I had one and took a month to get to installing it and was not impressed. Maybe for gaming it it might work better for TV/Movies the refresh rate at which the LED would change color just didn’t seem to keep up. It’s a great idea just needs some improvement. Just my . 02

I spoiled myself this year. New tv Phillips hue sync box The 70inch lights with 4 40 inch extensions. They are awesome I enjoy them immensely. It also syncs with my other hue light bulbs around the room. I do not have it like @maffick but I'm working on it. Mine change color but all the same color at this time. Will work on having it change per zone soon My son set it up. Took minutes. I love them. I plan on adding many more of the lights around the room. Idn about playing call of duty though. You get flash banged and bam you cant see nothing for a while. Sucker really gets ya. I can say I want more. Good luck

@llama mine change with the tv but all the same color. But my son says he can set it up to change as in the video. We have been super busy lately so I haven't seen it yet. So far I love it. If he sets it up to change per sector then even better. But currentlynif the middlensection of my screen is red then they all turn red. If its blue then all turns blue. But my son is fairly good at this so I believe him plus there are videos.

@llama I don't believe the ones I posted will. I think they'll only work with the lights provided.

You have lots of options in the software.
