i am having weird issue with this plugin, after some time the plugin seems to be unresponsive where turning on/off from homebridge/homekit doesnt do anything..

homebridge reported the tv is off evethough the tv is currently on.

restarting the child bridge and the issue gone.

TV model : 50UP7750PTB
WebOS Version : 6.32-425

not sure how to produce log my homebridge already set to debug mode

this is the only log appears

Hi,

I'am having a very similar issue (although not 100% sure it is the same).
Plugin becomes unresponsive after some time (maybe after TV has been switched off for the night, but maybe sooner than that). Restarting Homebridge fixes the problem.

When it has stopped working, I can see occasionally a socket related error (but not systematically at each button press) :
[02/11/2023 11:48:37] [LgWebOsTv] Device: 192.168.1.128 LG webOS TV Homebridge, set Mute error: Socket not connected.

And while the TV is ON, no error is displayed although TV state seem stuck :

If I restart Homebridge, everything works as expected :

I have a bunch of other plugins (no particular network issue) but I haven't found what could be the issue with my TV.

Thanks for your help !

When it has stopped working, I can see occasionally a socket related error (but not systematically at each button press) :
[02/11/2023 11:48:37] [LgWebOsTv] Device: 192.168.1.128 LG webOS TV Homebridge, set Mute error: Socket not connected.

This is correct, if You try send command to TV and socket is not connected then the error appear in log.

Regarding plugin stop responding this can be local specific issue, I have in my environment 65G6V, 48CX, 48C3, 49SK8500, 32LM6300 and not observe described issue. Plugin stop responding issue in most cases is HB problem and local environment. If you can record this issue with debug mode enabled then will be very helpful to find what is wrong.

Thanks for your suggestion !
Here is what I found with Debug mode right after its activation (see bottom line) :

}

Right after HB restart it took some time for the accessories to work (I use "Mute" for my tests) so maybe this is only a "glitch" / transient effect.

I will check for other unexpected messages in the coming days.

Hi,

Here is a few extracts from the log.
The latest heartbeat exchanges before TV has been switched-off :

....

Then, the only plugin related messages are the following that were repeated regularly during the night (no more heartbeat) :

But nothing when I switched the TV ON (and in particular, no more "log cluster" as shown above).

While going to accessory tab in HB (forcing some kind of update I guesss), I can only see a new log cluster, with exactly the same content as shown above (telling the TV is OFF, mute ON and so on). I searched for socket related messages but strictly none can be found... Until I forced an action (mute) from HB accessory tab :

[03/11/2023 10:28:03] [LgWebOsTv] Device: 192.168.1.128 LG webOS TV Homebridge, set Mute error: Socket not connected.

I'm not clear on the precise moment thing started to go wrong since there were no error messages until I forced the use of an accessory.

Any idea ?

Many thanks

Send and receive heart beat is only if plugin is connected to tv. After TV switch to of the socket is closed in log is reported socket closed and next start Connect to tv again. If connection is not possible then reported error in the log and this is correct. As long as the TV i not available in the network plugin try to Connect every some seconds and this need to be visible during whole time when TV is Off. In your log this action is stopped, so here is the problem in your case. This problem doesn’t exist in my environment is very difficult check what is wrong. Check please installed node- min v18 and Homebridge min v1.6.

I will put today later new version with experimental changes to fix this issue.

I recently (last week) upgraded to node v20.9.0 and HB is up to date with v1.6.1.
Right before, I believe I was in node v18 and the behavior was the same.

Hi !

With the beta I experience an error that makes HB crashing. If I roll back to previous stable version it works again (no crash). I'm pretty sure that at the first restart after update I hadn't this error but I think I only toggle an accessory visibility and since then I couldn't get rid of this error (tried to unistall & reinstall the plugin, restart my RPi, ...). Here is the error I met :

[03/11/2023 19:27:08] Error: Accessory LG webOS TV HB experienced an address collision.

Indeed, no more crash :-).
At the moment, I cannot see any exported accessory from the child bridge (I added it again under Home app/HomeKit).
I can see and use the accessories (Volume slider, ...) under HB, but not from Home app (that identifies this new bridge but having no accessory). I started from beta 40 (I hadn't no accessory at al even from HB) and now I'm with beta 43.

Maybe I do something wrong (not very familiar with child bridges). If you have any advice for that.

I can nevertheless verify that the plugin don't die after TV being switched Off (from HB GUI)

Many thanks !

You need add the accessory itself to the HomeKit not the bridge.

Wow ! Works great ! Thank you @grzegorz914
I would just add a precision : the PIN (or QR code) to be used is the one of the "main" bridge (I have been searching for the child bridge, but haven't found so I tried the only one mentioned in config file).

Now I can wait and test to see if it passes the night ;-)

Thanks again for your patience ;-)
