Hi @Martijn

1. If you want to return to a state, you should figure out a way to save that state before dimming it to 10%. I configured my living room to use scenes. So I have ‘movie scene’ and a ‘normal scene’, that in their turn dim the lights to their appropriate dim values. The only thing Kodi does, is it switches between scenes on play/pause. Hint: store that current scene in a textual variable and build a flow that triggers on ‘A variable has changed’.

2. The music section is a bit of an underdeveloped section at the moment. The app does however have support for party mode, which allows you to play smart playlist that should be able to dynamically play your blues. Have a look at [https://kodi.wiki/view/Party\_Mode](https://kodi.wiki/view/Party_Mode).

Let me know how you go!  
Cheers

@Marvin_Schenkel thanks a lot! I have partymode active and that does the job indeed. And randomizes the tracks. All good. But what could be a workaround to achieve this with other music, like jazz or rock…

Tonight I will try the scenes you mentioned, very nice.  
Thanks,

Martijn

The latest update requires homey v2.0, please update your Homey 🙂

</div>

In that case, you should change `"compatibility": ">=1.5.0"` in `app.json`.

Right now, it’s being installed on Homey’s running v1.5 because the app says it’s compatible.

@Marvin_Schenkel,

I have the same problem like @B3rt, Homey and your app is with the latest Firmware. Kodi is installed on Intel nuc with windows 10.

@Marvin_Schenkel  
No i don’t want to update my Homey as long there is not a desktop app for Homey for managing my flows i stay on 1.5

So how to fix this, can i download the old version which works with Homey 1.5?

Yes thx i read that, but there is no version listed (looking for the last version for homey 1.5), not sure if this is the correct one and also no instruction how to install it.  
You did say through CLI, but i have no idea what that means or how to do that… ☹

when can we expect a fix so it will be updated automaticly to the correct version?

It is caused by a bug of the app itself, so i hope there will be an update available that will fix this bug without to do anything manually

Yeah I know what is up here, the app crashes when you try to perform an action (e.g. pause kodi) when kodi is offline. I thought I had fixed this, but will need to update the app to prevent this from happening… Stay tuned 🙂
