Suggestion: Integrate possibility for syncing the Ambilight with Philips Hue #15

Hi everyone, I have been wondering for some time if it is possible to synchronize the Ambilight of my older Philips TV directly with Philips Hue using Home Assistant. It’s a 2016 TV, for which ahue sync app was available back then: https://www.philips.de/c-p/PTA008_00/ambilight-plus-hue-app Unfortunately the app is no longer available for iOS and is also not compatible with Android 10 :frowning:

It seems that the app at that time retrieved the Ambilight information of the TV via its jointSPACE functionality and synchronized it with Hue. It would be cool, if you could do that, e.g. with that custom component, also via Homeassistant.

Then I would have a replacement for the no longer supported app and could integrate the start of Ambilight directly as an automation in Homeassistant :slight_smile:

Closed, because I think this request fit's better to your other custom componente "ambilight-yeelight". Opened an Issue there instead: https://github.com/jomwells/ambilight-yeelight/issues/6
