Recently upgraded my WS2812B setup to APA102 as others had nice results with them, this time around with 144 leds p/m as I wanted to try something new and "slightly" over the top which means it now has a total of 600 leds which nearly cover the sides of the tv (rest is for corner cable room)

It's using an rPi2 and Hyperion so no more Arduino in between as these you can just drive directly, will do a showcase in a new topic later.

Still tweaking a few things like the gamma / smoothing but here are a few videos of it below with the same settings used in WS2812 videos:
