Tibber Binding

[binderth (Thomas Binder)]

Hi @weymann
just a heads up, I experienced the exact same thing as Sönke. What I did this morning was:

Tibber [OH5]

I’m slightly confused right now! should i use the core-binding or the markeplace-binding? My understanding was, that the core-binding is the way to go and the Marketplace one “Tibber [OH5]” is deprecated? But it was currently updated 5 days ago? *EDIT: * the following changed since 13h and now I get timeseries for all “future” items like price, average24h and level. … question above still stands! works now since 13h!

in short:

1. unlink all items from the binding
2. remove the thing
3. remove the (core) Tibber binding
4. install the (core) Tibber binding
5. linked all (existing) items again

This resulted at first in the same thing happening: all live-items got updated, but spot-price, level and average24h stayed the same value, even though there were the “shall process timeseries” entries in the events.log (see the hidden details in my above post).
After a while and after 13:00h it reverted to normal and all three TimeSeries items got updated as expected. Nothing really in the logs (even though I set the binding to TRACE).

Oh. I just found out, that it already did change at 12:00h, sorry wasn’t aware of that. that happens to be the next full hour after I did those remove und re-install things.

I do have both “TIB_Current_Total_Price” and “TIB_SpotPrices” linked to the #spotPrice channel. But “TIB_SpotPrices” changed value two times within a millisecond. Perhaps that’s a hint?

But then again, I just also found out, that’s happening with the ForecastSolar binding (also the core 5.0.1 and not your Marketplace one! ) also:
