[FEATURE REQUEST] Data Prefix option
Opened this issue · 2 comments
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
ESP Home supports WLED, but in a very limited manner (see ESPHOME WLED). Currently it sadly does not work with your custom component.
Describe the solution you'd like
I think adding the option to set Data Prefix (in my case to "0201") would solve the incompatibility.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I tried the experimental HASSIO ADDON, which works great, but as far as I am aware it does not provide any entities to cotrol the addon.
@Dejv311 I'm not very sure that something can be added to the data. API is used. Have you tried adding a component to the addon?
Hi, in the original LedFX project when adding a "udp" device there is an option "Data prefix". This is what enables you to connect ESP-Home led strips to LedFX. (Please see image - bottom left corner)
Since I have no way to connect HA to original LedFX I would strongly appreciate an option for doing the same in your integration.
I have to use the ESP-Home integration since it also allows me to control the other pins as switches, which the LedFX bins do not do.
Thank you
