I know your plugin is not tested with the HT-ST5000, but I checked on the URI terms and confirmed on the Sony Developer that the HT-ST5000 is supported.

I am attempting to install the plugin on a hoobs box.

This is my config:

{
        "accessory": "receiver",
        "plugin_map": {
            "plugin_name": "homebridge-sony-audio-control",
            "index": 0
        },
        "name": "Soundbar",
        "enableNetworkStandby": true,
        "ip": "192.168.4.125",
        "inputs": [
            {
                "name": "Input TV",
                "uri": "extInput:tv"
            }
        ]
    }

This is the issue I am seeing in the logs after trying to save the plugin.

7/17/2020, 5:14:40 PM Got SIGTERM, shutting down Bridge...

I am planning to add soundfield options that I looked up on the Sony developer site. However, I wanted to see if I could get the basic functionality of the plugin running first.

Any ideas what might be happening? Is the mute feature on the HT-ST5000 different than the receiver you created the plugin for?

I cannot seem to find the specific values that are allowed in the soundFields[] array. There's no mention of it in the official API

I noticed the Volume control (via light bulb) in Home.app is not always updating.

Also, if I try to add a volume control limit in the plugin configuration (from a Hoobs setup), it puts the plugin into a bad state and the soundbar stops responding in the Home.app. The console shows an issue with being able to call getVolume ()

I had to restore from a Hoobs backup to get the plugin back into a good state.

I dont think this is necessarily new to v2.4.1

Also, it is not a huge deal to me, since I use the HDMI-CEC anything to control the volume from my Apple TV and normal TV remote. But wanted to bring to your attention.

I am leaving the port field blank and letting it use the default of 10000. It seems to work most of the time, but some times I do see issues where the web socket client can't connect.

How do I get the port number of my device? In this case, my device is a HT-ST5000 soundbar.

This isn't a bug, I am just trying to understand better.

I’m trying to update to the latest version of the plugin on my Hoobs setup, however it is failing to install the plugin.

I’m using your plugin with a Sony HT-ST5000 sound bar. I mainly just use it to switch the sound field settings, and v2.3.0 works really well for that (thanks!). The on/off doesnt work well. So, I wanted to try your latest plugin, but haven’t been able to get it to install yet.

Let me know if you need any other info, or if I can help debug further.

I had everything working really well with the plugin. However, when I updated the Ring plugin on my Hoobs box today, I noticed my soundbar stopped responding in the Home.app

I am currently running v2.4.3 of the plugin.

Whenever I try to interact with the soundbar in Home.app, I see the following error in the Hoobs log output:
getVolume() failed: Cannot read property 'volume' of undefined

The only strange thing I can find with the soundbar is that in the System Information, it now says:
Provisioning Server Connection Status : Failed

So, my only guess is my soundbar cannot access the Sony Developer API? Is that possible?

I tried restarting everything (Hoobs box, network, soundbar). I tried restoring to several different versions of the plugin and backing up my Hoobs box to an earlier version that had been working. Nothing is fixing the issue.

Any ideas or specific logs I could provide?

I installed this plugin to control my ZF9-Z9F surround system. In the Home app it appears as a light an a few switches when you press and hold it.

Do you think it's possible to transform the plugin to make it into a true AUDIO_RECEIVER accessory type? Similar to how HomeKit receivers (like Denon has a few on the market) appear in the Home app?

It appears HAP NodeJS supports that type of device too. See https://github.com/homebridge/HAP-NodeJS/blob/061737c394cbffc6fa901d1efdc23726b00bec69/src/lib/Accessory.ts

Hello guys, thank you so much for this plug in, I love it having it in my Home.

I have one request regarding the characteristics set on the plug-in. Could you add “Model”, “Manufacturer” and “Serial Number” to the settings so we can change them manually? Right now when you try to see the details of the vacuum in HomeKit it says “default” for model and a long serial number. I have tried to change the .setCharacteristics on the js but it doesn’t seem to work. I have done that with other plugins but I can’t make this one work. I think this will help to make it look more like a native HomeKit device .

Thanks,

First of all, thank you for your work on this plugin. It is a game changer for me, as it allows me to keep my soundbar remote in a drawer! :-)

I recently updated to v2.4.1, and overall it appears to be working just as well as v2.3.0

One issue that I figured I would raise now is that the On/Off tile in the Home.app rarely updates. Not sure if I have something misconfigured or if it's a limitation of how the soundbar goes into standby, etc. Let me know if there are any logs I could provide to help triage the issue.

This is not an urgent issue for me, since HDMI-CEC handles turning on/off the soundbar via the TV. But figured I would bring it up just in case.

To be clear, this is not new to v2.4.1

It would be great to have the option to turn on the receiver with bluetooth. I tried it, by editing your plugin, and it works perfectly. I used the node-bluetooth library. In this way we can disable the network standby which takes a lot of power.
Cheers

I have a Sony Hear.Go HiFi speaker and it uses http://192.168.100.8:54480/sony NOT port 10000 and it cant connect

what can I do.
thanks in advance

Hello, is there any way to set hostname instead of IP address? My 1080 unit change IP often after a power outage, When it change I have to set on homebridge and restart it. My sony unit register on network as Chromecast.local (and is not configurable as fa as I seen) so, perhaps a new parameter to setup this hostname or perhaps a boolean option to try to resolve default Chromecast.local hostname and not set ipaddress manually in homebridge config.

API Link to Sony's documentation has broken. Here is the updated link for the API Documentation from Sony's website.
