[QUOTE="Rick164, post: 1103923, member: 17766"] if the client is already intialized it skips that at the moment: [code] if (client.IsInitialized == false) { client.Initialize(tbHueAppKey.Text); outputtoLog("HUE has been initialized on COLOR CHANGE"); } [/code] And on startup it sets up the connection if an bridge was found: [code] if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(tbHueBridgeIP.Text) == false) { client = new HueClient(hueBridgeIP); client.RegisterAsync(hueAppName, hueAppKey); try { client.Initialize(tbHueAppKey.Text); outputtoLog("HUE has been intialized on STARTUP"); } catch (Exception et) { MessageBox.Show(et.ToString()); } } [/code] For the color changer I made it a bit different to see if that would work better as that does register and intialize and loops the color commands which was the most efficient way as that keeps the client 'alive' during the color changes. Will publish the code as soon as the repo is created :) [/QUOTE]
