In the past I added some scenes in de devices tab from domoticz and is where also scene's in domoticz. Now they are shown as switches in domoticz with an on and off and not as scene. Does someknow know what is going wrong here? They also don't turn of when I switch between scenes. Does someknow what I'm doing wrong because it worked in the past?

I have never known hue scenes to show in the domoticz scenes page. Form some reason I always had trouble adding hue scenes from the devices tab. Normal scenes would work ok, but any with fade in etc didn't work once added - so I tend to create a virtual switch and trigger the scene on the hue hub with a bash script..... it I digress.
It shouldn't matter that the switch doesn't turn off, as you can still turn it on, even if it's already on. But it may make more sense to click on edit on the switch, and change the switch type to "push on button"
How that helps.

Oke thanks, i'm going to do it with the script know. But I don't really understand why adding of hue scenes directly was removed. But at the end, is works, better dan no integration :)
