Open vaenror opened 3 years ago

vaenror commented 3 years ago

Hello, I'm a noob. I have 0 knowledge with python or programming. I'm using a Homebridge and want to add my Philips TV (OLED854/12). I installed the homebridge plugin, and now i'm trying to get the credentials to add the to the homebridge plugin.

How do i fetch the credentials? Do i have to run something in the homebridge command prompt or can i also do this on windows? I always get a syntax Error on the command line in homebridge when trying anything. Please send help v.v

When i enter in homebridge console: pip install -r requirements.txt it says Errno2 no such file or directory
