Scene with WiZ light doesn't save (ignore) setting of selected effect

[tomatenkopp]

The problem

A scene with a WiZ rgb light doesn't store the selected effect any more (like "fireplace" or "candlelight"). It can be selected and seems to be saved, but on reentering the scene, the selected effect is off by default. Static settings like color, brightness etc. are stored (fortunately) This error exists since 2024.4.x prior to that version effects are storable settings.

Just wanted to try this out as well - and I experience the same phenomenon - effect settings are silently discarded. v2024.5 here, not sure what the last working version was, as I never used it before.

I'm having the same issue. I can select the effect then the effect changes the light as interested. When I have the scene, it doesn't save the effect.

Specifically I am trying to toggle between "Daylight" for all lights in a group and "TV Time" for a select couple of lights while the remaining lights get turned off.

Bumping this as this is still an issue while setting up scenes in home assistant; but as a work around you can make a script -> lights -> toggle on even if on -> Effects - you manually enter the Effect name from Wiz and it should activate/toggle the pre-existing Wiz scenes/effects.

huh, that works but is annoying it won't save scenes with effects properly.

There is another way to handle the issue with scene using Wiz lights but this is also a pain. Once you make your scene you have to go into the scene using code editor and remove the following lines from each entity:

color_mode: color_temp brightness: 201 color_temp_kelvin: 2702 color_temp: 370 hs_color:

• 28.391
• 65.659 rgb_color:
• 255
• 166
• 87 xy_color:
• 0.526
• 0.387 rgbw_color:

this seems to work for me.
