Hi,

from the log everything looks fine although your commands section is somehow not set correctly, as there is no name and sequence set, only the interval (maybe you only set the interval in Config-UI-X). But that doesn't matter for the TV remote control so you can just delete the commands section (or remove the interval and command in the Commands section in Config-UI-X).

I assume you added the TV accessory manually like it is said in the log? The remote is only available when the TV accessory is added with the HomeKit code shown. This is new with v1.0.1 as the plugin now supports external accessories to support the remote for more than one remote control per Homebridge instance and config.

If you did so, is your TV accessory active when Kodi is running and set to "Home"? Is changing the input to "Settings" working?

I tried everything with Kodi v19 as my main test so I cannot reproduce your problem right now. The remote control worked for me.

In order to help with this issue could you please set debug to true and send me the log that is written after adding all accessories and maybe try to set the input of the TV accessory or try to disable it so some log is written.

Thank you for your help. 😊

After the initial installation of homebridge-kodi I was getting the same "Error adding sequence: undefined" error message every time the plugin started. It went away after I had defined the first command sequence.

Before I did that, I was able to use most other plugin functions without a problem. I'm still on Kodi 18.9.
