FAQ:

Is Huegasm available on other platforms?

Huegasm is available for mobile, but there are better solutions. Th

My lights start to lag or get unresponsive. Sometimes they continue flashing even after I turn off the music. What's happening?

The hue system has very real limitations as described here: https://developers.meethue.com/documentation/hue-system-performance#systemThroughput (requires a registered account to view)

The hue bridge can only handle so many requests a second before it starts to queue any additional, incoming requests to be run at a later time. Try lowering the beat sensitivity if you notice this happening to you.

It is also recommended to not run several hue applications at once as they may clog your system and cause performance degradation.

For best performance, it's recommended to use v2 of the Hue bridge.

Huegasm isn't changing my lights to the music coming from my Chrome tab. What's wrong?

first make sure that Huegasm is listening to the correct chrome tab. When you click on the big button on Huegasm's "Music" tab, a blue rectangle should appear by the tab title indicating that Chrome is sharing its audio stream with Huegasm. If you've ensured that this is working correctly, try turning up the beat sensitivity through the slider on the "Music" tab. Do note that the volume of your music also affects the sensitivity of beat detection.

I get a "Uh-oh. Failed to retrieve your system's media stream: TrackStartError" when I try to listen to "System". What's wrong?

This is a known chromium issue. In one reported case it was caused by connecting multiple monitors via usb and in another it happened on a system with surround sound. Refer to:

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=716732

Why does this extension require the permissions that it does?

"Read and change all your data on the websites you visit" - needed for all extensions that interact with extenerla web pages. Huegasm needs this to be able to listen to to the music from your browser's tab.

"Capture content of your screen" - needed to capture the sound coming from your system. Also used for screen syncing.

Huegasm does not collect any information about you and has no server component.

Will Huegasm work with only Philips Hue lights or other lights too?

Huegasm will connect and exchange messages with your Hue bridge. As long as your smart lights can be controlled by the Hue bridge, it should work with Huegasm and it has been tested to work with third-party zigbee lights.
