Hi.

Just came across this awesome hack and tested it. Changing colors by passing on the IP works fine. Just wonder why it wont discover any devices it self?

ledenet-ufo --list Gives me an empty list.

As far as i can tell, (shows in the original MagicHome App), i have the UFO controller version 3. A little packet sniffing on the phone, shows that it communicates via TCP on port 5577 if that matters.

BTW: Anyone figured the username/password for the ufo controllers web interface? (Its not admin/nimda anymore)

Hi,

sorry for the late response here.

It's possible the device you have is using a different discovery protocol. The ones I've messed with support a UDP broadcast discovery on port 48899. Code is handled here:

If your router disables UDP broadcasts this would also prevent discovery from working. But if the MagicHome app is working, that's unlikely.
