried using third-party cameras without any luck unfortunately
How did you get your colours so spot on? Do you reconfigure before use? Mine rarely dim down like I think they should and greens and yellows are hard to come by. Have you any calibration videos?
Agree yellows and oranges are the least prevalent colors that I would love to see surface more. I have my brightness set to 70%, and I use movie mode as well as saturation about 15%. What kind of TV panel do you have? I noticed a slight improvement with OLED. Also if you can get away with it, try tilting your TV slightly downward if your cameras mounted on the bottom
@@MrTekSuggest it's a 65" OLED the odd thing is sometimes I get great results with whites and darkening down when in dark spaces, but the rest of the time it will opt for blue, it's slightly tilted, when I used the screen test to try and calibrate it, the camera can't see the bottom square, so I think it may be the better option to move the camera down some more.
I asked Govee if the T2 can be placed under the tv as you did with this T1 and they said no it only works if the camera in on top of the tv. Wonder why, you got the T1 working fibe and so why the T2 would not work.
hi, has anyone tried the concealing method using the new T2 govee camera, the camera that has 2 lenses? just wondering how good is that at picking up the tv screen when its not mounted on top? thanks

- I noticed you have your TV tilted down. Is that necessary for this to work?
- Did you find any problems with the LED lights themselves interfering with the image that the camera captures?
Thanks! :)
I actually just pinned a comment that will help :)
Hi man, I’m Brazilian and would like to know about this system. Do you use two SYS Govee. Why ? Would be your TV size?
Hey man, my TV is 65 inches. And I am running a single immersion light strips behind the TV as well as bars mounted below. More details here ruclips.net/video/QYmEPCA2vgQ/видео.html
I don't know if you explained it in your video but why two cameras because I bought one set for my 75' TV. Do I need a 2nd camera set w lights or am I fine with one?
Would it be nice if i buy 75” kit for 65” TV to cover the corners ? Is it a good idea ?
I have a 27 gaming monitor and I want to light it up a little to change my experience but it's almost impossible to find one for 27-inch monitor. Please, is there a way I can bend it to fit my monitor? Thank you. Helpful video too
Hey man definitely check out this video here There's Never Been an HDMI Sync Box Like This: New Govee AI Gaming/Streaming Sync Box Kit

Hi. How are you using 2 cameras with the TV kit? Does it make a difference? Thanks!
I actually just pinned a comment that will help :)
Thank you so much for this video as it helped me create my tray for my govee camera! 📷
Watching your videos has really impressed me with govee. But I am curious about the immersion. Is there a way on the govee app to sync multiple govee lights to create a full room immersion?
You know, that right there what you’re describing, is something that I’ve been pushing for to take the company to the next level. Because as it stands now the strips in the bars are the only supported products. But I definitely won’t be letting up because the potential and the desire is definitely there.
They have an update coming in November to support immersion connection to other devices
@@JasonKaczor is there a link for details?
YES ITS CALLED HIGHLIGHT MODE YOU CAN SYNC UP TO 5 GOVEE PRODUCTS TO THE IMMERSION KIT ITS SOOO SWEET!!!🤩🤩🤩
Clean Video! I am rly interessted in how you managed to fit two LED kits on the TV!! I have a projector, which projects on a 80 inch screen, and it would be so nice to be able to use this kit on it!
Thanks man! I’m actually only using a single Immersion light strip behind the TV. The second camera is running my lfow pro bars. You can find more details here ruclips.net/video/QYmEPCA2vgQ/видео.html
Amazing video bro, been wanting to get this but the camera bothered me. Can I ask did you just buy two kits and get them up on the TV? Or are both cameras attached to the same kit??
I actually just pinned a comment that will help :)
@@MrTekSuggest thank you for that!!!
How high/low *in your case* you can put/hide the cam 🤔 I am asking because the cam should've a full view of the screen for calibration.
Yes I'd like to know the same thing OP
What's the box that's in front of it with the hdmi cord going to. Is that apart of the camera setup?
You think I'd be able to place the camera in the ceiling? Would the distance work?
Are the 3d wall panels "Art3d 3D" panels? If so white or silver?
Ok, this was dope! Very nice concealment technique.
Thanks man!
Is it possible to sahre a link for your wall deco ? Great solution btw i wll give it a try
Sure thing. I made a tutorial with links in description: ruclips.net/video/BHUi9tumTeQ/видео.html
@@MrTekSuggest thank you so much mate !
I have a question... I just bought an 85" Samsung television... I also bought the Govee Immersion kit for the 75" to 85" and I have a wall mount that is only 1/2' off the wall (so clearly I want the light kit closer to the edges). Doing the math, I think I am going to have to be about 7" in from each side if the corners were to touch. I am wondering if I could add two 2.5" splices (just cut each strip into three at the connectors and solder in 2.5" extensions... This should fix the dark corners. Any thoughts about soldering RGBIC? I wouldn't be adding any more chips, so theoretically it should still work? Thoughts?
Awesome video! I'm going to try this and hopefully it will work on my 75 in mounted TV. Currently the cameras are at the top and bottom and don't see the entire TV and it looks off. Hopefully this hack will fix that issue.
I definitely think that moving the camera further back with this hack will give you a wider view of your larger screen. Let me know how it goes!
Is the 2 camera a new govee system ? Or did you add it on?
With the new model you can run the strips and the bars with a single camera ruclips.net/video/mY_YC-TtNq8/видео.html
Thanks man, great advice 👍
What a great vid!! Because you are using this with a 75 in TV, you've given me the confidence to pull the trigger on the Goovee for the C1 I'm getting delivered next week.
Awesome man. I’m glad that you found it helpful!
Keep us updated bro
@@gib8891 So...Tv came in, set up on a full motion wall mount. It's truly a center piece of my space but, I did not put the light bars on the TV as an email reply from Govee stated "A new immersion light for 75''-85'' TVs wiill be released in Dec. this year." so I'm waiting for that.
Govee*
Question I noticed you have two cameras. I just ordered the Govee Immersion kit for a 75" tv. I was just curious does it come with two cameras, or do I need to order a separate camera?
Why are you using two cameras in the setup? Does the immersion come with two cameras?
Why do you have two cameras? Does it help interperat the colors better? Or one of them controls the light strip and the other controls the bars?
Thank you! Very awesome setup!
how far are the cameras from the TV? width and from the TC?
My camera Trey is about 8 inches away from the TV
Great solution! I’m waiting on mine to be delivered after buying they on prime day. I had some concerns about the camera but being I have a 75” I thought it would be out of the way. I’ll know soon hopefully today is the day!
How did the set up go?
@@MrTekSuggest the setup is nice! The camera is out of the way for me on top of the tv. I am not able to get a 1:1 replication of the colors, but that is ok it is close enough. I watched a ton of videos and found, according to one video, that the color accuracy had to do with the ISO on the camera but was easily fixed with a cell phone ND filter. I have yet to try that, but I am happy with this product, especially for the price. It adds so much more to the experience of watching or playing.
Hey, does anyone know what the white 3d wallpaper is called behind the TV?it looks really cool but I don't know where to find it. Thanks
75 inch? How did that work out for you? owning 2 77 inch c1's I have been hesitant on purchasing this kit for my tvs great video 👍
Surprisingly well actually!. Some brightness is sacrificed obviously, but it looks really good in a low lit room. I am eventually going to put a short video together showcasing, as I have gotten a number of request.
@@MrTekSuggest I would be rly interessted in this too. I have a projector, which projects on a 80 inch screen, and it would be so nice to be able to use the LEDs on it!
Does using the USB extension cause any issues? Can you use a USB c extension for the LEDs and the light bars?
You have an awesome setup! I wish I could do the same. I love the creativity and the DIY. Great job!
I'm brand new to Govee products and just installed the Immersion RGBIC LED TV Backlight on my TV.
After I was done installing it, the two ends of the light strip ended up overlapping. Would cutting a little bit off the end, so it doesn't overlap, affect the functionality of the strip?
Hey man, cutting the light strip could cause some functionality issues. What size is your TV?
I noticed you have two cameras. In your experience, does having two cameras work better than one camera with bigger tvs? I have a 77"
Hey man, when using this tabletop method, no. Because you control how wide an angle the camera has with the placement of the tray. I actually use a standard camera with my 75”
Is there a maximum amount of distance that the TV can be away from the cameras? I ask because my tv is probably 10 inches from my tv stand and I don’t want to go out and buy this lighting equipment if that’s too far
Hey, how are they holding up now. Also i am thinking of doing this with the T2 but on a tv with the stand intop of a chest of drawers
Can you configure the camera setting it up from the side or the corner of the screen?
Which screen saver was that? Wallpaper Engine? Definitely going to try this hack! Thank you!
Timestamp?
@@MrTekSuggest 1:57 sorry I definitely should have included that
Excellent video! Can you explain why 2 cameras?
I actually just pinned a comment that will help :)
@@MrTekSuggest thanks 🔥
Can you add more light bars and the govee light bulbs to this set up?
What are you settings in the app? I’m not satisfied with the ones I have currently.
Heyas just letting you know my project idea is almost completed. I have managed to utilise items already in my house in order to complete the same project (albeit with just one camera ) with a total cost of £20- just $26 USD. I have changed a few items swapping white for black -changing felt trays etc.So from 76.50 USD to just $26 USD for the same thing and save a massive $50 to boot.
Great video but I’ve run into one problem. I believe the extender cable is causing the camera to lose connect and sometimes not connect at all. I’ve tried multiple cables and same issue. When I connect the camera directly to the hub behind the TV it connects with no problems. Have you had any issues maintaining the connection to the camera using the extender cable? Thanks
Hey man, are you using the Sabrent usb 3.0 extension cable provided in the link?
@@MrTekSuggest Hey, yes I bought the exact one and it won’t hold a connection. Very weird. I bought a cable that claims to be a booster and it seems to be better. Im going to try one more but if not Im just going to have to connect the cam directly.
@@MrTekSuggest I found a way to solve my problem. Instead of extending the usb camera cable I extended the usb type c connection on the hub. That seems to work with no issues. So instead of mounting the hub behind the tv I now have the hub in my tv stand. This allows me to connect the camera directly. I only had to run one usb type c extender cable from the light strip behind the TV to the hub in my tv stand. Everything is working fine. Also, this my be a good solution for those without an outlet behind their tv. Less cables to run.
@@THeKiNGdomPRo thanks will be trying this out. so basically only extend the USB-C for the LED tv lights. and move hub and camera to tv stand area.
@@omhl exactly!
I had a question for you. Does Govee use a basic camera at 1080p for their immersion lights? Is it basically like a web cam? The only reason I ask is because I wonder if you can by a different camera at 4K and get a better result. Your thoughts thank Mr T
Hey man, the Govee cam definitely has more data passing through it than your average WebCam. I’ve spoken to quite a few folks over the past few months who have tried using third-party cameras without any luck unfortunately
Pretty dope. You have a hack for TV's on consoles. Thought on putting the camera on top of the soundbar
Send me a photo of your set up on my IG @MrTekSuggest so I can get a better sense of what you’re working with.
@@MrTekSuggest ok. Just sent it
I shot you a message
How did you get your colours so spot on? Do you reconfigure before use? Mine rarely dim down like I think they should and greens and yellows are hard to come by. Have you any calibration videos?
Agree yellows and oranges are the least prevalent colors that I would love to see surface more. I have my brightness set to 70%, and I use movie mode as well as saturation about 15%. What kind of TV panel do you have? I noticed a slight improvement with OLED. Also if you can get away with it, try tilting your TV slightly downward if your cameras mounted on the bottom
@@MrTekSuggest it's a 65" OLED the odd thing is sometimes I get great results with whites and darkening down when in dark spaces, but the rest of the time it will opt for blue, it's slightly tilted, when I used the screen test to try and calibrate it, the camera can't see the bottom square, so I think it may be the better option to move the camera down some more.
Nice video. Was interested in this kit but wasn't wild about mounting a giant camera to my C1. This is a go.
Do you have to run 2 cameras? Or is 1 camera good enough for multi products?
I actually just pinned a comment that should help :)
MrTek, will you review the Bliss RGB Skylite 2.0❓
Hey man, if I can get my hands on the unit, I’ll be glad to put out one for you guys. Will have to see!
I asked Govee if the T2 can be placed under the tv as you did with this T1 and they said no it only works if the camera in on top of the tv. Wonder why, you got the T1 working fibe and so why the T2 would not work.
hi, has anyone tried the concealing method using the new T2 govee camera, the camera that has 2 lenses? just wondering how good is that at picking up the tv screen when its not mounted on top? thanks
9am!
@@MrTekSuggest hi what do you mean 9am? thanks
