Since the Matter protocol is new, can I use a smart bulb with matter in xlights.

I want to use the new GE Smart Bulb (it uses matter), to be controlled by xlights. I would like to set it up as a controller, is this something that can be done or is it in a future upgrade.

Thank you in advance,
Skipper

Simple answer is no.

You could create a separate controller that receives e1.31/Artnet/DDP and send out the Matter commands. You would have to code that efficiently to keep up with a the type of effects we usually use in xLights.
