Hue Essentials question

[harphere]

Hey there,

I noticed you have an automation for Hue Essentials to start the Sync program using ADB command. Has it been reliable for you?

I'm really struggling to make mine start the Sync program reliably using the same ADB command but in a script.

For me, the ADB command does not start the Sync unless the Hue Essentials app is in the foreground. I'm running Hue Essentials 2.4.4 on an Nvidia Shield with a diyHue light strip.

It's becoming really frustrating to deal with since I either have to manually start the Sync from Hue Essentials or an automation to open Hue Essentials, run ADB, then flip to Kodi etc. to start a movie which isn't the best experience.

I came across your repo while searching for someone else using Hue Essentials with Home Assistant.

Thanks for any tips you can provide.
