Devices working well, but I cannot see the remote option

raulfunkie commented 4 months ago

Describe the bug I have set up the devices correctly (they show up on HomeKit and I can turn them on and off, change input, etc on Homekit). But I cannot get the remote with the extra buttons (I set them up on the config) on the CC Remote app.

Expected behavior Where should I be seeing the remote? Is there any specific measure I need to take on the config for the remote to show up?

Log output If applicable, add homebridge log output to help explain your problem or copy paste it into a text file and attach it if the log is more than 10 lines. Make sure to set "debug" to true in config.js so plugins will output debug log

Device (please complete the following information):

Name: It’s a JVC TV and a Fire Stick 4K

Additional context

I can manipulate the devices using ADB commands, so that should work.
I use the terminal to send the adb commands to each of the devices and they work ok there.
Setting up the buttons on config.json has been a hit or miss cause I cannot see where the Remote appears for each of the devices.
On the Remote app I only see TV.
Could this be relate to me being part of two Homes in Homekit? 🤔

Can you copy paste your config.json here?

The Android device should appear in Remote app regardless there are more than 1 Homes in HomeKit.

If you’re not sure with the remote configuration, just delete the remote configuration part from config.json, the plugins will use default value. Or you can edit the config using HomeBridge config UI X with visual representation of the button.

It looks fine, albeit some typo at playpauseobutton should be playpausebutton, and wrong format "poweron": "adb -s 192.168.4.39:5555 shell input keyevent 26", should be "poweron": "shell adb -s 192.168.4.39:5555 shell input keyevent 26".

When you restart the homebridge-adb plugins, does homebridge-adb log contain any error or any unusual output?

raulfunkie commented 4 months ago

@dwaan nope, I don’t see anything out of the ordinary in the logs. I can share them if you’d like too!

Edit: fixed those errors, and still no remote :/

dwaan commented 4 months ago

Right now, I still can’t recreate the problem, so fix will take awhile.

hi i just stumbled across this. As I had trouble with the control centre remote of other plugins and was searching for related issues.

I recently tried other plugins to add tvs to HomeKit. And for all of them the remote widget or control centre remote does not show the tvs with ios17. My testing got me as far as that on ios16 the remote widget shows the tvs. But on ios17 the remote does not show the tvs.

Perhaps this is helpful to you otherwise just ignore me.

Thank you for the info. I think it’s iOS bug perhaps? As my iPhone and iPad both shown the remote normally with the latest iOS and iPadOS..

crbyxwpzfl commented 3 months ago

Thats real good to hear thank you! So it is not intentionally removed by apple. edit. after a settings reset of my phone the remote shows up.
