no joke the dopest vid on youtube about anything alternative definitely a sub have you made the video about how to integrate this ima bout to do the same route you went so much smarter and better imo
It would be great to see you demo the lights with the camera facing you directly so we can see the difference as you adjust the Philips & room lighting :)
what the heck most underrated youtuber

This was literally his second video crazy enough. Had to have done videos elsewhere before this because they are great
So I was bored today and as I am in the process of gather bits and pieces for my setup, I decided to look up some videos of set up builds. Yours was the first to pop up so I watched it. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I subscribed about 2 minutes in. I'm excited to see where this channel goes.
Dude keep making these videos. There’s like no one else doing DIY desk setup stuff at this level. They’re all great. You should look into epoxy resin after you get your CNC machine to engrave a logo in your desk, fill it in with the resin then throw lights behind it to glow.
Such a good video! Great step by step 👏
Thanks for this! Long time Hue user, cheaper way with WAY more functionality to up my video quality and general life quality - sweet vibes when they're tucked away! A++ that Hue lights can get programmed into Stream Deck too - it's a no-brainer, why you would buy an Elgato light if you're already in the Hue ecosystem is beyond me! Your tutorial was easy to follow, set up, and install! Fantastic channel - subscribed!
This is exactly what I am looking for as I WFH and need my camera on during calls. Love the camera mount ideas as I could hide the lights behind my monitor when not in use.
Just thought of this idea, and wanted to see if somebody else had done it. Keep up the great work! And based on having 80 subs when this video was made, it seems like a lot of people agree :)
I use the playbar as streamlight too. Its perfect!
Bro this is so damn smart 😍 I’m thinking about the lighting since weeks and got 4 play bars at home. Problem solved mate!!! Totally awesome idea. It is also the perfect solution for events. Thank an greetings from Austria 🇦🇹🤓
Awesome video....the exact information I was looking for....wasted time looking at other videos that didnt cover how you did.....ordering lights asap!
Will need to make further adaptations but this puts me in the direction that I need. Thanks.
I want to start streaming and your channel has helped a lot !! Excellent content. 🇧🇷
Great video good work keep it up!!!!!
grate video man keep it up XD
Thanks for putting this up. Another reason to invest in el gato
Thank you so much!
You should enter your setup in a techsource video because i think your setup is awesome 👌

That was smart.. I almost fell into a trap.. great vid bro.. got a like and sub from me. Watch my quality go up now.
I enjoy.
NICE
This is a very interesting idea. My issue I would have is that I have very thin monitors save for the bottom half where the VESA mount is (Spectre 25in monitor 2020 edition). My left one is fine since its verticle and this could work, the center and right may be an issue. I may give this a shot since I do have Dazzne lights but they aren't sufficient for me and have some issues where they turn on randomly. These I could tie into my Alexa commands for starting a stream or recording..... Do you have anything showing the brightness for you vs other lights?
As a word of caution, the 3M tape that comes with the Play Bars is extremely sticky and can and might damage your monitor if you try to take it off later. Be careful! Also, a way to have viewers control your stream lighting with points, commands, etc, use Lumia Stream!
200 th subscriber!!!!!
nice
Do you also need the Hue Bridge in order to make these work?
Do you have a link to a vid using those lights whilst streaming?
Are they plenty bright in a dark room for streaming?
Hey! I see that you didn’t experience any flickering or banding with the Bars. What are your light/camera settings?

That's exactly what I did! Changed the shutter speed to 1/25 and the camera output is 1080p50. I can barely notice anything now (flickering or banding). Thanks!
im in the uk and i have tried to use it but it makes my sony a7 flicker ?
What monitors do you use?
When is the next vid coming?
how do you connect them to the stream deck?
The elgato keylight in my country costs 400 Dollars I am so glad for this video

@@FLXtv it's my biggest dream to start streaming, I'm still in school and my parents don't support it at all, so I'm saving up for my own setup. Luckily I'm in my final year of school so if I finish school I'm going straight to work for my stream setup cause it's my dream. But I stream a bit over my ps 4 but my ps 4 broke a few months ago so now I'm playing on my phone and try to make content with that untill I have enough money for my setup.
Here before 80 subscribers. We're gonna make It! #great Xd
yo... all three of the arms you have posted link for amazon doesn't have the same round plat you used to screw onto your VESA mount...

How do you connect 3 monitors to a pc? Please make a video about it.
Been 3 months when is the next video
The only thing that worries me is it bright enough? Elgato has 2800 lumens while Philips has 530 lumens.
Funfact: u can actually control the playbar with the elgato stream deck, too.
gameplay?
At what point were you going to mention you need a Hue hub? Add another 70 bucks.
