New Release: Release 2.5 02/13 #1 · tmrobert8/openhab-addons · GitHub
Only contains reviewer changes:
- Some refactoring of the code
- Most importantly - a few potentially (very small chance however) of endless loops
Let me know if you have any issues…
Why OH 2.5.1-2 does discover only Scalar Web things?
There was a change and the addresses in part
central.maven
should be replaced by
search.maven
e.g.
bundle:install http://search.maven.org/maven2/com/google/code/gson/gson/2.8.5/gson-2.8.5.jar
That’s the preferred service and I’d rather people start using it as the others will slowly go away. You can reenable the other discoveries (see the README)
Thanks - I’ll update the post

hello,
i had the Sony BDV-N7200W.
i installed the binding and he founds the the BDV player. but now my question how can I control audio volume or HDMI ? there is no channel with this info?
I want to use it with my Alexa
thx
The BDV-7200 series has very limited scalar support (a few system preferences if I remember). I recommend also using IRCC and DIAL services. IRCC will allow you to send remote presses (allowing you to control the volume and inputs - basically anything your remote can do) and DIAL will allow you to start installed applications directly.

special thx for your reply and work.
perhaps can you help me ?
how must I configure the IRCC ?
in tried in paperui to add manually a IRCC device, but he wants a “Ircc URL”, only the ip of the device don’t works.
or must I do it a other way?
Special thx to you
Take a look at the readme (link in first post) to see how to enable discovery for the other services (and remember to turn the device on prior to doing a discovery). If that still doesn’t work - I’ll need to see some log files..

okay now he founds it, he says in paperui I had version 1.3
then I restarted the openhabian, but I don’t have any .map file under “openHAB-conf/transform/”
the thing is ONLINE
he don’t create a file.
what can I do?
Check the configuration - there should be a map config item. If it’s empty - put one in (no path - just a name like ‘ircc.map’. If it is not empty - like a permission issue (whatever is running openhab has to have write permission to that directory). I don’t use openhabian so I can’t help you on that one..
under settings of the IRCC is
Discovered Commands Map File (READONLY)
ircc-38184c6178cc.map
but I can’t find this file anywhere.
then I add by
Commands Map File
test.map
and restarts, but he don’t creates any file, but openhabian is there not the problem, all of my other stuff works well with the transform folder.
perhaps any ideas ?
i test it here since over 4 hrs and now this … 
I’m guessing it’s a permission issue then. I’d turn debug on for sony (see first post again), then restart openhab. Search the resulting log file for ‘test.map’ and you should see debug messages stating where it’s writing it to and any issues it had…

hey
I check the log there is nothing about test.map, and nothing about .map
here the log file
EDIT
i installed the map transformation, now I had the file with the commands in it.
Yep - I should have thought about that. I’ll add that to the readme file (that the map transformation is needed for support)
From you log file - this was the important line:
20-Feb-2020 16:30:17.691 [DEBUG] [rg.openhab.binding.sony.internal.ircc.IrccProtocol] - No MAP transformation service - skipping writing a map file
BTW - if you install scalar, you’ll get power switch, sound settings, illumination settings as well

yeah now I had 2 map files, first test.map and scalar-38184c6178cc.map.
I make 2 items
String SCAR_Command "Command [%s]" { channel="sony:scalar:38184c6178cc:system#sysCmd" }
String IRCC_Command "Command [%s]" { channel="sony:ircc:38184c6178cc:primary#command" }
then I make in my habpanel 2 buttons, one with scalar and one with the IRCC command item. I test both, with “VolumeUp” but the volume doesn’t change.
here is the log where I press the two buttons
is it because I get a 403 error?
403 (http reason: Forbidden)
under my thing there stands
Registration Mode 3 , is this the preshared key method?
the problem is my player don’t has the setting to configure the authentification method under settings.
I searched for a hour but I don’t find anything in the player.
perhaps you have a idea?
THX
Thanks for the log - yours is responding slightly differently to detecting whether registration is needed or not. Give me a day and I’ll create a fix for it..
