Scan RF not working

Opened this issue · 2 comments

Scan RF is not working, same as the main repo though which seems like not actively maintained.
Below are the logs, it never returns the hex code.

Hey Geoffrey, I will be following the forks to see if there is a fix that I can pull into the repository. Thanks for flagging this.

There is a fix, I posted that in iprhodes repo.

You need to down grade to v3.6.16 any versions after that will fail to complete an RF scan.

lprhodes#514

You will need to inspect the changes in the code from version 3.6.16 to 3.6.17 in order to figure out what broke this feature, I downgraded and captured a bunch of codes, saved them in a document then upgraded to the latest release again, that way I have codes that I can program into a receiver and I can just add them to Homebridge as I need them.
