I’m running openHAB 2.4.0-SNAPSHOT Build #1379 and have some issues with the Hue binding or its interaction with the ESH Framework. There have been previous reports of Hue status update issues, but they all seem to point to issues that have been marked as resolved/closed, like post #12974 or issue 3…

Most probably because of this: [image] [SOLVED] Brightness-Issue Philips-Hue Bindings Hi I did not use/check this for a long time now, but I have a very strange behaviour with Philips Hue Bulp Type 210 in the latest snapshot and as well in Milestone M3: I’m…

[image] michaeljoos: it’s not yet part of snapshot 1379 No, it is not. But a new ESH snapshot has been released last night. It will be available in OH snapshot 1381.

@cweitkamp ESH build 298 has failed, so the mentioned fix is not in snapshot 1381. @michaeljoos The issue from noppes123 is different. The fix was for color bulbs with xy color space and his issue is about white ambiance bulbs with ColorTemperature.

But ESH PR #6298 could be related.

[image] NorbertHD: ESH build 298 has failed, so the mentioned fix is not in snapshot 1381 Yes, you are right. I have seen the RSS notification but have not checked the status. I am afraid then we have to wait a little longer. @noppes123 I observed an issue with the color temperature for some…

Reading ESH #5762 , it seems to me like there is still some debate to come for the ‘final’ solution. But the use of the CT-mode parameter as proposed by @Kai is a nice and simple fix. Anxiously waiting for the next ESH build to be included in OH… ;o)

Sorry to bring this ‘old’ topic back to live, but looking at PR #5762 , it makes me wonder if the implementation in the Hue and the Zigbee binding are taking a different approach to the color mode issue. On the Hue side of things, there seems to be concensus that the Color channel will always be val…

Hi Ron, Might I ask you to explain “mutual exclusive” in detail? What does it mean? Currently I cannot follow. Does the Zigbee binding not allow a thing to have both channels at the same time or does it rejected to send a color and a color temperature command at the same time? Thanks. Let me add s…

Hi Christoph, Thank you for taking the time to explain things to me (and sorry for the late response). I somewhat loosely used term ‘mutual exclusive’. What I meant was that per this discussion, the Zigbee binding has to deal with the fact that both color and color_temperature channels can have co…

[image] noppes123: deal with the fact that both color and color_temperature channels can have conflicting values/states Yes, that is true. But I think you missed a very important point. The Zigbee binding communicates directly via the Zigbee protocol with all devices whereas the Hue binding c…

Most probably because of this:

This was fixed but I think it’s not yet part of snapshot 1379. You can download the test version from github created by @cweitkamp
