[QUOTE="TheBatfink, post: 1111942, member: 52265"] Ahh round faced trunking :) I used that exact same stuff for hiding cables they stock it at B&Q in the UK :) Question. If I'm understanding correctly, using the rPi in addition to the Arduino has two benefits? 1 is the ability to incorporate HDMI capture of sources other than MePo and 2 offload the CPU load to the rPi? So even if you don't want multiple HDMI capture you could still ignore the capture portion and still benefit not having the PC working harder? What if you omit the rPi and just go with Arduino? I'm assuming Atmowin controls the show and the Arduino just drives the LEDs? In this setup, how is the Arduino connected to the host machine.. just USB? I notice on the Uno boards they don't have Ethernet? Thanks :) Awesome guide. [/QUOTE]
