Controlling channels/pwm lines independently/individually with SetOption15 = 1

[mirko]

Assumption: As far as I remember the old API of controlling lights via PWM commands - SetOption15=OFF - is deprecated. Since I'm having an issue with the new API, which worked with the old one, I allow myself to consider that being a regression.

I use the H801 to control 5 LEDs - not a strip and no colors involved. Just 5 simple plain LEDs which I'd like to dim.
Now, with SetOption=1 I can (almost!) to so, via the individual ChannelX commands. However when I set all 5 channels to 100, 4 is always set to 0.
From my understanding that's due to the logical representation of RGBWxWy, where I can't set Wx and Wy to 100, but have to decide (which makes Wy = 100 -> Wx = 0).

Is there a way to control all 5 LEDs individually with SetOption=1?

Use SetOption37 128 to allow independent settings of RGB and WW, and use Channel<x> to set each PWM value.

If you're adventurous, I have a PR in the works to make it easier to use: https://github.com/s-hadinger/Sonoff-Tasmota/tree/temp_multi_chan
