Query regarding fixture definitions for Philips Hue Smartlights
Posted: Wed Oct 05, 2022 5:14 am
Hello, QLC+ community.
I have recently started using QLC+ in tandem with a Github utility called DMX-Hue, which allows Philips Hue smartlights to be controlled as regular 3/4 channel fixtures over Artnet.
The 3 channels are R,G and B, with an optional transition time channel.
Would it be right to try to add them as fixture definitions, since they are not standard DMX fixtures but work natively only via HTTP?
I'm currently using them as generic RGB fixtures, but wondering if the community would benefit from this addition to the library.
I see Philips Selecon as a manufacturer, but not sure if adding a profile for a new manufacturer for non-DMX fixtures is the correct move.
Please advise!
