Unable to re-add accessory in HomeKit #60

Closed oakenwood closed 2 years ago

oakenwood commented 2 years ago

I was able to setup almost everything ( including manual adding the accessory ), but I needed to change something and was disabling one of the accessory, and I'm not able to add it again. I've uninstalled the plugin and installed again, and the Box it self is showing up in HomeKit just fine, and if I add the accessory in Homebridge I can see it says to add it manually to HomeKit, but when I search in HomeKit none of them show up, the wheel is just spinning. Before they show up straight away. I've cleared the Homebridge cache as well, but still no luck. I see the last digits on the accessory is the same as before and when I try to rename then it still shows up as the same name before when telling to manually add them. The accessories is showing up in Homebridge as well. Is there any way to completely rename the accessories? Or is there something else I am missing here?

Problem is now solved. There still was some files left in the /.homebridge/persist folder even after I deleted the plugin and removed the Homebridge cache. So after deleting the AccessoryInfo and the IdentifierCache files for the TV accessories I was able to install the plugin and add them again to HomeKit.
