@VimalO Got my Novostellas on full local control with DDP: Novostella Blaze 25W RGB Flood Lights Local Control w/DDP
I can control them with a WLED controller.

Awesome thanks for the mention @DesertBlade
Had a quick look at your article and I got a little bit scared. 
Will look again closely at it over the week-end and will check whether I want to take the leap!
Don’t think I have any ESP32 lying around though … did you make any photos of the wiring that you needed to change or no hardware change to make this workk?
The flash is all over the air and configured through the browser with OpenBeken. You do need a Linux computer with wifi, a raspberry pi would work. You could even do a boot from USB with on a laptop.
It only takes about 5 minutes per device, once you have all the pre-reqs figured out.

Does the linux computer/ esp needs to be dedicated or just temporary for the flash?
How do you then control the animations of the floodlights?
The Linux box is just temporary for the flash.
For effects you need an ESP32 with WLED installed. The floods will listen for the DDP commands from it.
