Python Plugin: Broadlink RM2 V3

[TheTool]

No matter what I tried (Changing files dir, python versions etc..)
Importing from broadlink doesn't work for me.
I get the error:

"Error: (Broadlink RM-pro) Error with json files to import"
jsons are good cause I successfully imported to HomeAssistant..

also trying to "switch on" the remote I get: "ini file not found: C:/RMpro/BroadlinkRM2-2-254.ini"
Learning new IR commands, saving and sending them works

Thanks!

put mode debug on and share your log file.

How I do that? can't find it
(Windows platform)
Broadlink plugin Debug is already on "true", if you meant that...

Go to Settings > Log
Use filter Broadl to narrow results.

this message is informative. this ini file will provide you the possibility to define action for each remote button. see wiki for more.

Not yet.. and not really priority.

Hi,

I am trying to install the plug-in on Linux Debian 4.9.30-2+deb9u5 (2017-09-19)
Domoticz V3.8552

I have followed the wiki and the "pip3 install broadlink" worked without errors.
I have also installed "pip3 install pycrypto" without error.

When I attempt to add hardware (which does appear in the list) the log reports:-

2017-10-08 19:21:46.035 (Broadlink) Started.

2017-10-08 19:21:46.624 Error: (Broadlink) Error Line details not available.

/home/stan/domoticz/plugins/broadlink/ exists and the plugin.py is in there
/usr/lib/python3.5 exists
/usr/lib/python35.zip does not exist

I have the windows version running on another pc, but would like to get it working on another installation under Linux.

Any help appreciated.

Regards, Stan

@Stan,
you should copy broadlink module under one directory searched by the plugin framework.
Have already seen people copying "broadlink" module under the plugin directory itself.

Thanks @zak45 (again).

I read through the forum and took your advice with the copy. Then I found a post by @phantom who pointed out that there was an upper case "C" on the crypto folder. So I followed his advice to fix. So many thanks to @phantom too.

All working now. Excellent.

Hi zak,
Since I've updated my server, I get this error message and it doesn't work anymore:

Could you please help me to fix it?

Hi.. see the post juste before. This looks like similar

[gizmocuz]

@Zak45

Is it possible to have a quick look here:

https://github.com/domoticz/domoticz/issues/1891

Could it be related to this plugin?

[zak45]

@gizmocuz

of course.

except that nothing has changed since many months and works in my configuration (win10) without any problem.
you can have it running even if you do not own materiel.
Let you know in case any finding.

[zak45]

so ...
Have checked log files on my Win 10 and do not see errors related to.
with the last beta, the only discovered problem on my side is this one: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=20169
have seen also that some people need to disable MyDomoticz to have Domoticz running and some others speaking about buienradar plugin.

@ofershm
your need to install / copy pyaes under right place , choose from ['/home/pi/domoticz/plugins/broadlink/:/usr/lib/python35.zip:/usr/lib/python3.5:/usr/lib/python3.5/plat-arm-linux-gnueabihf:/usr/lib/python3.5/lib-dynload']
