Two Ways to Sync Your TV Backlights
Discover the difference between HDMI and camera sync TV backlights, and find the right lighting for your setup.

HDMI TV Backlight
HDMI Sync
HDMI sync boxes capture colours directly from your gaming console or external streaming device, creating responsive TV backlighting without a visible camera. Unlike camera-based kits, they connect through HDMI for direct signal synchronisation, making them ideal for gaming and streaming setups. Built-in TV apps require an external streaming device to sync.

Camera Sync TV Backlight
Camera Sync
Camera sync backlights use a small camera to detect colours directly from your TV screen, creating responsive lighting that matches what you're watching. Unlike HDMI sync boxes, they work with built-in TV apps, live television and gaming consoles without changing your existing connections. The camera simply needs to be positioned and calibrated.
Find answers to common questions about TV backlights, compatibility, installation and choosing the right sync kit for your setup.
Each Zyko Atmos TV backlight kit comes with the main components needed for installation, including the LED lighting, its controller or sync box, and the necessary power accessories.
HDMI sync kits also include the relevant connection accessories, while camera-based kits include the camera used to detect on-screen colours.
Depending on your setup, you may need an additional HDMI cable, HDMI switch or external streaming device. Please check the individual product page for the exact package contents.
Absolutely! Zyko TV backlights can be installed on wall-mounted televisions, provided there is enough space behind the screen for the LED strips and cables.
For the best lighting effect, allow some distance between your TV and the wall so the colours can spread evenly. If your television is already mounted, you may need to carefully pull it forward or remove it temporarily during installation.
Always ensure the strips and cables do not interfere with the TV's mounting brackets or ventilation.
Yes. Zyko TV backlight kits are designed to sit behind your television, allowing most of the wiring to remain out of sight.
You can route the LED connections and power cables along the back of your TV, using suitable cable clips or ties to keep everything tidy.
For wall-mounted setups, cables can also be routed through an appropriate cable management system for a cleaner finish. Avoid trapping cables behind mounting brackets or blocking ventilation.
Our TV backlight strips use adhesive backing to attach securely to your television. Removing them carefully can help reduce the risk of leaving residue or damaging the surface, although this cannot be completely guaranteed.
We recommend gently peeling the strips away rather than pulling them forcefully. Adhesive residue may need to be removed using a cleaning method suitable for your TV's surface.
Avoid sharp tools, excessive heat or harsh cleaning chemicals.
Of course! Your Zyko Atmos backlights aren't limited to synchronising with your TV screen.
You can switch between supported lighting modes, select your favourite colours and adjust the brightness to create the atmosphere you want, even when you're not watching something.
Whether you're relaxing with soft ambient lighting or creating a colourful gaming setup, you can enjoy your TV backlights without having to use screen synchronisation. Available effects and controls vary by model.
In many cases, you can transfer your TV backlights to a new television, provided the LED strips and connections remain undamaged during removal.
The original adhesive may lose its grip once removed, so you may need suitable replacement adhesive to secure the strips to your new TV.
Before reinstalling, check that the LED strip length suits your new screen size. Take extra care when removing the strips, as bending or pulling them too forcefully could cause damage.
Camera-based TV backlights don't interfere with your existing HDMI connections, so your soundbar or surround sound system can remain connected as normal.
HDMI sync boxes work a little differently, as they sit between your HDMI device and television. Soundbars and home cinema receivers can still be used, but the correct connection arrangement depends on your equipment.
If your soundbar uses HDMI ARC or eARC, check that your TV's audio-return connection is maintained and that any additional HDMI equipment supports your required audio and video formats.
We recommend choosing a TV backlight kit that matches your television's screen size, measured diagonally in inches.
If your TV falls between two available size options, don't worry! A slightly larger or smaller kit may still be suitable depending on the model and how the LED strips are positioned.
For example, a 48-inch TV may work with our 50–55-inch kit, while a 100-inch TV may be suitable for our 90–98-inch version.
If you're unsure which size to choose, try our Setup Match quiz or contact our team. We're happy to help you find the best fit for your television.
Yes! Our Zyko Atmos HDMI 2.0 Sync Box allows up to two HDMI devices to be connected, while our HDMI 2.1 Sync Box has one HDMI input.
If you need more connections, you can use a compatible HDMI switch to connect multiple devices, such as a PS5, Xbox or streaming stick, and select which one you want to use. Only one device can provide the synchronised picture at a time.
Make sure your HDMI switch supports the HDMI version and features you need. For 4K 120Hz gaming, choose a switch that explicitly supports 4K 120Hz, VRR and ALLM where required.
