Random lights turn on

Drommedhar opened this issue · comments

Hi,
so far I'm loving screenBloom. It works quite well for what I want to achieve.

But I noticed that if screenBloom is running, sometimes lights in other rooms turn on. This does not happen if my PC isn't running or I have screenBloom turned off. I also removed all routines in other apps to check only against screenBloom, it still does happen if screenBloom is active.
Is there something I can do to reduce/stop this behavior?

Thanks in advance.

Hi there!

There really isn't any way for ScreenBloom to address lights that you haven't told it to address. One possible thing I can think of (because it's happened to me!) is that maybe you've moved lights around and haven't updated the ScreenBloom config?

What helped on my side was pushing the update buffer from 0.0 to 0.1. Might be just the bridge doing crazy stuff ^^

That's great, going to close this for now. Feel free to let me know if the issue happens again!
