flux_led not working well and complain about unique ID

newbeewan commented 3 years ago

The problem

Hi,

I have some light controled by the MagicHome app. This is some RGB bulbs.

I have tried automatic discovery with :

light:

platform: flux_led automatic_add: true

It detects my bulbs but there are in read only because no unique ID.

I tried to define manually each bulb, but no better result

How many bulbs?

Can you run "flux_led -sSti" on the command line and paste what comes back?

Yeah, there's lots of people complaining on forums about flux_led not assigning unique ids.

It's a problem for me because you can't configure entities and assign them to an area unless they have a unique_id.

I also request the ability to add a unique_id to each - even if manually added ie:

light:
  - platform: flux_led
    devices:
      192.168.1.81:
        name: String LEDs
        mode: "rgb"
        unique_id: “Magic_LED_1”

Can this be added?

Thanks.

+1 to being able to specify a unique ID, even if it must be done manually. Unfortunately the new lamps with the LEDENET protocol do not surprise tasmota or ESPHome like the ones before.
