Hue Stream Customer Insights

1. I cannot figure out how to get my Play lights on the side of the TV to extract from the side; even though they are on the sides on the TV on the Entertainment are, their zones are in the top corners of the screen, so they bleed into my play lights on the top of my TV, and don't reflect the colors at the sides, where the lights actually are.Finally, an app that actually captures the screen and forwards it to my lights! I am a huge fan of this app mostly because of other ambient lighting that either never worked fully on shield (lightpack) or got shutdown (dreamscreen).

2. Its annoying when I turn off my shield with my voice and then have to find the remote to turn it on and find the app and turn it off every time i'm done watching.Lights stay on when I turn off the Nvidia shield.

3. i'd rather have wrong color lights than it turn off and on and off and on 2) ability to adjust the sizes of the screen areas.

4. It works great on shield TV and with my Phillips hue lights.

5. Any chance for a future release to incorporate sound effects similar to the Hue Sync desktop app? Also, maybe adjustments to the brightness level for certain color? I find colors like dark blue and deep red to be dim vs.

6. overall a great appWorks great! Would be nice if it could turn itself off when the shield goes to sleep.

7. Otherwise its perfect!Great app for the Shield TV! DRM is the reason why it won't work with Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video etc.

8. Keep up the good work! ;)Great app - thanks a lot! Improvements possible: I'm using it with a shield and an oled TV.

9. couple small asks 1) can you allow lights to not turn off? its annoying during a scene when its basically a disco.

10. Only issue I have is that I wish it would turn itself off when the shield goes to sleep.

11. My lights are unresponsive if Hue Stream isn't turned off before sleeping the shield.
