Problem with two LG TV

[michelebossa]

Hi i have a problem to use these plugin with two LG TV at moment i have configured both but when i use the power button or the volume control in some case the action go to another television configured.
For example power off the TV on kitchen but will go down the TV on the dinner room.
I think there is the owerwrite of configuration during the process on homebridge.

My configuration.

{
  "accessory": "webos3",
  "name": "TV Salone",
  "ip": "192.168.1.105",
  "mac": "3C:CD:93:78:B7:ED",
  "keyFile": "/home/pi/.homebridge/lgtvKeyFile",
  "pollingEnabled": true
},
{
  "accessory": "webos3",
  "name": "TV Cucina",
  "ip": "192.168.1.106",
  "mac": "3C:CD:93:9F:D6:7B",
  "keyFile": "/home/pi/.homebridge/tvcucina/lgtvKeyFile",
  "pollingEnabled": true
}

There is some action to do to handle these situation?
Thanks.

Hi,
thanks for the report. That is a strange problem, i will check if i can fix this issue somehow, but the problem is that i don't have 2 TVs so i am not sure if i will be able too.

[michelebossa]

If you want i can do a test for the fix

[merdok]

Did this ever get fixed? I have bought another TV and don’t want to add it and mess up the other one

[merdok]

I am experiencing issues with my RPi since some time now... I first need to stabilize my setup again, after that i will have a look at it.

Confirming this error. Can't manage more than one TV.

[merdok]

I will see what i can do about it...

Any luck buddy? I have 3 TVs I want to get working

[merdok]

Sorry, i am still trying to get my Pi back to work with the RPi guys. I upgraded to a 3B+ and since then i have endless issues... As soon as my setup is stable again i will check it out...

[merdok]

Should be fixed with latest release, could somebody please try it and let me know? Please note that i renamed the package to homebridge-webos-tv, so you need to install this new package and adjust your config.json

Hello! Thanks for your work and attention to this issue. Before I try the fix, one question, I had altered my config.json to have two different keyfiles one for each TV is this ok or should I just use one keyfile? Also can we remove the old package once we install the new one?

[merdok]

Yes, you need different keyfiles for each TV. And yes, you can remove the old package after installing this new one.

Hi Thanks for the new version for me now the problem it is fixed :)

[m11rphy]

Can you give an example config for 2 TVs?
How would you remove the old package?

Hi,
Example of my configuration
{
"accessory": "webostv",
"name": "TV Salone",
"ip": "192.168.1.105",
"mac": "3C:CD:93:78:B7:ED",
"keyFile": "/home/pi/.homebridge/lgtvKeyFile",
"pollingEnabled": true
},
{
"accessory": "webostv",
"name": "TV Cucina",
"ip": "192.168.1.106",
"mac": "3C:CD:93:9F:D6:7B",
