PrincessClevage 173 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Exciting news as the 4K wifi version of dream screen is soon to be posted, let’s hope they supply an api so it can be linked into actions (for Emby movies perhaps:-) 4K Updates and Exciting New Features We are in the final stages of testing 4K and are excited to start shipping at the end of the month. Great news - 4K supports HDR and HDR10. 4K supports up to 60Hz, 12 bit resolution and 4:4:4 color space. We have also added some exciting new features to the App, like these new Widgets available on Android and iOS. Easily control DreamScreen without opening the App. Thank you for your patience as we finish testing and begin to ship all the 4K units. Any questions? Feel free to message us here on Indiegogo! Best, DreamScreen https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/dreamscreen-hd-4k-smart-tv-backlighting-videogames-gadgets/x/16796796#/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest asrequested Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) And it's going to work through WiFi instead of Bluetooth. The Bluetooth unit is terrible. https://www.dreamscreentv.com/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&gclid=Cj0KCQjwyvXPBRD-ARIsAIeQeoFbcknj34J5ZcJ5hZTStb87jBRI-MzSqT1uMohwRFBs-nCmUr8QcD4aAl9PEALw_wcB This is what DreamScreen, does...

Guest asrequested Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 And here's a video I whipped up of using Theater with DreamScreen. The lens is flaring a bit....so, bright lights! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceboy 2492 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 I use my led lights with a raspberry pi that captures the video in between my avr and the tv. Therefore is independent of any other software and works for all inputs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers 6766 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Possibly something to go with my new 4K TV, when I get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest asrequested Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Yes, I think that may be an issue. I honestly don't use mine very often, but I will buy the upgrade. The Bluetooth is really annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceboy 2492 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 I have mine on permanently. I have a tv mounted on a stand for now. It will go on the wall when we move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessClevage 173 Posted November 5, 2017 Author Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) I honestly don't use mine very often, but I will buy the upgrade. The Bluetooth is really annoying.ideally I would like to activate dreamscreen only when playing movies, like I currently do with my LED bulb when I play a file from “Movies” directory(turns blue and dimms for 5mins then off then back on blue full bright when I press pause and dim for 5mins then off when press play again using Chef’s Mios Vera plugin). Apparently for the new wifi version of dreamscreen they are going to release a rest api. Edited November 5, 2017 by PrincessClevage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrincessClevage 173 Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 Finally happy to report that my Dreamscreen unit has arrived (all be it with a partial DOA Led strip) but in general is working as expected (except for resizing ET to a smaller view each time I turn tv/amp on/off). Dreamscreen support inform me that a device will be made available later this year that will allow Amazon Alexa - Google Assistant - IFTTT - Philips Hue - LIFX - Logitech Harmony Integration, would Emby be interested in such direct integration?(might be out of Embys scope ) Below is some network communication information used by dreamscreen https://1drv.ms/b/s!Aoemdv993MGDgcwv2sRfX8suUyWYgA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Nice! I can't use mine, right now. It's the old 1080. All my LEDs are still attached. I may get the 4k upgrade kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may get the 4k upgrade kit.I rewatched two fav movies so far and the effect is quite impressive. Looks like the newer units have a higher refresh capability even adjusting colours with a helicopter rotor movement at the edge of the screen. Wifi controls through the app work great also from any room with wifi. Edited April 17, 2018 by PrincessClevage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to get a pfsense gateway, built first. I've been waiting to see when they were actually going to release the new 4k units. Every time I looked, they were only available for pre-order.
