[QUOTE="Rick164, post: 1171014, member: 17766"] You will need to split the signal as most if not all tv's lack an output HDMI port so you can't only use your TV as it needs to sends its screen data to the rPI. Basically live capture only works with an AVR or external device like an console / STB as you capture that output HDMI (split it between TV and rPI) and relay that back to the rPi which is running Hyperion, at the moment you need all the extra hardware because the rPI doesn't have any HDMI input connectors (someone is working on it though). Perfect solution would be capturing the HDMI signal directly (without analog conversion) but one of the main problems with that is HDCP but there's a working concept out there its just hard to do without licensing fees and relatively limited user base, it will come eventually :) [/QUOTE]
