Hue support beta?
« on: November 15, 2014, 07:01:50 am »
Hi,

Installed r069 yesterday, all went fine.
Just tried the hue support now...
I wouldn't really call it beta, right?

It works very strangely. I added my bridge and it told me it found 4 bulbs. I have 18  ???
I did a refresh and it found a couple more.
After that, refreshing didn't find anything anymore.

And then I went to check the connected sensors to control the lights.
They were listed as bulb1, bulb2,...

Why is this working like this? You can just 'extract' a list of bulbs and their names from the bridge, so I don't get why I only see half my lights with no name associated...

I riceved my Almond+ today !

The 1rst thing I try after integrate the router in my network was to configurate Hue.
I succed in add the bridge, but same issue for Bulbs. I found 3 of 5 (3 lamp I gess but not the 2 strings).


[Edit : If I understaind well what I've read, strings are not implemented yet. So for me, all my bulbs are connected but still appear as Unsuported]

Right now the hue bulbs only work via the LCD and I think the local web UI, not the apps or the cloud.

The problem is not how to use them.  The lights aren't correctly discovered when you add the Hue-bridge...

1. Not all lights are added.
2. The lights that are added don't have a name so you don't know which light it is.

Keep in mind that this is still in beta, we're still working on improving things and some improvements have already been done internally, but I'm not sure when it'll be released.

Has anything changed in the R069cb-firmware to better support the Hue's now?

No new device types are supported yet, but otherwise I don't really know, there was nothing in the release notes, hence why I didn't add anything.
We got a LUX bulb and a light strip now that we're going to send to our software team this week and we should be getting some other stuff soon.

I wanted to try the rules today, but since I only have sensors (door/window, motion and keyfobs) I couldn't add a rule (I could only define the If, not the Then).
So I tried adding my Hue's again, which wasn't a great success last time, and unfortunately wasn't this time either.
I didn't get all my bulbs, but the weird thing is that they are listed as "unsupported device" and I can't control them, not even just on/off...
So now I still can't make any rules  :'(

Thanks for the heads up, I'll have words with the software team as I'm pretty sure on/off was working before through the local web UI.

Strange, on the LCDUI, the lights are listed ok, and all the controls for on/off/color are available. However, I'm not able to control them, the buttons have no effect.

Are you saying you can't even control them from the LCD now?
