Same lamp in two groups

Post by yassi »

I have an issue here with a lamp which appears in two Hue groups.

One of the groups, called "Bürolampen" (ID:8) is allocated to a room "Büro" (Office) and the lamp ("Papierlampe") ist in that room. All good.
However, I a have an unused group (ID: 5) which is not allocated to a room and the lamp appears in that group as well and can't be removed from the group.
Deleting the group isn't possible, because it will be recreated automatically when reading the bridge config.

How-to solve this?
I want to have the lamp only in the correct room and not in the unallocated group as well.

Code: Select all

The plugin copies whatever is on the hue bridge. If there are 2 groups it will also create 2 groups. But you can switch off auto create

OK, thanks. That's clear.
But then, it's a hub issue and not an Indigo one, right?
