Apologies as this is probably off topic.

But I am thinking of getting a TV backlight as I think that would extend the immersive feeling of my Sky Stream experience. As such does anyone have any experience/recommendations for a backlight system?

Thanks in advance.

@Sky+Go+lfer Your query is not related to Sky Stream but rather a 3rd party TV? That being the case this community isn't the best place to ask about this, perhaps the AV Forums would be better suited as a stream puck would have zero effect on any TV backlight system.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

Being an external device, Stream could run through a Philips Hue box before reaching the television set. It's having Sky Glass as the source where this isn't possible.

Set-ups which require a camera looking at the screen output always seem distinctly clunky by comparison to Hue.
