A system (11) for controlling a lighting device (31, 32) to render light effects determined based on an analysis of video content while a display (47) displays the video content is configured to determine a display white point used by the display and determine a lighting device white point to be used by the lighting device based on the display white point. The display displays the video content according to the display white point. The system is further configured to perform the analysis of the video content to determine the light effects and control the lighting device to render the light effects according to the lighting device white point, and either: transmit color information and the lighting device white point to the lighting device to enable the lighting device to convert the color information to light settings according to said lighting device white point, or perform the analysis of said video content by determining colors from said video content, convert said colors to light settings according to the lighting device white point, and transmit light commands comprising said light settings to said lighting device.
