      Hmmm. Is there any "idiot-proof" (/plug and play) solution at the moment for Xiaomi and "real life"?
      Flux as computer software helped me a lot.

      Philips Hue is beyond my means in my current situation

        I ordered one, but it is 220V so I will have to try again.

          @herf I keep my fingers crossed for your order :P !

          In the meantime I am still looking for "plug and play" solution to use Xiami LED bulbs as real life f.lux.
          I count on you, dear programmers!

              @AtomekTomek Does this integration work?
              I'm about to pull the trigger on a bunch of YeeLights, and if this works I'll be ecstatic!
              Having f.lux inteface with any/all smart lights would be an amazing thing!

                To be honest, I've just bought my first Xiaomi bulb.
                I'll try to use before mentioned manual, but I've never programmed :P
                Any help is welcome!

                        @AtomekTomek After some time screwing around with python, i managed to get it working with no prior experience. I can try to help you if you have any problems.

                          @AtomekTomek I also got it working, I can help you if needed, it's a 10min process if you are familiar with the tools!

                            Hi there! I also ordered a Xiaomi RGB light bulb, because of the price. Now I've read, that there is no direct way at the moment to keep it synced with f.lux :( And I am not familiar with Python and those stuff...
                            How did you get it to work @markussl and @powerfons ??

                            Thank you for your help!

                              Well, it seems there is development for integration with f.lux ;)

                              At least it's a beginning :thumbsup_tone2:

                                Our new beta has yeelight support, for lights that support their LAN API.

                                  I'm using the betas for quiet a while now.
                                  Could you please tell me, how to enable the support for YeeLight?
                                  I've already checked the box for YeeLight support, but it didn't work.

                                    Which kind of light do you have?

                                    Some of them I've tested don't seem to support the LAN API (only work through cloud), but it's more likely we have a bug...

                                        We have tested mainly on the Bedside Lamp, which is newer and works very well. It is one of the few that has 110V support so we can test it - unfortunately the 220V models do not seem to communicate very reliably when run at 110V in the US.

                                        If you are comfortable with Wireshark we could see if your bulb is responding to the discovery protocol (the first step) - it is port 1982 UDP (sort of like UPnP but on a nonstandard port).

                                        Also you should know that the LAN protocol we're using (provided to third parties) is not the same as the cloud-based system that the yeelight/milight seem to use in their own apps. So there may be bugs in older lights with the LAN protocol, and maybe they would be fixed in a firmware update, but I'm not sure what should work and what should not.

                                          @herf Hi, maybe I should have been more patient and more precise...
                                          It just works now:thumbsup_tone2:
                                          Don't know, why I didn't see it yesterday.
                                          I don't need extra stuff or another URL.
                                          Great!

                                          Does it affect all connected lights at once?
