An App to Control Your Elgato Key Lights on Linux



I have a set of Elgato key lights that I use when filming and I love them: they’re very nice lights that give great coverage and colour.
Part of what makes these particular lights practical and popular is their wireless control. In fact, you can only control these lights wirelessly. The problem with that? Eh, Elgato only make the ‘Elgato Control Center’ software for Windows and macOS (though are mobile apps for Android and iOS too).
Since I typically use my phone to wirelessly control my Panasonic LUMIX camera (which requires connecting to a custom local wireless network the camera creates) I can’t use my phone to also control the Elgato lights (as you need to be on the same wireless network as them).
Open source to the rescue!
