Version 3.0.0-Alpha.1 not detecting TCL 55C807 during setup

[isupremedyou]

I am using Version 3.0.0-Alpha.1
My Roku TV is the TCL 55C807

Whenever I run the homebridge-roku-config, it gets a timeout error saying no Roku devices are found in 10 seconds.

I have confirmed that my homebridge server is running on the same network as the TV. I tried extending the timeout up to 60 seconds and that did not help either.

Is there anything I am missing?

The error that prints out is:

Error: Could not find any Roku devices after 10 seconds

Having this same issue with a TCL 65R615

@fullmetaljester I ended up having to hardcode the values in the homebridge config.json file, let me know if you need any help with that

[fullmetaljester]

i suspected that might be the case. I'm actually doing it in HOOBS too but the process is the same just via the GUI.

I'm having the same problem with a TCL Roku TV. Can anyone share their config?

[isupremedyou]

@hetkin do you have Google WiFi? I ask because today I switched over to using Eero for my WiFi and I was able to get the plugin to detect my TV.

I’m not sure what causes this. I switched to ATT fiber recently, and for a couple of days I was unable to auto discover my TV. But I tried again a few days later and it worked. I initially suspected that my router blocked UPnP, but I didn’t change any config for it to start working. You could check if your router is blocking UPnP.

Otherwise, I’ve been working on a more user friendly homebridge-roku-config command that’ll be interactive, and if it fails to find any devices then it’ll ask for the Roku IP before continuing. I’m not sure when I’ll have time to finish working on it though.
