Unable to controll group0 (all lights) #8

Open pcmvanveen opened 7 years ago

Default the hue has a group 0, with are all the lights connected to the bridge. This group didn't show up. So it is not possible to turn all the lights with one command to the bridge.

Please make group 0 also visible in the configuration

ok, this issue seem to be the root cause of my timeout / stack size issues. Wenn I use a group of two light as hue input, i'll run into troubles. i have

a lot of "timeouts" communicating with the bridge.
some RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded in the log
sometimes 404 errors form hue bridge.

If I use one of the bulbs, it seems to work fine ATM.

Group 0 is special and doesn't have any state, I'm reluctant to implement this because this will need some special handling and not work well with how the design is now
