Virtual Device Loop stop working after a while

[Smartelite 0]

Hello

I have a virtual device loop to push names into labels in the VD. However, it is working perfectly but after a while it is like freeze. No changes is made to labels.

But after just save the VD (no changes) things will back to normal

add it as a button and then use a scene to press the button every 3 seconds or more than 3 seconds this is an error in the json that crashes the VD fibaro told me all about it when i had this trouble and they do not seem keen to put some fix in place...

deanrparry, because that is problem in code not in virtual device, add checking response, status, erorcode and script will work all time

@A.Socha,

I couldn't understand this. What do I have to add in the code to make it work?

deanrparry,

Do you think making that scene every 1 second will cause problems in my HC2?

[A.Socha 133]

HC22 = Net.FHttp("IP",8735)

response, status, errorCode = HC22:GET("/api/v1/zones/0/nowplaying")

if tonumber(errorCode) == 0 and tonumber(status) ==200

then

xxx

else

fibaro:log("error on conection")

end

I have notified Fibaro about that a while. Don't use Net.FHttp() inside main loop.

I will die with error without any way to get it working again after random hours of time.

I have tried anything to catch errors, but this will not do anything.

The ONLY way to get your code working :

Make a button like reload, and in main loop press this button every X seconds... Stupid but fail proof.

kiwi,

Did you try the above code thing?

Because logically it is the same, the loop will be executed every 3 seconds like the scene exactly.

I will try both cases. As you have said the scene solution is not reliable i guess.

Thanx

kiwi,

Would you tell me what i am doing wrong?

Please login or register to see this code.

i want the scene to be activated every 3 seconds

[deanrparry 19]

HC22 = Net.FHttp("IP",8735)

response, status, errorCode = HC22:GET("/api/v1/zones/0/nowplaying")

if tonumber(errorCode) == 0 and tonumber(status) ==200

then

xxx

else

fibaro:log("error on conection")

end

this check failed aswell for me when i tried it on your last advice... i personally do not use them anymore they simply do not work very well!

What do you use then?

Move your code in a update button.

Then in the mainloop do :

(the "5" in this code is the number of the update button)
