This seems to work quite stable I’m curious how it works for you guys:

### Changes

- Fixed Wake on Lan feature (Allows to turn the TV on when it has been off for \>10 minutes)
- Made app ~75% smaller by removing or substituting big dependencies (Makes development faster, reduces memory (by ~33%) and CPU usage and greatly reduces possible vulnerabilities)
- Added English/Dutch translations for remote button names (in the action card)
- Stop polling the TV when you remove it from Homey (Might fix some crashes)
- Split notifyChange and device polling into separate threads (should stop on/off flickering)

### How to install

- Either install git and use `git clone https://github.com/Joolee/codes.lucasvdh.philips-jointspace.git` or download and unzip from: [https://github.com/Joolee/codes.lucasvdh.philips-jointspace/archive/refs/heads/beta.zip](https://github.com/Joolee/codes.lucasvdh.philips-jointspace/archive/refs/heads/beta.zip)
- Follow step 1 from: [Getting Started | Homey Apps SDK](https://apps.developer.homey.app/the-basics/getting-started) (You don’t need to install the Docker cloud stuff)
- Run (You need to have a console started and cd’d to the directory containing the app.js file)
  - `npm install`
  - `homey login`
  - `homey select`

- Run the app with `homey app run`. Or install permanently with `homey app install`

### Or install using WSL / Linux

I can recommend using WSL(2) with Debian or Ubuntu if you’re comfortable with that. All commands you need to run should be:

```bash
sudo apt update
sudo apt install git npm
mkdir ~/git
cd ~/git
git clone https://github.com/Joolee/codes.lucasvdh.philips-jointspace.git
cd codes.lucasvdh.philips-jointspace
sudo npm install --global --no-optional homey
npm install
homey login
homey select
homey app run

```

### And then

It should not be needed to remove and re-add the TV to Homey.

If you run into any problems, please run the app with `homey app run` and send a copy of the crash or other applicable (error) messages.
