June 17, 201610 yr OK, this is really cool. I just bought one of these and I love it. It extends the color on the TV to the wall behind your TV. It's like the old Phillips TV that had this. You also need to buy a Raspberry Pi but I already had one of them. It just really immerses you so much more into a movie . My review is a few posts down https://lightberry.eu
June 17, 201610 yr Sorry, that was my fault... The post was screaming spam from the way it read. I didn't notice your post history in the sidepanel until after it was deleted. I was in the process of recovering it when you reposted it.
June 17, 201610 yr Just wanted to add there are a couple of similar products. I've been using lightpack for a couple of years with great success. http://www.lightpack.tv/
June 17, 201610 yr Author I will post a video and a more in depth review when I get home. Out of town right now. I love it though Bubba, I guess I can understand that, it just freaked me out since my account was also deleted. Glad it's all ok now
June 17, 201610 yr I have a Lightberry kit on my TV as well. Was working great with my Raspberry Pi 2 + OpenELEC install. After moving to the ShieldTV, unfortunately I CANNOT find a HDMI splitter that retains HDMI-CEC functionality. I was also told by Lightberry that such a device does not exist. Now I'm trying to sell it since lack of CEC support renders my ShieldTV useless for WAF (wife acceptance factor). Basically I need to be able to control the ShieldTV with the television remote.

Have you tried using a FLIRC with it? https://flirc.tv/more/flirc-usb ALso a quick search came up with this https://www.reddit.com/r/AmbiVision/comments/3fik7d/hdmi_splitter_and_hdmi_cec/ and this http://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=6259
May 10, 20179 yr Since this got spammed again. I'd recommend this since this offers more inputs and also offers a phone app http://www.dreamscreentv.com/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&gclid=CMrgiPui5NMCFchefgodxusKYw
