I just finished building my ambient light board from a diagram from amblone but for some reason they dont work UNLESS you check off "Use a fullscreen rather than a true fullscreen". Was wondering if anyone else has issues with there lights if they have any?
Thanks.

From the Ambiclone FAQ:
"The reason why the video colours are not detected is probably because your media player is using hardware acceleration. This technology causes the image to bypass the conventional way graphics are handled, and takes a 'shortcut' to the GPU. For this reason, the screen image cannot be accessed by the Amblone software, and hence the colours cannot be extracted."
Maybe this is part of the problem?
The idea is excellent though, would be a nice wee project to tackle at some point.

do a search for "ambilight" or "boblight" and that should get you where you need to go...
