Webhook Delay #4

Closed ryanschmidt closed 6 years ago

ryanschmidt commented 6 years ago

Is it normal to see a 3-5 second delay on the webhook response? I was using another npm package that polls the server but then found this which makes a lot more sense (webhook vs polling). Before I try something else, I was just curious if the webhook delay was common since this is my first time using them for anything. I am running Homebridge on a different machine than Plex. Could that be the issue?

@ryanschmidt my response is instant, so the webhook is defiantly a faster solution than polling, don't have much insight on what might be the culprit in causing your delay.

Yeah, I'm not sure what would be causing that, it's pretty much instant for me (even when on different machines). Are the two machines on the same network? And are you using a local IP address for the webhook in the Plex settings? And what client are you using?

Hey guys! Sorry for not reporting back sooner. My delay is maybe 1-2 seconds and I don't even notice it anymore. Thanks for the great little utility!
