Green colors

[KarelBohacek]

I'm having an issue selecting the light teal color that appears when Trimui Brick boots up. It seems all LED areas have issues with shades of green, with exception of the pure green (RGB 0,255,0?). Am I doing something wrong?

The leds on the brick are super cheap and not calibrated, so they are bit wonky with color codes. I will see if I can find the shade of green used on booth up and see if I can add it to the list

Thank you for your reply and your time that you might spend on this. I thought it's like that with the LED quality. The good news is that it can actually do shades of green during boot and sleep, so it should be possible to figure out. I can tell you that many manufacturers use cheap LEDs, not just on retro handhelds. I had a difficult time setting correct RGB colors on my expensive GPU.

In my car I got factory RGB ambient light, and by standard it has a white color option, but looking through the OBD2 port at the color values its programmed as 255,200,200 and If I code 255,255,255 on it they actually become sort of purplish. So even in a expensive car like this they have not even bothered to use high quality RGB leds.

For example this is why Philips HUE lights are quite more expensive than other brands of RGB lights. The difference is that the Philips Hie are actually color calibrated and have an accuracy of about 95% CRI

Like if you have 3 Philips Hue bulbs and you all set them to blue, they will have exactly the same blue, but try this with those cheaper knockoff brands. All 3 bulbs will look different on the same color code haha
