I'm wondering if lightjams can now control Hue lights with the new Kinet protocol ? 

Or is Hue something different ?  (I have some hue ligths which can be controlled with apps).

Some other product, Luminair, is supporting Kinet and Hue. Both Philips protocols I think. Or are they kind of the same.. ?  http://blog.synthe-fx.com/?cat=41

Very misty stuff for me.

Hi Jack,

No, it's not the same protocol. The KiNET protocol is like ArtNET and is for the professional lighting fixtures from Philips (color kinetics). I've bought a few Philips Hue for testing and it's so unreliable and slow that I abandoned the idea of adding direct support in Lightjams. If you still want to try it, you can use something like this to send commands via OSC: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/lightjams/oBV8vXXKRHo/Qib-iMdqCwAJ

I don't feel the need to try to get it to work anyway.
