Multiple screen/entertainment areas #137

Open vonfrank opened 4 years ago

Would be nice to have the opportunity to run multiple instances, or multiple entertainment areas for a dual/multi screen setup :)

The Hue bridge doesn't actually support multiple light sync sessions at once since the activity saturates the Zigbee channel almost completely. However, if you meant to combine multiple screens into one sync session then that should be possible.

I'm running two bridges with two instances, this works. You just have to get a second bridge.

In such usecase that you would need a second bridge, it is probably better to ALSO have a second instance of Huestacean running.
