Hue room light brightness / color exceptions
erkr opened this issue · comments
The problem
The new HUE api v2 integration now exposes the rooms as ‘grouped lights’. So it is possible to control the color or brightness of such a ‘room light’, controlling all lights in that room at once.
The issue:
When the room consists of a mix of fully featured color lights, only white lights and / or on-of devices, changing the room color or brightness will correctly control the lights that support the feature, but it throws exception's as well:
[547195973440] Request failed: attribute (.dimming) is not supported by resource
[547099967696] Request failed: attribute (.dimming) is not supported by resource
[547314349728] Request failed: attribute (.color) is not supported by resource
Doing the same in the Hue app works fine. The correct behavior is that the lights that don’t support the color or brightness change will be ignored.

Hey there @balloob, @marcelveldt, mind taking a look at this issue as it has been labeled with an integration (hue) you are listed as a code owner for? Thanks!

I think this one slipped through when we implemented the new grouped control feature although I'm interested in Signify's answer how to handle this. We just send a command to the group and let the bridge deal with the logic. From what I read here we should make an exception if there are non dimmable lights in a group. That sounds to me like a bug in the Hue bridge API or a least we misinterpret the usage.
I'll contact Signify and come back here
Thanks!
No response back yet. For now my suggestion would be not to mix any power plugs (or plain on/off lights) with more feature rich lights in a group if you want to have grouped brightness/color control
Thanks for the update and reopen 👍
Response from Signify:
we have indeed identified an issue that we send an error in the case that the first light in the group does not support the capability.
The lights in the group are still controlled as expected though but we send an unnecessary error in this case. This has to do with us still having to move some internal logic from V1 to V2 API, once that is completed this will be gone.
In other words: this is not a HA issue and can be closed here. It will be solved eventually with a Hue firmware update.
For now just make sure to not put power plugs in a group or be aware of the limitation that brings.
