icue-ambilight VS cue-sdk

I use this one : https://github.com/augustinbegue/icue-ambilight

It does if you have the LS100 strips or LT100 towers, you can also achieve this using 3rd party software like icue-ambilight( free) by using a Node Pro and rgb strips or SignalRGB ( paid subscription) which is more versatile and supports different brands of RGB.

Currently icue only uses it in game integration or Video mode in the LS100 and LT100 but you can use 3rd party soft to achieve in on all the hardware, use SignalRGB or icue-ambilight ambilight its easy to setup but it only does that while SignalRGB has lots of other option.

Looks promising! Isn't there this program which does this already? https://github.com/Tagueo/icue-ambilight

I use this one with iCue; https://github.com/Tagueo/icue-ambilight/releases . You could maybe use something like OpenRGB to sync with other brands of RGB

Depends on the hardware. Razer has Chroma https://developer.razer.com/chroma/ Corsair has CUE SDK https://corsairofficial.github.io/cue-sdk/ MSI has Mystic Light - It uses ambient link to hook up to games but you might have to apply to get access to it.

The corsair cue-sdk is c/c++ and available on github. There is also a wrapper someone made for dotnet if you prefer c#.

Yes, but you have to program it yourself: https://github.com/CorsairOfficial/cue-sdk

If you are familiar with coding, you may check out the SDK https://corsairofficial.github.io/cue-sdk/

unless you're saying that for some reason, profiles executed by the utility do not behave the same as profiles executed by control applet. far as I can tell by the way their protocols work, most recent client takes precedence until it relinquishes control, or you might have to manually set priority.
