Hello,

Having issues with the Hue setup for Amblight...I have followed the guides enabled capture and it seems to be working on the home screen of mrmc and the fire TV home screen even. When I go into a movie it just shuts off the Hue lights unless I fast forward then they appear just white until I hit play again. I have tried this with plex integration and SMB direct from my NAS with the same result. I originally set this up on lite had the same issue so I bought mrmc from the Amazon store thinking that would fix it, and same issue. Any ideas?

Hi,

What is your Hue setup, and what is the settings you entered in MrMC?

Those are the settings I have selected in Hue Setup, and under acceleration I have enabled enable capture and allow hardware acceleration -media codec.

My Hue setup in that entertainment group is just the hue light strip.

You cannot have "Hue Lightstrip Plus 1" as "Dimming", "Ambilight", and maybe in your Entertainment group at the same time.
Assuming it's in your Entertainment group (if not, it should) remove it from the others (set it to "Ignore")
