HyperHDR v19 supports now Hue gradient light strips using new Entertainment API V2, which should also work with other types of Philips lamps. You will need Philips Hue app to configure your lights and the bridge first. For Android you can find it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.philips.lighting.hue2
