FQA and how to set the camera on the bottom step by step: czcams.com/video/N8TmKCY73WQ/video.htmlsi=BooGada6DnMXAwO4
This link just brings me back to this video...
How did you mount the camera to the bottom?
Found it!!
@Tim_Hicks_89 Govee Tv Backlight T2 - Calibration / Settings / Camera Tutorial & FQA
czcams.com/video/sYmIMWYBpFY/video.html
My tv is mounted. Would you have any tips on how I could still have the camera put on the bottom??
@ericbaker615 you have it mounted on the wall?
Dude! I thought my govee backlight was broken, I was so mad! But your tip to set the camera on the button changes everything! Thank you so much! I was in tears but you saved me!! Thank you thank you thank you!
I was like you super frustrated so that’s why I was like “for sure more people are having this problems is impossible” happy that I could help you out
Thanks mate - difference was night and day after mounting from the bottom. Easiest way for me to set it up was to use double sided tape to hold it down on my sound bar, aimed upwards. Colours are perfect now; regardless of the settings
Hi man happy that it work out for you but have you try my settings :)
Thank you very much Mate. You safed my day. I had a lot of problems with the T2 showing water in red at the Wall. Now its perfect for me.
Really happy that I manage to help you with this video on the best settings for the govee t2. I’ve done a new video answering a lot of issues because seems that this video for some people was not enough but happy that worked for you
Thanks, helped me a lot already. My issue is that the camera is getting confused by the outside light. But makes sense that it’s most effective in a dark environment. Also the viewing angles of my TV are apparently not that great. From the front a white screen looks perfectly white. But for the cameras the corners look orange, almost red. But thanks for the advice. Really helped me :)
Happy to know that you found it helpful
Great video. I have a H6199 and it helped push some of the colors to what they were supposed to actually be after adjusting the saturation. I had excessive amounts of green. No anymore.
Happy that my video help another person thank you so much … stay around for more videos like this and related to back lights :)
Thanks so much for these tips, I did as instructed and it improved my setup.
Really happy that this helped you to get a more immersive experience with your govee t2
Thanks a lot for this video! It really helped me calibrate my colors. I have mine actually from the top and it works great still with your recommended set up. Appreciate it
If you put it on The bottom your govee t2 is going to be even better
@@MADpack I have my tv mounted to my wall pretty high so i don't really have anything that can reflect from the top. Since it's so high up I'll see the camera more prominent if i put it at the bottom so I kept it at the top.
Thank you so much... My lights were so red it was like a bloodbath. This is perfect. Going to stick with the camera at the top for now but will let you know what I think when I switch it. Awesome video!!!
Happy that you manage to get better results with my settings on your Govee tv backlight t2… but definitely change the camera you will get better results
Thank you for the tips, I came onto the app lost, my screen may not be perfect, but so much better than the factory settings, again, thank you!
Happy that my settings helped you to have a better experience with your govee t2 where are you from?
@@MADpack - Your video really did help, from Tennessee, US
Thank you I like to know where are my audience from
Thank you for the video
Hope it worked for you
Yes💪🏽👍😁@@MADpack
It worked?
@@MADpack yes, looks very nice
I’m happy to help :)
If I have led lights on my ceiling as well can I still put the camera at the bottom? Or will it pick up the color of my other led lights on my ceiling?
It may catch lights from the ceiling
Thanks, for a minute u was confused on how to calibrate but this is good!
I was confused? I didn’t understand but happy that you found value on this video of the calibration of the govee t2
Helo donyou have the video how you put the camera in the bottom. I have the sane TV. I don’t have color accurate please. Excellent video
Not really but to put on the bottom you need the stand I use on my Tv In the first place have you buy it already?!
Great video! . I have some problem when the screen in full black the strip light show blue how to fix it.
Try to make a new calibration and follow my steps hope it sort you out
My back wall is dark blue would you suggest not pushing the colour calibration as far?
If you position the camera has I put in mine I will try first with the camera settings that I’m using now on my govee t2
I have the lg c2 on a stand. I dont think putting it on the bottom will work because of the way the stand is.
I don’t have the lg c2 so I can’t confirm because I can’t remember it but the stand I remember is horrible even really wobbly so I would have upgraded to this stand that I have is so much superior
Very much appreciated
Happy that my video helped you out
Thanks so much for this video! I moved my camera to the bottom of the screen and it made a big improvement. Question for you: Do you have any recommendations for Relative Brightness? I’m a little confused at what settings should be used there. I have Govee T2.
I have cover all that on this video and other questions on this one: czcams.com/video/sYmIMWYBpFY/video.htmlsi=jHwWY61atQeIwiR5
Hope you find all your answers on my 2 videos
Thanks I’ll check it out!
@RMW1982 hope they will sort you out :)
Thank you! This helped me!
I’m happy to k ow that my settings for the Govee tv back light t2
If the TV is installed on a semi-opaque piece of furniture, could any reflections bother the camera in capturing the colors of the screen well?
You can try I find it that is much more accurate on The bottom you can try this settings on your govee t2 and see if you are happy or try both and tell which one you prefer
Thanks for the Video. It really helped me to get a better performance. But the the LED Stripes still project some light in dark scenes, it's pretty noticeable. Any way to make the LED Stripes project even less light in dark scenes ?
Only changing to there new version or to nanoleaf 4D
Is the nanoleaf really that much better ? I honestly don't want to return the govee after the installation 😅@@MADpack
@user-pz3xg4pv1u if you have a Govee t2 I recommend to swap for the Govee t3 lite or Nanoleaf 4D comparison with the Govee t2 comes next week.
Boas MADPACK, tiveste que usar as esponjas na tela para calibrar? Abraço.
Sim eu pus as esponjas
By the way segunda sai novo vídeo onde respondo a muitas questões colocadas como calibrar e fazer o set up da govee da forma que uso espero k te ajude a melhorar a experiência
these settings are really accurate for everything except now my whites are just blue
So push the slider a bit towards the red
Yeah this helped a lot with the reds. Thanks mate.
I’m happy that this video helped you to get a better experience with your Govee T2
Great video! Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷
Do you own a govee Tv backlight t2 or you are still looking around the options you have available?!
@MADpack I'm planning to buy one after I saw your video! But I think there is no much difference with t1 which is only 50euro
@@aposman81 there is believe me a CZcams friend of mine have the govee t1 and is much slower than this one and less accurate than the govee t2 is worth it to put the extra money beside that the camera feel so much cheaper than this one
How do i make it so the govee backlight turns on automatically when i turn on the tv and turns off automatically when i thrn off the tv? Thanks!
You don’t natively inside govee you need to use something like google assistant and create some animations
You got the setting call blank screen setting. When you press this button you can chose a timer for your leds to shut off so if you chose 15 sec when you turn your tv off after 15 sec your leds will turn off
@arthurdesrosiers479 that must be recent or I didn’t notice that one
@@MADpack yep that's new install mine yesterday and notice the setting because i had the same issues
@@MADpack thanks for the tips! I've managed to setup an automation through Google Home and that works for auto on/off when the tv is turned on/off. Cheers!
Thank you. This helped!
Happy to know I solve the house of someone else using the Govee T2 enjoy it because is one of the best Backlight TVs on the market
How did you handle with letterbox? My goove almost not working when movie have letterbox...
How it doesn’t work? I don’t have issues that happens more with the Nanoleaf 4D not the govee t2
Thank you for your video, really helpful 👍
Thank you chiara I’m happy that you enjoy the govee Tv backlight t2 :)
Much appreciated. Your settings brings out some nice subtle colours.
Most other video's have these super saturated colours, which looks great for games and Marvel movies, but are way over the top for a documentary for example.
I noticed a blue sky often gives a purple light. Could that be improved?
Happy that you like my settings for the govee Tv backlight t2. Do you have also the same model or the order version of backlight tv from govee?
@@MADpack I'm considering getting one as it's on sale now.
What do you think about the blue sky? Can the white balance perhaps be moved a bit further towards blue or does that mess up other colours?
Like I explained this is the best results that I’ve got with my settings on the govee Tv backlight t2 unfortunately you can’t adjust colour my colour but if you follow my settings on this govee product you should be alright with the end result of this amazing backlight tv
Do you recommend buying this or are the lights distracting? I have my TV in the corner of room so concerned how it will work as it's not on a wall. Also if I placed camera at the bottom can it be about 70mm from bottom of TV and about 100mm away from the screen. Great video.
If the brightness is too high it is distractive and not immersive I have done also a video about the best settings… my Tv is also not on the wall and on the corner of my living room.
Boas, tenho uma dúvida/pergunta.
Comprei a GOVEE T2 e fiquei de facto muito contente com o produto, até há dois dias atrás em que 9 LED's da fita superior deixaram de funcionar. Sabe se o serviço pós venda da govee é porreiro? Obrigado
Eu ouvi dizer k sim agora não posso responder já k sendo CZcamsr não entro pelas mesmas vias de um consumidor final que faz a aquisição de uma govee t2
Very good thank you
Happy that you like it thank you for your comment
Anyone use a USB-C extension cable? If so, which one and which length? Are you extending the camera feed or the LED feed? I tried using several longer USB cables with the camera, none have worked thus far...
No I never try that and why would you want that?
Because I don’t want the camera on top of the tv nor do I want the wires to show
@zipstuff ok thank you for sharing
Did you just use doublesided tape to stick the camera to the bottom?
No I didn’t I’ve done a video to explain how I done it because a lot of you guys were asking how to do it. So Monday at 12:00pm uk time is coming new video about it
I have a 65 curved tv and am having a hell of a time with the t2
Have you try y settings?
Ya, the camera calibration doesn’t let me adjust the top tho
@brandonedmunds7910 have you set the camera on the bottom?
@@MADpacknot yet, I got super frustrated with it last night
@brandonedmunds7910 so follow my instructions
Boas MADpack. Vou expermentar hoje colocar a camera da T2 em baixo da tv. não estava a ter as cores correctas. mesmo com o equilibrio dos brancos, aparecem cores que nem sequer estão na tv (vermelho, rosas, roxo). Hoje vai sair novo video? abraço!
Já saiu mano novo vídeo da govee t2 para vos ajudar a ter melhores resultados
How did you reverse the lights with the upside down camera?
I have done a new video that answer to that and all the questions that multiple times I got on this video will be out this Monday at 12:00 uk time
My tv is hanging up high on the wall, so does it matter if the camera is on the top or bottom?
Today is coming a new video about the govee t2 where I answer to similar questions to this and I show more in dept why and how cu set it up I think you should see the video is 17 minutes but it will take all your doubts
Thankyou!
No worries happy that this govee Tv backlight t2 calibration video helped you where are you from?!
They need to add more settings to adjust the light while in dreamview mode. It's more accurate while it's off and it's shame. It's a really neat feature.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about this feature of the govee t2
Under colour calibration what setting is best smooth or vivid?
Custom
@MADpack I don't see custom I only see smooth, vivid and solid
@@Mattymullen08 where do you see that option on the Govee? Do you use iPhone or android?
@@MADpack android
@@Mattymullen08 I can’t find that option on my iPhone
for some reason my lights don’t go black whenever the screen is black, it won’t even turn white, it just shows random colors? is there a way to change it from the settings please help 😢
It will never turn black.. the t2 have no capability to do it. Have you follow my settings? Did you have position camera on the bottom?
Thank you 🤙🏻
Is it working for you?! Hope you are having a better experience with your govee t2
Great video ... thank you for your tips. Colud you pleas explain how you installed the camera on the bottom?
I put on top of the central part of my Sony hta9 cut a bit of the foam on the box to sit under and put the cera against the tv like if it was on the top of the tv if it makes sense
@@MADpack Thank you very much ... ich will try it so. Useally the remote control sensor is at the bottom. Does that kind of installation effect the remote control function?
@@dws1337 not at all
Hi great video but dont you need to calibrate the camera to the orange squares? If so whats the process for it, do i need to flip my phone round?
Be good if you could share a screen shot of it please.
Thank you
You just have to do all normal beside the direction of the LEDs on your govee t2 and the central orange just moved from bottom to top
Great video
Happy that you find it helpful I made a part 2 for all questions that people can have about it czcams.com/video/N8TmKCY73WQ/video.htmlsi=BooGada6DnMXAwO4
Can we get a updaze video please ❤️
Update video? What do you need ? Thank you for the comment on the Govee t2
@@MADpackfor the settings in the app
@Cano9463 I’m confused since that’s what is the video where you are commenting about the Govee t2
Mine doesn’t look that bright even at 100% it barely projects on the back wall and I have them on the edge of the tv? Any suggestions?
Have you thought it maybe damaged?
To be honest no it came brand new in the box but I guess you’re right. I’ll reach out to Govee. Thank you
@danharris4124 it can happen contact them and see what they say because I didn’t had that issue with there product
question sir when i turn off my tv the lights still remain on in a blue color is that normal or is there ant way to make it tun off when the tv is off ?
I answer to that and all frequent questions here:
czcams.com/video/N8TmKCY73WQ/video.htmlsi=WZKS-YQrz8SUOki5
Hey!! I’ve tried everything but on a black screen, my right side of the tv is always on like a white/light blue color, way brighter that the left side! I already replaced the whole unit and got the same result, HELP PLEASE!!! 😢
Hi there sorry to hear that how is position your camera? Do you have a light source on that side? Have you try to reset the unit?
@@MADpack there is a source of light but it also happens with the lights off. And camera was on on the top, then bottom. And yes, not only desert but also bought a new unit and replaced it completely, still happening
@chrisplaza1812 have you try to calibrate more towards the inside of the screen on that side?
@@MADpack I want to say yes lol, I’ve tried so many times already. It’s strange because the left side is perfect, but to your point it’s the side that is against a closed surface of furniture. The right side light is always on , even when the screen goes dark, but it is open to the next room, so trying to think if it’s reflection of light
es português? tens muito sotaque português a falar

My camera wont even connect do you know whats going on jts driving me crazy!!
Won’t connect? Does it not show any image? Is the cable ok? Usbc door ok on the remote?
Is there a controller for 5 , I have a 2.4 and can not use it. I got it by mistake. Best Buy won’t take it back . HELP
Sorry I didn’t understand your message
@@MADpack my mistake, sorry the unit calls for 2.4 That is not what my Wi-Fi. I have 5 G and I can not connect.
@cindymiller2928 all 5g network have a 2.4 option
@@MADpack thank you , I’ll keep working on it. ☹️
Is not a question to work you just need to contact the first time in the 2.4 after you can use your internet at 5 no problem
I dont se the option with the led strip
Sorry? I didn’t understand
How do I get my lights to stay on and not blank to sounds
Sounds? I’m confused sorry I didn’t understand you want the lights to react to sounds is that the question?!
You neglected to show whether to choose “smooth - vivid - solid”
Thank you for your comment have a great day
I like this video, very bai :)
Sorry didn’t understand the very bai happy that you enjoy my video about his product from govee the govee backlight Tv t2
@@MADpack bai means very good, wonderful, amazing, and I like really how you think outside the box. It is wonderful that you think like you do, loved the Sony Ht9 video also very concise very illuminating to the space. Bai :)
Thank you so much to explain me what that means and to follow my work happy to know that you saw more than one video of mine very thankful for that without people like you there is no reason to do this vídeos
Somehow I can’t get my white colour correct. No matter what I do it has either to much “green” or to much blue. I can’t do a white Colour something is wrong with my calibration
Have you try to calibrate the govee t2 the way I’ve done it?
@@MADpack Yes I did, somehow nothing changed. Even the camera repositioning had no effect… I don’t know what I am doing wrong 😂
@moritza.745 me neither not all the time the colours are super accurate so if you are looking after that the govee doesn’t deliver that
@@MADpack I know that it’s not that accurate but it seems like nobody has that problem. But it feels like I have too decide between a light blue or a mint green colour 😂😂
Can you turn off the lower LED strip? I would prefer if only 3 sides of the TV were lit :)
Why you want to turn on one of the strip lights on your Govee t2? Thank you for your comment
You could put black tape over the ones on the bottom to black out the colors.
@dlroto why doing that when you have a menu that is called relative brightness?
I wish i could put my camera on the bottom. My cats wouldnt allow it
Anyway with this one you have better results with it on the bottom so yea
I like the video. I have Lg nanocell is the same settings for me? I have some white disturbing background in dark scenes and the light is not bra. Ljuset tycker jag är ojämt.
I never review that product so I can’t tell if that will work with my settings of the govee t2
Can u show how u calibrated your tv.
@joakimsvensson3186 just do the calibration like they explain but set the camera on the bottom
@@MADpack ok how long from the tv?
How long? Sorry I didn’t understand your question about the govee t2
How far back should the camera be from the tv
Far back? You have a bit of plastic that fits with the fron of the tv
I mean when it’s on the bottom?
I’m not understanding are you saying how far the camera should be from the tv is that the question?!
@@MADpack yes that
My camera is next to the bottom of the tv like if you could turn upside down your Tv you could set up your govee Tv backlight t2 on there. Hope this helps you
Bro, thank you so much For this Video. I wasn't happy with the results until now. Gamechanger...Even though the camera is on top😊
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Happy that this made a difference for you I’m happy to have already helped so many of you guys… thank you to also let me know where are you based and where you use your govee t2 by the way witch tv do you use?
I have the Samsung "The Frame"-2021 65"
@mark5041 I have a friend that have 3 tvs like yours :) I also used to have Samsung tv before I changed to the Sony a95k
Some good tips! I also noticed that the red is way too strong and decided on the exact same white balance and saturation settings before watching this video. It’s kind of funny just how bad the saturation settings are on anything but 1% and also how the default white balance is deep into the reds. Makes me wonder what TV was used for the factory tuning.
I’m running it on a 2017 Bravia xbr-850e and the main issue I’m having is the color distortion from the sharp camera viewing angle. Blacks appear more blue/gray from the sharp angle which the T2 displays instead of recognizing them as black. Makes me wish there was a “black balance” tuning option. Perhaps this would be solved with an OLED model but I’m just not wanting to buy into that technology yet with burn in issues. (I like leaving my TV on for the automatic slideshow)
Inhale the most expensive oled on the market basically from 2022 and that continue to happen im testing another one but with htmi connections and man is you look to accuracy is night and day
Huh? As long as the images aren’t static, burn in isn’t an issue. A slideshow counts as a non static image. (Unless the same images repeat over and over)
For a reason like a save screen text normally move around
How do you perform the camera calibration with the camera at the bottom?
I explained on the video bro…
@MADpack no, you explained how to set the strip installation direction, but not how to calibrate the camera bro...
To calibrate go to the top right corner to settings and second option camera calibration and adjust the corners… put the orange bit on the tv and the one in the middle in opposite to set on the bottom set on the top of the tv :) hope this help
@@MADpackDoes this still work for you? I keep seeing people say to put the T2 camera below the TV but when you calibrate the camera, it allows you to move every dot except one of them. For some reason that one dot is locked in place.
I haven’t found anyone mention the solution to this issue.
Which dot? I had no issues if you are talking in the middle you move it to the middle top and calibrate I don’t really understand what you are talking bro
Didn’t work for me. This light is the worst to calibrate OMG returning
Maybe you want to consider this: czcams.com/video/kbafld1olOI/video.htmlsi=hR9ye_h84ZzRW4t0
What is the size of your tv?
@@omaravalos9299 55 inch. I even tried the reverse camera method (upside down) and it just was too much of a hassle. For the price point, it’s not worth all the trouble. I’m tech savvy and even this was frustrating for me.
I get it that’s why I’ve done the video to help people out so it an easier experience
It doesn't make any difference where you put the camera, the reflections on your TV are still the same. Besides that, good tips. I'm going to give it a try.
Hi there, it makes a massive difference I try both configurations and I couldn’t get good results on the bottom part with my set up so yes it makes a difference my friend. Happy that this video can maybe help you out.
Just put a cloth on the stand, problem solved.
Like the ones done by grama ;) ahahah
@@MADpack someone got they panties in a bunch 🤣🥴
@bade-bike1930 or from your visits ahahahah problem solved … go excuse to ask someone to take there jacket ahahah to don’t say other clothing :)
It is also ugly to have The camera at the top. At the bottom the camera is invisible
UNSUBCRIBED 🖐
Great 👍
Washed colors, low brightness … this is not Good calibration. Dude, you didn’t even put pure white screen to calibrate white balance … this is just washed colors with low brightness . No colors just grey …
My friend I just show the result of my research and what is my calibration. I don’t have the best lens for my canon m6 so no is not wash out and opposite of what you say other people appreciate my video calibration? Have you try before saying that is not good? I don’t think so do you even have a govee Tv backlight t2? Have a good day… if you have you could add value and share your calibration settings but is easier to criticise I know :)
@@MADpack dude, just start pure white screen, put white balance in the middle and check the lights. They should be pure white. You need to adjust camera position to get pure white leds with white balance on the middle. After that calibrate camera again. Put saturation to 1%. Rel brightness to 30% and brightness to 70%, white balance on the middle. I spent hours on this and now know how to make it properly. Just want to help you, sorry.
Don’t put white balance to the blue or red. It should be in the middle. Find good position for the camera to get pure white leds with white screen
No worries I also spend hours on mine believe me I try everything
If I was using that setting I had no blues
Wrong...each tv is different, if I had your setup I would send it back and it's govee not guuuveee
Great to hear that’s why 50.000 people with disagree with you ;) thank you for your hate comment :) happy that you are happy with your settings that’s what’s important
