Mi*Light 3 / LimitlessLED v6

Hi.
I have been using Mi*light with Home assistant through the LimitlessLED component for some time.
Now i got myself an extra bridge, to controll more than 4 groups.
But the new bridge runs a newer version.

I cant seem to get this bridge working with Home assistant.
I think this have to do with the newer version. Since some other tools only runs with the old one as well.

Have anyone gotten this to work with the new version of Milight ( MiLight 3 / LimitlessLED v6 )?

Home-assistant is not yet able to handle the new bridge (v6), there is already some open issue for that and feature request.

Thanks for the answer.
I found the issues and forum thread after the post (should have looked more around before posting i see)
I tried with the fork of the python limitlessLED library, but couldn’t seem to get it working.

  • Probably cause im too much of a noob :wink:

I went to my Hass user/vm ( Installed with the all in one installer for RPI )
I used pip uninstall limitlessled
and then used pip install -e git+https://github.com/soldag/python-limitlessled.git@master
Rebooted the whole PI.
In the config i added the new bridge with the ip, version 6 and the new port. (tried both the new port and default)

After that i couldn’t even controll the old lights…

If you have the time, and i just missed a small thing please let me know what.
Otherwise ill just wait or buy another old bridge for now.
Either way thanks for the reply :slight_smile:

The current version of HA (0.40.2 as of this writing) supports the v6 bulbs.

Only the bridge LED still does not work on the v6 bridge with LED light.

Try this… I’ve gotten enough feedback that it seems to be the fix, I think at some point this must have been taken out for the bridge_led: true option, but that doesn’t seem to do anything.

Should pull this for a future release shortly, just haven’t had the time to dig into what bridge_led actually accomplishes / if it needs to be in there at all, I did not write this component.
