[BUG] Command `lightbar on` overrides command `lightbar [0-255]` -> Remains ONLY BLUE

[MartinVonReichenberg]

As mentioned, dualsensectl lightbar on overrides dualsensectl lightbar 255 255 255 255 -> WHITE colour this makes changing colors and brightness on the controller impossible . . . The only way to change colors is to use dualsensectl lightbar off and then dualsensectl lightbar [0-255] ................... dualsensectl lightbar 0 0 0 0 turns off the lightbar too, but in another sense.

• My DualSense version: 0307

Does this help?

I do not entirely understand ...

Did you remove lines 480-488:

{
    struct dualsense_output_report rp;
    uint8_t rbuf[DS_OUTPUT_REPORT_BT_SIZE];
    dualsense_init_output_report(ds, &rp, rbuf);

    uint8_t max_brightness = 255;

    rp.common->valid_flag1 = DS_OUTPUT_VALID_FLAG1_LIGHTBAR_CONTROL_ENABLE;
    rp.common->lightbar_red = brightness * red / max_brightness;

Then moved from 479 to 488:

static int command_lightbar3(struct dualsense *ds, uint8_t red, uint8_t green, u

And added 492-493:

rp.common->valid_flag2 = DS_OUTPUT_VALID_FLAG2_LIGHTBAR_SETUP_CONTROL_ENABLE;
rp.common->lightbar_setup = DS_OUTPUT_LIGHTBAR_SETUP_LIGHT_ON;

Because I added 492-493:

rp.common->valid_flag2 = DS_OUTPUT_VALID_FLAG2_LIGHTBAR_SETUP_CONTROL_ENABLE;
rp.common->lightbar_setup = DS_OUTPUT_LIGHTBAR_SETUP_LIGHT_ON;

After 479-490:

static int command_lightbar3(struct dualsense *ds, uint8_t red, uint8_t green, uint8_t blue, uint8_t brightness)
{
    struct dualsense_output_report rp;
    uint8_t rbuf[DS_OUTPUT_REPORT_BT_SIZE];
    dualsense_init_output_report(ds, &rp, rbuf);

    uint8_t max_brightness = 255;

    rp.common->valid_flag1 = DS_OUTPUT_VALID_FLAG1_LIGHTBAR_CONTROL_ENABLE;
    rp.common->lightbar_red = brightness * red / max_brightness;
    rp.common->lightbar_green = brightness * green / max_brightness;
    rp.common->lightbar_blue = brightness * blue / max_brightness;

• And it does not work, the lightbar remains either turned off or on and in blue color only . . .

Please send the fully changed file main.c as .txt in the attachment so I can see it more clearly . . .

That patch doesn't work.

It needs to query the current state (=color) to avoid overwriting previously set values.
