TV appears in Homebridge but not Homekit.

The TV appears in the Homebridge accessories and works but it doesn't appear on Homekit. In the Homebridge hub on the home app it doesn't appear. I have tried to add it as an accessory but it doesn't appear.

humm, that's odd - can you try to remove your Homekit bridge from homekit and add it again to check if issue persists ?

thanks in advance!

Hi, i just set up my first homebridge on my raspberry and i can also confirm the problem described by @ufatz. My TV shows up in the homebridge under 'devices' but won't appear under Home-App in iOS / Home-Widget. I already tried to remove the homebridge from my home in the Home app and readded it, but it did not work out. It's still not there.

Thanks, patrick

UPDATE / EDIT: I just found a log message in homebridge, that says i need to add the TV manually by setup code. [31/12/2020, 18:18:41] Fernseher is running on port 32887. [31/12/2020, 18:18:41] Please add [Fernseher] manually in Home app. Setup Code: XXX-XX-XXX

So i added the device manually to my Home in the iOS Home app. It worked. Very nice. I don't know if it was intended that the device needs to get registered manually, but if so, i can live with that :D

Thank you anyway...

@jeatrexs

Thanks for reporting! so, after adding the homekit bridge to Home App, when you do an "Add Accessory" the TV does not appear there / isn't discovered ? Could you please provide the homebridge startup logs ? something is going wrong ... also, please provide data about your homebridge / network setup - OS / arch / versions / etc.

Hi @AntonioMeireles,

sorry, my bad. I already edited my last post. I thought, the device comes up automatically, because it was like that with other plugins. Sorry i'm still a beginner.

Thank you!

@jeatrexs

glad it's sorted :-) it has to be that way - only way to support lucky users with multiple TVs :-) Happy new Year!

AntonioMeireles commented 3 years ago

reopening until we hear from @ufatz which may have a different issue.

jeatrexs commented 3 years ago

I understand. Thank you a lot, Happy new year to you also!

@ufatz here So the weirdness continues. As you suggested I have removed the home bridge and reinstalled it in Home. When I tried to add accessory the TV does not appear. However if I ask Siri to turn the TV on, it does! And also off! I just don’t have a button for it in the Home app?!

Setup Payload: X-HM://0024YZHOQ313B Enter this code with your HomeKit app on your iOS device to pair with Homebridge:

Hey together, I have the same problem since last year like @ufatz . It startet from the moment where i once deleted my TV manually in homebridge. After that it appears as before in homebridge. But it is not possible to readd that TV by the way using the automatic way in HomeKit „add device“.

Reinstalling the plugin, changing the config, readding the bridge to HomeKit, deactivating and reactivating the remote option in tv settings didn‘t help. The latest way i tried was to add a second Tv with another name - same problem here.

Thanks so far

AntonioMeireles commented 3 years ago

@ufatz looks like somehow a local cosmetic issue in IOS side (as the plugin is actually recognized) ... could you please try to remove you homebridge bridge from ios' home.app and add it again to see if it makes a change ?

@cschrone remove your homebridge bridge from home.app in IOS and then add it again. Please check if this is your issue.

thanks both for your patience!

I'm seeing the same issue - accessories in Homebridge but not Home app. Deleted my bridge from iOS and re-added to Home. Still no accessories from this plug-in in Home. Other plug-in accessories show up in Home so does not seem to be a Homebridge wide issue.

AntonioMeireles commented 3 years ago

@msbc42, @ufatz

what homebridge version ? 1.2.5 or 1.1.7 ?

cschrone commented 3 years ago

As mentioned before i already tried this solution. Like @msbc42 said the problem seems to be somewhere else. I tested it on two Panasonic TVs. Once on a FZW804 and now on a HZW984. After removing the FZW804 manually in home.app it never appeared in the add-Assistant or somewhere in the app. Only in Homebridge. By adding the HZW984 it was no Problem to add it. Still till the moment i again removed it because there were some problem with renaming.

I‘m using 1.2.5

ufatz commented 3 years ago

I am running 1.1.7 Removing homebridge from Home App does not hangs anything. It still cannot find the tv as an accessory to add.

I am also on 1.1.7

AntonioMeireles commented 3 years ago

could you both give a try to homebridge-vieramatic@2.0.15 that i just published to see if it makes a difference ?

thanks in advance and a great weekend!

cschrone commented 3 years ago

Good evening, I found a way that solved my problem. It’s a cache problem.

With the following steps i solved it by using homebridge-config-ui-x by oznu

  1. Open Web UI and go to homebridge settings
  2. Select in the area reset something like „ Decouple bridges / cameras / TV / external accessories“
  3. Choose your tv and delete it.
  4. Restart homebridge
  5. Go to home app and add new device. It should appear like expected.

Please try and let me know. Before that i updated the plug-in by @AntonioMeireles I‘m not sure if that has something to do with.

Great rest weekend!

msbc42 commented 3 years ago

2.0.15 Plug-in did not solve the issue on it's own. After updating still no accessory in Home. Cleared the cache as suggested by @cschrone and was able to add the accessory in Home app.

Should there be a seperate accessory for changing Volume as there is in Homebridge?

AntonioMeireles commented 3 years ago

Closing, as things now well understood, and root cause not in plugin side.

please reopen if somehow, previous paragraph wrong.

thanks all for your patience
