jon, it eventually started working as epxected - and for no reason that i could determine ... weird i know, there was a couple of HS and WIN10 restarts involved .. cant understand
why it didnt work after the first restart,
.. anyway... all good thx.

Good to hear. Really not sure why you had this issue...one of those things with Windows?

thanks for reprt and test .. its quite weird i know ... ive triple checked the ini file... wondering if i have put some weird hidden character in there,
i might delete that line and retype it manually

For what it is worth - I didn't know this option existed so I went in and added the flag and rebooted and it worked fine. However, I am running Windows 7 on my Homeseer server at present. Still in the process of moving to a new Windows 10 server.

jon.
unfortunately that didnt fix it.
did a complete restart of WIN10 PC.
FYI
Im starting the exe file using R2studios “startup delayer”
I double checked the ini file settings (currently have “ShowCmdWindow=0)

its not a big issue ... everything appears to work as expected

You may need to restart Windows as you may have an orphaned cmd window running.

cmd window not shutting down?

per the manual - i have set ShowCMDWindow=0 in the settings section of Jon00HarmonyHub1.ini

however the CMD window stays open, note i also tried setting it =2 & likewise it doesnt shutdown after 30S.. stays open indefinitely.

I shutdown the cmd window AND also the exe file (in the tray)
, then restarted .exe file (with admin priveledges) ... cmd window opens and stays open.

am i missing something?
does something else need shutting down ? restarting?

The plugin is working just fine - my compliments ...

To confirm - I go into Homeseer and delete all of the devices then restart everything? Thanks.

[jon00]

I believe there is a bug where it will only create devices when first run. You may have to delete all the devices created and restart Homeseer.

I am running into an issue adding a device. I added a new device to one of the remotes but cannot get it to show up in homeseer. I have added an activity, synchronized everything so it shows up in the remote and restarted the harmony tray icon several times, as well as restarting homeseer. It does not seem to matter? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

I tried searching through this thread but had no luck. I am sure someone asked this already? I want to put a couple of buttons on the Harmony screen that trigger some homeseer events when pressed. Lights on, Lights Off, etc. For example - Do I set up a bogus device on the harmony and just rename it's actions so I can see them in Homeseer? Thanks.

This (and other Harmony plugins) only read the configuration from the Harmony remote for devices it already controls. To do what you want can be achieved by using Jon00Flirc or assigning the control buttons for Philips Hue bulbs and using something like HAControl to read it and send JSON strings to HomeSeer.

Recently moved HS3 to a new dedicated PC. I'm noticing that my CPU is going at 100% all the time. Anyone else having this issue?
