Hi,

First off all thanks a lot for the great work on the milight binding.
I really appreciate this.
Some quick test confirm that it works. 
The only thing that doesn't seem right is the brightness control.
I have some strange behavior when trying to change brightness. 
Most often nothing happens and from time to time the RGB-W bulbs changes 
brightness to some minor difference.

Example:
Dimmer Firstfloor_bureau_ceiling_led_power  "Bureau led sterkte 
[%d]"   (Leds)  {milight="bridge1;8;brightness"}
Setpoint item=Firstfloor_bureau_ceiling_led_power minValue=0 maxValue=100 
step=10

Then I capture the UDP packets :

osgi> 21:04:11.861 INFO  runtime.busevents[:42] - 
Firstfloor_bureau_ceiling_led_power received command 80
.
.
.
21:05:08.787 INFO  runtime.busevents[:42] - Firstfloor_bureau_ceiling_led_power 
received command 10

No UDP packets seen

21:05:09.410 INFO  runtime.busevents[:42] - Firstfloor_bureau_ceiling_led_power 
received command 0

UDP data 4800 55 (bulb off)

Another thing i see are some errors when switch the bulb on and off :
21:09:44.296 INFO  runtime.busevents[:42] - Firstfloor_bureau_ceiling_RGB 
received command OFF
21:09:45.197 ERROR o.o.b.m.i.MilightBinding[:644] - messageBytes must not be

'10.10.1.125':

received command ON

But it works.

I hope this helps.
Regards,
Nico

Hi Nico,
I made a mistake causing the binding not to run into the command for sending 
brightness values to the RGBW bulbs. Fixed this, so new version should work now.
It's posted on google-groups.
Error messages when switching ON or OFF can be ignored, its still working.
I will try to solve this later on.

Regards
Hans-Jörg
