OMG - never mind, I'm so sorry -.-' works now!

from homebridge-yamaha-avr.

Should be fixed in 3.0.1-beta.1 - can you please test and confirm?

It works. Thanks!

Sounds like the plug-in may be unable to write to the cache directory.

Are you using the default cache directory or have you specified one?

Anything in the log?

from homebridge-yamaha-avr.

Homebridge is installed into /var/lib/homebridge
There exists the folder .yamahaAVR. In the plugin config /var/lib/homebridge/.yamahaAVR is set as cache directory.
If I change HDMI3 to Apple TV the content of /var/lib/homebridge/.yamahaAVR/hdmi3 is:
{"ConfiguredName":"Apple TV","CurrentVisibilityState":0}
I can't see anything in the logs - there should be something like Set input (${input.id}) name to ${name} - or?

from homebridge-yamaha-avr.

Ok - now I see [Yamaha AVR] Set input (audio1) name to TV Audio. And there a lot of [Yamaha AVR] AVR PING { power: 'standby', input: 'hdmi3'
Is it possible the AVR PING resets the naming? Because some names are changed - maybe timing problem?

from homebridge-yamaha-avr.

The PING simply checks for the power state and the active input ID & updates the app in HomeKit if it changes externally (e.g. with the physical AVR remote).

The cache for the main zone should be under a main directory, under .YamahaAVR. Have you tried removing the device (if it's one set up in v2 of the plug-in) and manually adding the new Main Zone device for v3?

from homebridge-yamaha-avr.

There is no maindirectory under .yamahaAVR. I complete deinstalled the plugin and removed the accessory. But still no mainfolder.

from homebridge-yamaha-avr.

After the log output Current main input ... the names / visibility are changed back.

Can you rename/delete the .YamahaAVR folder & reboot Homebridge - see if the directory is recreated?

from homebridge-yamaha-avr.

If I rename the inputs or change visibility and restart the homebridge it shows correct.

from homebridge-yamaha-avr.

The folder .yamahaAVR is recreated with all inputs - but no main folder.

from homebridge-yamaha-avr.

I think I've managed to replicate the issue. Appears we may be restoring the input name from a stale cache when HomeKit requests an updated name. Fix incoming.

As for the missing main cache directory - this isn't created if the cacheDirectory has been set in the config - a fix for this will also be be included (you'll should be able to simply move your existing cache data into this directory once updated).

Downlaoded the beta version as well - could not change devices (like airplay, tv or so) anymore, just seeing "on, on, on, on, on, on, ..." in HomeKit
