Hello All

After multiple HOOBS issues and a rebuild of my server, I have finally got this plugin moving forward again.

My problem however is that even with the same config.json (as far as I can tell), I cannot see the TV in the nearby accessories :(

Very frustrating as it worked "out of the box" with minimal tweeting!

My config.json looks like this:

{ "accessories": [], "platforms": [ { "bridge": { "name": "Samsung Tizen Bridge", "username": "", "port": 51846, "pin": "" }, "description": "This is an example configuration file.", "platforms": [ { "platform": "SamsungTizen", "name": "Samsung Tizen Bridge" } ], "devices": [ { "name": "Lounge TV", "ip": "10.10.21.82", "mac": "10:2b:41:27:c0:75", "api_key": "", "device_id": "", "uuid": "A6", "inputs": [ { "type": "input", "name": "Apple", "value": "HDMI1" }, { "type": "input", "name": "du", "value": "HDMI2" } ], "switches": [ { "name": "Mute", "mute": true }, { "name": "Power", "power": true }, { "name": "Source", "command": "KEY_SOURCE" } ] } ] } ] }

==========================================

Debug Log looks fine (full log attached)...

Any great ideas on what I am doing wrong, and how I can get back on track, would be much appreciated.

Hi! Unfortunately I cannot assist you on Hoobs! The plugin is designed for Homebridge.

Do you see this message in the logs when you start the server?

[2/5/2023, 8:02:49 PM] Lounge TV is running on port xxxxxx.
[2/5/2023, 8:02:49 PM] Please add [Lounge TV] manually in Home app. Setup Code: xxxxxx

Also please never post api_key and device_id on the public internet again. With those keys anyone can control your device and changing them would require you to create a new Samsung account!

Thanks for your response, my smart home project is a rapidly evolving thing and I have in fact moved my HOOBs devices over to a homebridge server on an old Mac mini. The plugin appears to be working fine now after re-installation but worth keeping in mind that it did work in HOOBs originally too.

Thanks for your security comment too.
