@Tomm @Rik_Van_der_Knaap Any special apps you need in the list of apps ?

285

Netflix, prime tv, dinsey+ and Spotify. This are the apps i would connect.

286
  • Plex
  • Netflix
  • Youtube
  • Apple TV

And if you can fix this with a static app list;
‘the possibility to directly open a webpage in browser with a homey flowcard’

Thanks :facepunch:t4:

287

You can test v. 1.7.4 by installing from this link:

There’s already an action to start a webpage.

288

Just tested 1.7.4:

  • Netflix app is installed on tv but starting via static applist results in ‘App not found’
  • other apps i tested (spotify, youtube) work well.
  • Use of the flowcard to start a webpage in browser results in 'V" when tested but without any visual result on TV.
  • The Apple TV app is missing from the static app list
  • Should it be possible to start the TV with the ‘launch app’ flowcard or is always necessary to use the 'Turn TV on flowcard first?

Hi,

You might have another Netflix - app than me? Can you check this list?

We need to search the web for the correct appId.

Also search for the appd for the Apple TV app.

You need to turn the TV on first. Also most TVs need some time before they are ready, so you should add a delay after the Turn on action…

Can you tell me how i can look up an appID?

291

Found it by Googling, I think.

Here’s v. 1.7.5 with Apple TV, and you can try “Netflix (2)” as see if that works:

292

Apple TV apps works.
Netflix (2) unfortunately still does not (application not found)

293

So using the DIAL name for Netflix, or the Samsung app-id does not work on your TV. That’s strange.
Have you tried reinstalling the Netflix app ?

294

Here’s v.1.7.6 with some more IDs for Netflix you can try:

295

I tried Netflix (1-4) but all give the same result; “application not found”
Since Netflix is part of the 'preinstalled appset" in the Netherlands it can not be removed.
The only option i have is to ‘reinstall’ but this doesn’t make any changes.
Is there anyway I can look up the appID myself?

296

Since fetching the list of apps doesn’t work on your TV, I don’t know.

297

Hey, do you have any suggestion on how to fix the fact that in homey ui my tv is always displayed as turned off (grayed out)? It doesn’t matter how I turn it on - via app, flow or remote, the status is always off. Everything works as far as controls and commands, I just can’t turn it off, since the status is always off.

298

What TV model do you use? And what version: “Samsung”, “Samsung (encrypted)” or “Samsung (legacy)”.

You can press the “Create diagnostics report” - button, and I will receive a log, and might be able to see if somethings is wrong.

299

that’s a shame…
Thanks anyway for all your efforts.
