Homebridge Philips TV Ambilight

This plug-in provides support for Homebridge Philips TV Ambilight.

Info

Plug-in tested on 49PUS7101 ( API 6.2.0 ) & 75PUS7354 ( API 6.4.0 )

Working:

• Turning on Ambilight. Including Wake over LAN.
• Control of Color
  • Not solved bug: Philips TV uses different values than Apple for Hue and Saturation. I see that Hue is moved ~30 degree.

What's next?

• Switch of Ambilight modes
• ... ?

This roadmap should led to 1.0 release.

Authentication

Authentication is not needed for models I tested. Ambilight is supported on unauthorized port 1925.
