New value source that outputs brightness (0-1) based on the daylight color LUT, computing BT.601 luminance from the simulated sky color. Supports real-time wall-clock mode or configurable simulation speed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Pending Features & Issues
Priority: P1 quick win · P2 moderate · P3 large effort
Processing Pipeline
P1Zone grouping — Merge adjacent LEDs into logical groups sharing one averaged color- Complexity: medium — doesn't fit the PP filter model (operates on extracted LED colors, not images); needs a new param on calibration/color-strip-source config + PixelMapper changes
- Impact: high — smooths out single-LED noise, visually cleaner ambilight on sparse strips
P3Transition effects — Crossfade, wipe, or dissolve between sources/profiles instead of instant cut- Complexity: large — requires a new transition layer concept in ProcessorManager; must blend two live streams simultaneously during switch, coordinating start/stop timing
- Impact: medium — polishes profile switching UX but ambient lighting rarely switches sources frequently
Output Targets
P2Art-Net / sACN (E1.31) — Stage/theatrical lighting protocols, DMX controllers- Complexity: medium — UDP-based protocols with well-documented specs; similar architecture to DDP client; needs DMX universe/channel mapping UI
- Impact: medium — opens stage/theatrical use case, niche but differentiating
Automation & Integration
P2Webhook/MQTT trigger — Let external systems activate profiles without HA integration- Complexity: low-medium — webhook: simple FastAPI endpoint calling SceneActivator; MQTT: add
asyncio-mqttdependency + subscription loop - Impact: high — key integration point for home automation users without Home Assistant
- Complexity: low-medium — webhook: simple FastAPI endpoint calling SceneActivator; MQTT: add
Multi-Display
P2Investigate multimonitor support — Research and plan support for multi-monitor setups- Complexity: research — audit DXGI/MSS capture engine's display enumeration; test with 2+ monitors; identify gaps in calibration UI (per-display config)
- Impact: high — many users have multi-monitor setups; prerequisite for multi-display unification
P3Multi-display unification — Treat 2-3 monitors as single virtual display for seamless ambilight- Complexity: large — virtual display abstraction stitching multiple captures; edge-matching calibration between monitors; significant UI changes
- Impact: high — flagship feature for multi-monitor users, but depends on investigation results
Capture Engines
P3SCRCPY capture engine — Implement SCRCPY-based screen capture for Android devices- Complexity: large — external dependency on scrcpy binary; need to manage subprocess lifecycle, parse video stream (ffmpeg/AV pipe), handle device connect/disconnect
- Impact: medium — enables phone screen mirroring to ambient lighting; appeals to mobile gaming use case
Code Health
P1"Start All" targets button — "Stop All" exists but "Start All" is missingP2Manual backup trigger endpoint —POST /system/auto-backup/trigger(~5 lines)P2Scene snapshot should capture device brightness —software_brightnessnot saved/restoredP2Distinguish "crashed" vs "stopped" in dashboard —metrics.last_erroris already populatedP3Home Assistant MQTT discovery — publish auto-discovery payloads; MQTT infra already existsP3CSS source import/export — share individual sources without full config backup
UX
P1Collapse dashboard running target stats — Show only FPS chart by default; uptime, errors, and pipeline timings in an expandable section collapsed by defaultP1Review new CSS types (Daylight & Candlelight) — End-to-end review: create via UI, assign to targets, verify LED rendering, check edge cases (0 candles, extreme latitude, real-time toggle)P1Daylight brightness value source — New value source type that reports a 0–255 brightness level based on daylight cycle time (real-time or simulated), reusing the daylight LUT logicP1Tags input: move under name, remove hint/title — Move the tags chip input directly below the name field in all entity editor modals; remove the hint toggle and section title for a cleaner layoutP1IconSelect grid overflow & scroll jump — Expandable icon grid sometimes renders outside the visible viewport; opening it causes the modal/page to jump scroll
