Only getting 3 colours #45

Hi there, I love the idea of your app, and have it installed on my minix 8h+ - I have 2 hue bulbs, 2 hue lux bulbs and a light strip.

I've installed both parts of your plugin, set it to 3 lights, and have chosen the 2 hue bulbs and the light strip - the lux bulbs are just to dim the back lights using my phone app.

When the hue addon starts, the lights flash, and the hub and connected lights seem to be getting picked up, but when I start a movie, I get 3 different colours, blue, green and purple, and they don't change ;(

Any idea what might be going wrong, or how I might go about getting this wonderful new toy working as it should?

Thanks a lot.

Just a note that theatre mode works as expected, but while playing a film the lights change colour, but stick without reacting to what is on the screen ;( I'm running on Android - how can I go about sending you the log file?

Hi! I think it's an Android issue where it's not picking up the correct colors. There's a settings called "Debug Log" in the add-on. If you tag that it will create a debugging log file in your XBMC dir (depends on your version).
