    @Xorinzor That Ikea device will only work with Ikea devices and some HUE ones.
    As far as other products its hit and miss, again for the same reason we stated before.
     
    The most "universal" box seems to be the Xiaomi MiHome Gateway and has an active community.
    Nevermind its Xiaomi and Ikea only supported, other devices "might" work.

    Zigbee is the RF standard, but it does "nothing" on its own. On top of that is a protocol layer that is different for each manufacturer.
    Basically either you use an off the shelf system that has an API you can use, but I don't know of any that will work without their cloud services, or you get yourself the RF interface and build your own thing.
    There might be systems you can reflash with open source firmware you have more control of, but those I looked at all used wifi on ESP chips rather than Zigbee.

    Xorinzor got a reaction from dalekphalm in Call me jealous, rude, ignorant, whatever. I don't thinks it's fair.   
    If someone isn't a dedicated LMG watcher/fan, I'd agree.
     
    However, I don't think its fair that just because someone isnt active on the forum they therefor shouldn't be able to participate in the giveaways, even if they watch every single video from every channel from LMG that is released.

    So AMD's new graphics cards are here, and they are pretty sick... But what's even more sick than hearing about a new graphics card? Owning one for yourself!

    Aw yeah man, we are giving away one Polaris 10 video card and one Polaris 11 video card thanks to our good friends over at AMD.
     
    So, how do you enter to win one of these fine graphics cards?
     
    1. Post a comment below telling us what graphics card you're using in your rig and why you want an upgrade to AMD's Polaris lineup. The two winners will be selected at random, so no, the content of your comment doesn't REALLY matter, but this is more fun than seeing 800 posts of "I want it" or "gibe nao pls." One comment (entry) per user.
     
    2. Check back here in about a week when the names of our two winners will be added to the OP (giveaway execution is an art not a science people, so I apologize in advance if winners aren't announced in exactly one week).
     
    3. Check your inbox here on the forum to make sure you didn't miss it. Our winners' usernames will be added to the OP here, so if you have any question about the legitimacy of a congratulatory message regarding this giveaway, please be sure to check back here and see if your name has been added.
     
    And, while this isn't a requirement, feel free to give our friends over at @AMDRadeon on Twitter a follow.
     
    Winners will be PMed from this account on the forum. Please do not consider winner messages from any other user in regards to this giveaway.
     
    This giveaway is worldwide with no age restriction.
     
    Best of luck to all!!
