Hi I bought these led strips and I'm waiting for it to arrive. I'm installing it like you on a 43inch tv. Can you do me a favour pls and tell me how much bumps (or loops) have you done on the sides and on the top? Great content. Keep it up

You will probably have to put the led strips on backwards unless the calibration can be done backwards by crossing the calibration lines. But really, I can't see the camera on top of mine.

Because as you also might have observed: a) Put on a white screen and see the Govee changing colors for no reason... b) Put a still picture and the the colors still change... c) Also it totally fails to detect green. d) One edge is faulty all the time by default... e) Also reactiontime is "ok"... f) Stripes are too long... Too much designflaws even for that price

That's sad to hear. a) and b) could be a calibration issue. And try reducing the sensitivity a bit (from the app) c) I also noticed that it failed to detect green at some times. I'm not sure how to fix it though. d) It happened to me as well due to a faulty connection of an LED. But I pressed it a bit and it got fixed. e) Yes, I agree. f) Definitely agree, and that's a bit of a pain. I puffed the strip to match the length of the TV, but it's not perfect.
