Cannot Add bridged accessory, same UUID

[ncosper]

From what I read it seems the UUID of an accessory is pulled from the name. I have an extremely simple setup and for some reason I am getting an error that the accessory has the same UUID as another accessory.
Here is my config
{
"bridge": {
"name": "Homebridge",
"username": "CC:22:3D:E3:CE:30",
"pin": "031-45-154"
},

"platforms": [
{
"platform": "HarmonyHub",
"name": "Outside Theater",
"ip_address": "10.0.0.10"

},{
"platform" : "HarmonyHub",
"name":"Living Room",
"ip_address": "10.0.0.8"
}
]
}

Log when attempting to run homebridge is:

Thanks for the help!

This is a plugin issue. In your case both “Outside Theater” and “Living Room” tries to add an accessory with the name “Watch TV”. Since the plugin uses the name to generate UUID, it creates a collision so the add failed. Please ask the plugin developer to figure out a way to handle the case (like add a name space prefix before the activity name).

Best Wishes,
Tian

ahh... that makes some sense. I'll just rename one of the activities, hopefully that fixes it. thanks

[ncosper]

that did fix that problem. Thank you

[ryanafdahl]

I'm not sure what you meant by " activities " Where would I change this to resolve the conflict?

[antoniosap]
