Just got home and tried it out.galadril wrote:have you tried the latest beta??
So, much better! I see my devices

few issues:
1. Menu shows duplicates, I have multiple switches, temperaure, utilities sensors, settings etc, basically multiple "copies" of all available menus.
All of them are showing same information (same devices). See attached image
2. Also, there is one Scene defined...which i deleted couple of days ago, so in domoticz its not present. I tested re-installing application didn't help. Tested clearing app cache and app data, didn't help either. So I guess there are som residual "cache" files on the internal storage that aren't cleared/removed/updated
3. Overlays...not sure if these are supposed to work or if I am testing it wrong (was outside application and tried with regular switch on/off, but nothing happened). Just to be clear, overlays seem to work when i in the app switch on/off a device. But when I triggered my other sensors (like the door sensor) nothing popped up on the screen, but maybe thats not what its suposed to do

Re: Dromoticz for Android TV (Leanback)
Ok, I thought it was self solved the point 1 and 2
Uninstalled the application and then via ES file explorer deleted Domoticz folder which was left on Internal Storage.
Now menu looks as they should, but ONLY during first start of the application.
Tried to enable 1 switch (ON), application self-exited.
Started application again and now there were duplicates of menus again :s

Re: Dromoticz for Android TV (Leanback)
Tried the new version now. This works a lot better.
A few observations from a quick test.
When I start it, I get a desktop with settings and refresh button. When going into the settings
menu, I enter my server details (no information here whether I go back or apply settings in some fashion).
When I go back out of the menu, my server is not appearing (refresh did not work). I had to
restart the app for my server to show up.
When activating a switch, the selection jumps back to the first switch on the row,
instead of staying on the switch just operated (also no dim for light). Not sure if this is the intended
behavior, but I think I would prefer if the selection stayed on the same switch after activating it.
Camera menu in the works?
I have not experienced any of the issues @sharif has encountered.
Nice work

Galadril was kind enough to debug the application directly towards my domoticz server and it was mostly successful, as obviously last beta I can at least now start the application

Good suggestion!When activating a switch, the selection jumps back to the first switch on the row,
instead of staying on the switch just operated (also no dim for light). Not sure if this is the intended

Weird.. I never experience that issue..Menu shows duplicates, I have multiple switches, temperaure, utilities sensors, settings etc, basically multiple "copies" of all available menus.

Ill disable the cached files in the next beta.. just to see if it's related to that!

Re: Dromoticz for Android TV (Leanback)
Excellent! As of todays beta, duplicates in the menu sections are now gone. Restarted application several times just to see if I could provoke the bad behavior again, but I couldn't. So thumbs up!!!

Re: Dromoticz for Android TV (Leanback)
Ready for some more fun? 
I have one "device" that is in Utilities category. It's basically virtual/dummy device which I am feeding with values from a script via Json.
(script reads status of my UPS device and send it to device as an integer / percentage value).
Device works fine in domoticz and also displays fine in your application. However if I click on this device on the TV, application exits to the dashboard.
No error or anything, just exits. All other device offer some kind of feature, on/off or at least to make them Favority.
My virtual device is not of on/off type, but I guess it should be possible to choose it as Favorite at least.
This is not a problem nor annoyance for me personally, as all I need to see from this device is displayed in the main screen overview. Just wanted to let you know

Re: Dromoticz for Android TV (Leanback)
Updated to the new version yesterday and discovered that on first start of the app it seems to just "exit" even on other devices.galadril wrote:sharif wrote:Ready for some more fun?

This time just a regular on/off switch. However after another start of the app it was all fine. So as mentioned before, imo, priority on this "issue" can be set to "vewy vewy low" as Elmder Fud would say
