[BUG] Device is discoverers every day newly.

[DarthSonic]

Describe the bug
I put my Sky Q Receiver to deep standby every night. Every next start the device gets re-discovered by integration. When configuring it says device already configured and dismisses. Configured device is running without problems anyway.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior: I guess it is problem with deep standby.

Expected behavior
No re-duscover after configured device once.

Component versions

1. What version of SkyQ component are you using?

Latest stable.

Your configuration
UI

Either - Your configuration from the options dialogue
Cannot open it on Android device.

2. What was the last version where the problem was not shown?

[RogerSelwyn]

Or if you go back to v2.10.x does it still happen.?

[DarthSonic]

I did not use any previous version.

[RogerSelwyn]

Should be fixed with this release - https://github.com/RogerSelwyn/Home_Assistant_SkyQ_MediaPlayer/releases/tag/v2.11.1

[DarthSonic]

Unfortunately still the same issue.

[RogerSelwyn]

Ok, I may have to give you a custom version with extra debugging. I’ll look at it in a while, maybe tomorrow.

[RogerSelwyn]

How come you have three rediscoveries in one night?

Can you provide the detailed log entries, rather than that summary.

[RogerSelwyn]

Normally deep sleep is from about 2am to 5am. This suggests it is doing it between 00:00 and 13:00. Does it keep discovering during the day?

[DarthSonic]

I put my device in deep standby everytime. I set to Eco Mode. I so not worry about that 3 minute start time each time I start the box.

[RogerSelwyn]

OK

[DarthSonic]

So my device was going to deep standby at night around 00:30 and around 13:00 today.

Are you able to look in .storage/core.config_entries for the skyq entry. It should look like this:

      {
        "entry_id": "85e60b553c7e9acab917f6df8804aae0",
        "version": 2,
        "domain": "skyq",
        "title": "Sky Q",
        "data": {
          "host": "192.168.1.199",
          "name": "Sky Q"
        },
        "options": {},
        "pref_disable_new_entities": false,
        "pref_disable_polling": false,

        "unique_id": "GBR06270869999",
        "disabled_by": null
      }

Can you post here.

[RogerSelwyn]

I think you may need to swap lines 108/109 in config_flow.py so they look like this:

        self._async_abort_entries_match({CONF_HOST: host})
        self._abort_if_unique_id_configured()

[RogerSelwyn]

I suspect it is a race condition where the box is announcing itself via SSDP before it is ready to be connected to. Ignore last post, change _async_setuniqueid to look like the below in config_flow.py.

    async def _async_setuniqueid(self, host):
        self._async_abort_entries_match({CONF_HOST: host})
        remote = await self.hass.async_add_executor_job(SkyQRemote, host)
        if not remote.device_setup:
            raise CannotConnect()

        if remote.device_type in UNSUPPORTED_DEVICES:
            _LOGGER.warning(
                "W0010 - Device type - %s - is not supported", remote.device_type
            )

        device_info = await self.hass.async_add_executor_job(
            remote.get_device_information
        )

        await self.async_set_unique_id(
            device_info.countryCode
            + "".join(e for e in device_info.serialNumber.casefold() if e.isalnum())
        )

        self._abort_if_unique_id_configured()

Changed that. Will report tomorrow if issue still exists.

[DarthSonic]

It is working with the change to _async_setuniqueid

[RogerSelwyn]

Good. I had the same rediscovery last night, but I hadn’t spilled that change. I’ll do a new version tomorrow.

[DarthSonic]

And to be able to power on the Sky Q box still using media player card, I use this automation:

alias: Sky Q Power On
description: ""
trigger:
  - platform: event
    event_type: call_service
    event_data:
      domain: media_player
      service: turn_on
      service_data:
        device_id:
          - 48af9acf47ace8a3ba3c0cfe9dd0c5b0
    alias: When Sky Q is turned on
condition:
  - condition: or
    conditions:
      - condition: device
        device_id: 48af9acf47ace8a3ba3c0cfe9dd0c5b0
        domain: media_player
        entity_id: media_player.sky_q
        type: is_off
      - condition: state
        entity_id: media_player.sky_q
        state: unavailable
action:
  - service: script.skyq_toggle
    data: {}
mode: single

What you need is a script "script.skyq_toggle" that is doing the power toggle. For me it is a broadlink ir device.

Maybe some example for your documentation when others want to use deep standby / Eco Mode.

P. S. would have loved to "buy you a beer" but it does not accept my credit card. 🙁

[RogerSelwyn]

😀 no worries
