Description

I have a Phillips Play Gradient lightstrip I am trying to connect using diyHue. I connected it successfully in Home Assistant, and have added it to diyHue as well.

I open the Hue app and got it to connect to the bridge, but then it gets stuck and diyHue starts generating a lot of errors:

Thank you, I missed the solution there. I tried your suggestion to switch to LST002 per #1035, but something isn't quite right.

The Hue app sees it, and I can do basic control, that works well. However, any kind of effect from either the Candle/Fireplace effects in the Hue app or an entertainment/sync effect in Hue Essentials on my TV only set one color, and not always one that seems correct, with no motion.

[hendriksen-mark]

that is true, you have not added your light good.

there is only 1 light in your config.

[enoordam]

Right, why would there be more than 1? It's 1 lightstrip.
