Error while polling WLED since version 1.3.0

[AlexKusnezov]

Hey, after updating to 1.3.0 I’m getting error while polling on all of my WLED lights. Can you maybe look into it?

edit:for now reverting back to 1.2.4 solved my problem

[jstrausd]

Hey, sorry for that, it seems like that this is a generic problem.

To fix this problem temporary, do not upgrade to 1.3.0 and stay at the last version 1.2.4!

I will fix the problem as soon as possible.

Hi jstrausd, I see following error in log - might be help ? thx and happy new year :)

[jstrausd]

I just released version 1.3.1 with some bug fixes.

• It fixes the issue that the brightness changes shortly to 100% after changing the brigthness
• It fixes the error described above (Error while polling WLED)
• And some small changes in package.json (dependencies)

[v0r73x]

issue with 100% is fixed - i like it :) thx now, just figure out why with homepod voice the color change changes to red instead of the spoken color and this plugin is solid state :)

[jstrausd]

Ok weird, on my HomePod mini it is changing the color correctly🧐

I guess I know the issue - I am using SR WLED and not the original one - on Alexa they return the right colors but on with plugin on homebridge it just switch to red or to black (out). Could be that there is something different in code? If you have an addidtional esp around you you can test it. I guess it will be same on your side.

Ok, Can you post your setup? (Microcontroller, WLED Version, Light Strip "Version") But it could be that HomeKit is interpreting the color different. Does this issue also occur with the Home App on an iPhone or Siri on iPhone?

[v0r73x]

amazing ! - if I do it by Iphone it works ! so forget my theorie I had before ;) I can talk Siri put light in blue, green etc. and it works instant.

so its just with the homepod...thanks for the hint to figure this out. But is it then related to the OS of homepod ?

[jstrausd]

Ok that's kinda good :D Do u use a HomePod mini or just the original normal HomePod?

[v0r73x]

Homepod mini I use - and on ATV4 the original homekit server is running (all in same network) - on a rock64 homebridge running with ur plugin - same network, too

[jstrausd]

Do you use the latest version of Homebridge and for the HomePod mini?

[v0r73x]

jepp

[jstrausd]

Ok that's very very weird, that this issue occurs. The only way to fix this is to find out how your homepod is interpreting the colors and sending it to the Homebridge Plugin🧐

[v0r73x]

will give it a try - thx and have a n1ce evening
