Can't connect to my TV (anymore)? #99

Hello,

for a few weeks my homebridge is not able anymore to connect to my device. I was using it now for more than a year and it used to work fine.

Now after I figured out, that it does not work anymore, i wanted to review the settings of the homebridge plugin. I don't get to see any settings. When I click on the plugin settings I only see this hint message:

The Viera TV at 192.168.178.45 could not be edited [...]

So I already checked the network settings of the TV - it's available under this IP address. I already tried to remove and reinstall the plugin, but still same problem. I'm not sure if this problem appeared after the Software Update of my TV.

image On this screenshot you can see the error message of the homebridge plugin, that tells that it's not able to connect to the TV. The settings on TV are all fine, too.

I already tried to restart the TV by powering it off and unplug it from the power source and I also reconfigured the network settings. Nothing helped for now...

Any ideas?

Currently used Software Version on my Panasonic TV (TX-65HXN978) is: 3.069

Okay I already figured it out myself. Somehow it works now and I was able to configure it. I don't know what made it work now, but I choosed the function on my TV to delete all connections and some minutes after that I was able to configure it.
