[C410] intensity value goes out of range

[acolombier]

Description

On the C410, the intensity level seems to only be going in the range 1-5, however it seems that the defined range is the project is 1-100 (source). This is leading to error when setting out of bound level value, and make the user experience very poor since only the first 5% of the slider can be used, leading to poor precision.

Reproduction Steps

• Go to device
• Locate the Spotlight Intensity setting
• Adjust the slider

Expected behavior

Intensity level should gradually change through the whole slider range

If applicable, add error logs.

N/A

Yes

Additional information

I'd be glad to add a config setting if you would be happy with this fix, or alternatively we could add a map of device's known range, and default to the current 100 in order not to break any other device

Please post debug logs for C410. If possible we need to implement a fix dynamically.

We need to find out if we already have the information for min-max available in the getMost call (therefore the ask for debug logs). If not, we will need to investigate the traffic going to camera from tapo app and see if there is any method we can use to find this range.

I am not looking for errors, I am looking for debug messages. If you enable debug messages you can see the response from the camera. Please post full debug logs here.

[acolombier]

Here are the logs - do you need me to restart HA after enabling to see handshake/service discovery logs?

[JurajNyiri]

Logs provided are not sufficient. Please post more, it needs to contain log with "getCamData". Usually this happens every update interval, or after restart of HA.

FYI, I also get an error on the C100 as it only has 5 possible intensity settings too, if you go to 6 or above you get an error.
