Hello, i have an Sony Bravia W805C, a 2015 Bravia Model. I installed OpenHAB 2 and your Sony Binding and after some time, i got it running. The Auto Discovery of the Device does not work, Simple IP is activated on the TV, but it does not find it. So i addet the TV manually. I tried IRCC Method, but it says it is offline. It is not working. Then i tried Simple-IP Method and it found the TV and it is Online. I builded a sample Remote from the Demo in the Readme and everything is working fine so far! I can change Input, i can turn the TV on and off, everything is working but one thing not - the IR Commands and change Channels. When i try to switch to Channel 1 or 2 or 3 etc, nothing happens. I tried also the Channel Down and Channel Up, not working. Why does everything else work but not these commands? I am looking for a way to open the Video App, but it none of the IR Commands in the Readme and none from the generated .map File will work…
I hope someone can help me with that. Sorry for my poor English. Greetings, Caliban
Heyo!
Using this binding for a long time now and everything is running great.
I recognized a bug:
Standard is that analog channels are being ignored and i switched that to none because i want to control the volume.
after a reboot i have to change that setting again because it’s not persistent.
Maybe you can implement a .cfg-file for that binding?
Is this binding works on the latest 2.2 release? I have installed this binding, but it can’t find my Sony TV automatically… there is something which I’m missing?
OFFLINE - COMMUNICATION_ERROR Error connecting to simple IP tv
Device seems to be online, ping-able, etc…
Ps.: Can anyone provide a solution for this?
Restarting openhab, doesn’t help on this problem, but if I turn on the TV from the remote, the connection becomes available and I can remote control the TV from openhab. However I think this function turns off after some minutes. Anyone had same issues? Energy-saver mode is off, Remote Control is on… I can’t find any other settings on the TV related to this…
Using Wi-Fi instead of LAN can cause this issue? After the connection is lost (around 1min) I can’t even ping the device, the device disconnects from WiFi. Are there somewhere a toggle where I can turn this behaviour off?
I have experienced the same issue with the binding, since a few months. (have a 2015 8005 series LCD TV). If i re-enter the access code, it gets online again. However, the current binding is so untstable with the daily 2.3 builds, that I’ve stopped using it.
Normally it runs fine for ~24 hrs. Then it starts to spew ridiculus amounts of errors in to the logs, eventually it makes the whole system sluggish. (if I remove the sony bidning, everythings runs nice and smooth as usual).
I waiting for the new “re-write” of the binding, hoping these issues will be resolved.
I’m using the stable 2.2.0 release and I don’t get any errors…
However I can’t even setup the IRCC, and other channels (just the SimpleIP). Restarting the TV and openHab doesn’t help, the discovery can’t find the device.
This is not my main TV and I can live with that I can only use the SimpleIP, because it has all the functionality (turning on-off, channel change, etc…) which I need, but this is really prevents using this binding that TV turns off completely after a few mins. And I think this is not the problem of the binding, because as soon as I turn the TV on from the remote control it connects to the TV. Years before I have tried a mobile app for this TV, but as I can remember it had this same problem, that I was unable to turn on the TV after not using it for ~10 mins.
I just saw that there is a value for which network adapter is used. However is it not so clear that this is the adapter of the TV or how the openhab server connects to the router?
I just want to ask that there will be any new to this binding in the new 2.3 stable release? If I’m currently on 2.2?
Also do you have any idea to this problem which I have?
Since then I have restarted several times the TV and openHab as well, but still can’t find it, just simple ip tv works… also it get’s disconnected after I turn TV off.
My bining is working nicely even at 2.3.0.
My binding is still at RQST code mode. But it works.
The only issue i have is that my changes of the ignored channels are not saved.
That’s kind of annoying because i don’t want the binding to ignore any …
Maybe this issue goes along with the not saved ignore-configuration.
I don’t know how to get my tv to provide a code i could enter there …
yes. everything’s fine except the issue i mentioned above.
i control: power, volume, amazon, twitch, all channels and even IRCC commands.
if you like i can share my items file
Hi, i deleted the scalar web thing since I had problems connecting to my TV. I would have hoped for it to show up in the inbox. But to add it as a thing again, I seam to need to manually enter IP, MAC, CODE and MAP. I don’t have a map. Is there a more user friendly way to get Scalar web to work with my Sony TV again?
I think not. I am considering my options for getting my vW760 to work with oh, and afaict, the only available option is to write a new dedicated binding. I am tempted, but I fear my java knowledge will mean it will take forever.
Maybe someone has already done something for the Sony projectors? (Open call)
I’m still here - just haven’t touched this in awhile (had some health stuff happen that has created an extended leave). I still plan on getting back to it because the latest version is a HUGE change over what you all have.
