Xiaomi smart bulb integration

@alexx That worked for me! Thank you

My version 4.84 program also does not see the lamp. I did a complete reset of the lamps and reinstalled the program with rebooting the computer - the lamps simply ceased to be detected.
Previously, the program version 4.84 could detect both of my Yeelight. But then I changed the lamp server in the Android application, after which the f.lux stopped seeing the lamps. Therefore, I changed the server back to the one that was selected earlier - but the suite still doesn’t see Yeelight.
Of course, the developer mode is on in the lamps and I can control them through the LAN, but f.lux still doesn’t see them.

@john_doe Now I tried the program JeeLight, which is also able to control YeeLight lamps via LAN.
If I add the IP address of the lamp manually, the program easily detects any of the two lamps.
And if I use automatic search - the program fails to detect any of the 2 lamps.

Apparently, something is wrong with the lamp search algorithm.

Good morning, everyone :-)

I don't speak English so I will use an online translator, please take this into consideration and forgive me if my messages are unclear.

I use the beta version of f.lux and I have several Yeelight luminaires.
With fluxee everything is fine, except that I have to use it together...
Since a few versions it is possible to check the "YeeLight" box in the f.lux options and it works very well.
The problem with this method is that all Yeelight luminaires in the house are controlled by f.lux without distinction.
One solution would be to disable the LAN option on the lights I don't want to control with f.lux but at that moment these lights will no longer be controllable from my home automation server.
The ideal would therefore be for us to define the IP addresses of the luminaires that must be controlled in the f.lux options (or in a config file, as in fluxee).

It would also be interesting to be able to choose a power factor for each luminaire in order to uniformize the illumination because according to the models they do not illuminate in the same way.

Examples:
192.168.1.101:50 (50% of the f.lux order for a powerful ceiling light)
192.168.1.102:100 (100% of the f.lux order for an RGBW bulb)
192.168.1.103:80 (80% of the f.lux order for a desk lamp)

I hope that these evolutions are possible and that they will appear soon ;-)
Please note that I am available to perform tests if necessary.

It would also be nice to set a minimum and maximum color temperature for the Yeelight...I really don't like the intense blueish tint it gives during the day, even though it's set to 'quite a bit warmer'

Yes thanks we should use the same setting. I think I forgot to do that because it wasn't as bad as Hue but it's still important.

@herf is there any update to the post you made Feb 8, 2019? I just got some Yeelights (model YLDP06YL) and find they're uncomfortably blue when integrated with f.lux v4.104 recommended settings like @coendeurloo mentioned. The options available under Options and Smart Lighting > Connected Lighting > Lighting color (compared to screen) don't seem to have any effect.

Thank you for making such great software available for free!

As winter is coming, I'm again interested in pulling this project.

I have:
One xiaomi led bulb (here Im ready to splurge)
Samsung j5 phone.
Samsung s3 phone
Don't have router.

Is it possible to have very basic light automation with above tools?

I don't fet why my phone can't be router for my bulbs.

Bumping this thread.
