Hey there,

I have been using the app and right after I add my zigbee lights and connect my hue+ ambilight tv it says no bridge. While it connects after I click the link button, it even makes my lights flicker. I am currently using HA with diyhue.

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, what do you see in the logs during pairing? The hue app works normal?

I have the log file in my github. It says the time zone not found in the begin, I fixed that at like 23:30 (while checking it it said that until late 12:10. Later I fixed that the port was 85 instead of 80.

your tv is sending something that does not work

`code 400, message Bad request syntax ('{')`

can you enable debug and send the log again?

in the log i see there is Entertainment mode operations from ip 192.168.178.116.

you tv have ip 192.168.178.24?

That should have some more, and im 99% sure the ip is 192.168.178.24. And my bridge/ha is 192.168.178.100, and 192.168.178.13 is my pc.

so my tv connects to my bridge after I click link, then it changes into: none. Its very weird

i think i found the problem.

`2025-08-02 14:25:41,832 - werkzeug - 225 - INFO - 192.168.178.24 - - [02/Aug/2025 14:25:41] "e[35me[1mNone /api/ce03de206f9b11f0b4c2e45f01ca7f73/config HTTP/0.9e[0m" HTTPStatus.BAD_REQUEST -`

the tv is sending http/0.9, this means the tv is using http version 0.9 and diyhue runs on http/1.1.

i will see i i can fix this.

is your tv uptodate?

hmm http/0.9 is long deprecated(http/0.9 was released in 1991, http/1.1 was released in 1997) it would be strange if a device from 2018 is still using 30 year old tech…

i can not replicate your error, my ambilights work good(43PUS7303 from 2018 and 50PUS7354 from 2019)

any chance you live in the Netherlands?

The Hue app can switch its active bridge after you pair diyHue; that doesn’t mean the physical Hue Bridge was erased. Open Settings \> Hue Bridges and select or add the Philips bridge again. If it’s missing from that list, check that it’s powered and on the same LAN, then rediscover it.
