Hi,

I'v tried to add an second instance. I have the lights behind the tv (19444), but also AtmoOrb, on channel 19446.

How do I do this, if I try, it's not working. And the 19444 channel is responding really slow.

I did this:

"accessories": [
            {
           "accessory": "Hyperion",
           "autoupdate": "true",
           "name": "TV Backlight",
           "ambilightName": "TV Ambilight",
           "host": "192.168.1.10",
           "port": "19444"
            },
            {
            "accessory": "Hyperion",
            "name": "AtmoOrb",
            "host": "192.168.1.10",
            "port": "19446"
            }

Hallo Tristan,

nach dem Update von Homebridge 4.20 auf 4.25 tritt nun folgender Fehler auf:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge/node_modules/hap-nodejs/lib/Characteristic.js:225
if (myString.length>maxLength) myString = myString.substring(0,maxLength); //Truncate strings that are too long
^

Mache ich irgend etwas falsch? Hab' ich was übersehen?

I have separated buttons in homekit. One switch for ambilight and the other one for color. If i open up homekit and switch off ambilight and then close homekit app and reopen it, ambilight will be highlighted as ”on”. Please update this plugin to work better with hyperion.ng

Thank you for the homebridge-hyperion plugin!

I'm receiving an error via homebridge when trying to switch the light (on/off or any color):

The fault is probably all mine, any tips?

hi I'm getting error
Update Cancelt! Error: Command failed: npm view homebridge-hyperion-light version
npm ERR! Response timeout while trying to fetch https://registry.npmjs.org/homebridge-hyperion-light (over 30000ms)

I no you are no longer using hyperion from your other posts but i have only been getting this error since upgrading my npm and was hoping it was something that just needed updating on the add-on thanks

Hi,

Great work. I just have one odd problem.
When I first load the HomeApp it shows the Ambilight switch as on even though it is off. I can then control it properly. Each time I start the HomeApp it again shows it as on. Are you experiencing this?

Hi,
it would be nice to get an option to let start the boot effects of Hyperion like the Rainbow mood, Rainbow Swirl, Blue mood blobs and all the other ones.

Hey,

would be nice if you could add Hyperion 2.0 support. You have to change the "hyperion-js-api" since the api of hyperion-remote has changed. Would be great since Hyperion 2.0 ambilight engine looks quite a bit more polished

Nach dem Update wegen den Effects - hab ich jetzt das hier ^^

Hi,

wollte grade mal dein plugin testen, bekomme beim starten der homebridge aber immer diesen hier:

Aus der cfg habe ich auch die effects Zeile gelöscht, aktuell ist diese so:

macht doch irgendwie keinen Sinn oder? Bei mir kommt die Meldung leider immer...

Hallo Tristan,

zunächst einmal möchte ich mich bei dir für deine klasse Arbeit bedanken!

Ich kann mir gut vorstellen, dass der Fehler bei mir liegt,
da ich damit allein auf weiter Flur zu stehen scheine. :D

Schalte ich nämlich mein Ambilight aus, dann wird mir zunächst auch der Status "Aus" in meiner Home-App angezeigt. Wenn ich die Home-App schließe und anschließend wieder starte, dann wird das Ambilight seltsamerweise wieder als "Ein" angezeigt, obwohl es tatsächlich aus ist....

Wie und wo fragst du den Status ab und ist es mir irgendwie möglich deine Statusabfrage für meine Zwecke anzupassen - falls notwendig?!

Grüße
Jan
