Hi FrankBert, Does the lag increase over time or is it constant and are you using any delay settings from AtmoLight (besides AmbiBox delay)? You can also try setting the change image delay for AmbiBox a bit lower and see if it improves :) Double checked the ambibox code but should work the same as before, it might be a bit quicker...

Problem: Software for ambient light systems do not synchronise well with TV picture at all refresh rates. A delay set for 50hz video will be too early for 24hz. Not sure why but never mind :) Solutions: AtmoLight understands this and calculates a different delay per refresh rate. This mostly works but can be affected by TV settings...

The "Windows 8 is better" part is specific to AtmoWins performance in gathering the screen captures. However with AtmoLight, AtmoWin does not have to do this task, but AtmoLight gets these captures directly from MediaPortal. So there should be no problem.
