Group Device Features for Philips Hue Hubs

[brientim]

Hi Wim,

I am using two Phillips Hue Hubs both running current firmware and I am seeing a difference between the Groups "Features" when the devices are generated between the two hubs.

The first hub, Downstairs, has the full feature set whereby the second hub, Upstairs, is not and only has On/Off/Dim and this is for all Groups in the second hub. I have deleted and recreated devices but this results on the same outcome. The only distinction I can find is the first device in the Downstairs is a floured light and in Upstairs, this is a white light. Can you please advise where to look next as I can establish why this is the case.

Thanks in advance

Is there any light in the all lights upstairs group that has colour capability?

The plugin should check every light in the group on color capability and if it is there it should create the color features. If not, the extra features will not be created.
In the near future the all lights group will no longer be used btw... as those groups include plugs, it has unwanted side effects. In the ApiV2 for the Philips Hue bridges that is available in beta it is already removed.

Hi Wim,

Yes there are a number of them that are colour. It isn't a major issue and if it is being dropped, it is not worth any effort and I do not want to distract you from the pending changes that are coming with ApiV2.

Thanks Tim. I will double check this for other groups as well as it should not happen for those as well.
