Hi! I'm the developer of the OBS Stroke/Glow/Shadow plugin. Thank you so much for featuring this incredibly novel use of the plugin! Its amazing to see such a creative use for it.

let's admit it, there is no other DIY channel at this level

My toxic trait is seeing Matt's videos and believing I will ever have the time to replicate his projects and so saving every broken appliance instead of recycling/donating to a local makers club. Thank you Matt, you give me hope. And my wife an aneurism.

I do TV repairs, this idea also occurred to me, but I did not have the free time to implement it. This is simply one of the best DIY I have ever seen. The implementation is just so great, especially with the mirrors. You have reinvented the projection TV, my friend. Matt, you're the Master.👍

I'm still building the sound system

I don't care if it's not as bright as an OLED, you just basically made an OLED without the risk of burn-in, so this is an absolute mega win. Companies should really catch on and make this modification a consumer model but with refinements, I would buy it in a heart beat. 😎👍

I may be a simple truck driving man, but you by far are one of the smartest, ingenious, creative, and bright people I've watched on this wonderful app. Thank you!

This guy not only make these crazy projects, he make them look like very easy to do

I am glad YouTube exists because god forbid a world where Perk is doing stuff like this and no one knows about it. Incredible work as always.

Nice to see this done with a project. For those looking for "why doesn't this TV exist". It does; using two LCDs instead of an LCD + DLP projector. Its the Hisense U9DG. LTT and RTINGs has reviews on this. You have one super bright light source (as usual); and two layers of LCDs - one monochrome (to cut down the black areas); and the final one a standard color LCD. Hisense's U9DG uses a 1080p (1920x1080) resolution panel for its monochrome filter; and 4k for its standard RGB panel. Its an excellent TV; rivalling OLED. As always; the core issue is using things like an LCD to "block" light - they're not completely transparent; so there's always some light loss. This is true because of the nature of the display - its a transmissive display - meaning light has to be behind a color filter and transmit through that filter. An emissive display is where the pixels themselves emit light; such as an OLED display, or an outdoor LED billboard, or your local video wall at your summer outdoor EDM rave. I would assume this video is inspired by Hisense's product; just built at home instead. I'm glad both this channel and hisense brought these ideas to the mass market.

Now I'm going to find used 65"+ LCD & duplicate this for home theaters. I appreciate your work. Thank you.

It's crazy that it even works. Genuinely blown away by the fix you implemented - I too thought you wouldn't be able to solve for the offset. Just wow 🙂

4:10 I was 16 years old and didn't know that these capacitors can store such high voltages. Took apart my old monitor, which still had a built-in PSU, grabbed the PCB, and accidentally touched the legs of a very huge capacitor with my middle finger. It was numb for 2 days after that.

By far this channel has most creative, challenging and useful projects you can find on youtube. What a time to alive where u get all this free knowlege on ur fingertips...!!

How on earth do you come up with these ideas and then figure out how to make them work? Absolutely amazing work! This needs to be a full tutorial for people to follow. Astounding.

I remember seeing this done in the late 2000's at an RIT open house. The Department of Imaging Science set up a pair of DLP protectors behind the panel from an Apple Cinema Display for an early look at the possibilities of HDR before any consumer-available products were capable of it (OLED was in its infancy and not yet commercially viable). The two protectors together matched the resolution of the Apple display for pixel-perfect backlighting.

Whatever video he posts, it's going to be one of a kind This makes us realise the hardwork behind each of these projects to make it a working model.

Excellent project. As soon as you started talking about folding the light, my mind jumped to modifying a projector TV by removing the passive projector screen in the cabinet and projector filters and replacing the screen as you have with an LCD screen and processing the projector feed via OBS. This contains all the stray light for a better domestic experience.

That must have given an enormous sense of achievement, succeeding to recycle all these parts into something that works so well!

I have never seen a channel like yours where every one of your videos genuinely blow me away. you are such an inspiration
