Infrared: push a button doesn't work?
I am trying to make my Homey learn some of the buttons on my infrared remote control:
- Mute
- Power
- Netflix
My television is an Android TV and relatively new. If I try to 'automaticly' recognize, nothing comes up if I press the buttons 1 to 9.
So I chose to add a device, Infrared, Manual. Then I press the Power, and Mute button. No Netflix yet to keep it easy.
I press the button, Homey recognizes the signal. I can select 'Power' or 'Mute' as the button.
Then I create a flow. In the 'then' I drag the new IR device, select 'Mute' or 'Power' as the button to push. I connect this to a speechcommand and add a voice so I know for sure it has been executed.
So that works, but the TV doesn't mute. No matter where I place my Homey. The rainbow stops, though....
Now I am in doubt, is there a bug in the code, is this functionality not yet available or am I doing something wrong? Did anyone get this working yet?

If it is .20 Or later it should work, have you tried to restart your homey?
Same here on 0.8.22, look here https://github.com/athombv/homey/issues/249
@EdTst guess it is something that needs work.
