Problem when changing color in homekit application #62

Open janczakb opened 5 years ago

janczakb commented 5 years ago

I have a led list that is only detected using "fullColor". Changing colors by voice commands works well. However, I have problems in the application (colors change randomly and overwrite when you change).

Example: ezgif-5-6c9fb60827aa

I have the same problem with CW/WW-controller and RGB-controller, that only detected like "fullcolor".

Same issue here. Started a few days ago.

Has anyone found a solution to this issue? This is still occurring for me, making it really awkward to change light colors with HomeKit.

I suspect this is either an issue with node-milight-promise or something with the bridges themselves. I'm experiencing the same issue both with this implementation and homebridge and with the home-assistant homekit implementation. So I suspect they are using the same api library or there is something else going on.

edit: I just noticed that home assistant seems to be using homebridge under the hood so I guess that changes things.

This happens when you let HomeKit have a rgb and color temperature dial at the same time, see the explanation here: https://github.com/normen/homebridge-milighthub-platform#rgbcct--rgbww-lamps

Great! I'm looking forward to testing your code then. Although skimming through the Readme I didn't see any apparent support for changing the colors of the Milight hub itself?

What is "changing the colors of the milight hub" supposed to mean? Of course you can change the colors of RGB(W) lights with the plugin. It's meant for the OSS milight-hub though, not for the official milight boxes.

I mean the milight wifi box 2, that has lights a well serving a purpose of a small lamp while also being the hub

Again, my plugin is for the open source hardware called "MiLight Hub" (see this link here) which controls MiLight bulbs directly without any other hardware. It is not for the commercial MiLight boxes.

Alright, yeah I figured that out. I'll look into it soon, it looks promising.

Thanks for doing this work, and I prob should've read further into the Readme before asking dumb questions. Sorry for wasting your time😁
