Bug in firmware version 5 of the X2 hub

PRO84 3 hour ago ⋅ 17 Read it

When an activity starts, then the hub sends the shutdown sequences of all activities.
That leads into problems if you switch directly into another activity that is using the same device.

You can easily confirm that by generating one more activity using in example your TV and command to mute the TV in the startup sequence, and in the shutdown sequence. You will recognize that your TV will mute if you use your original activity that is using your TV.

I do have an activity that is switching my TV and my Harman-Kardon receiver on. In that activity, I have a startup sequence that is switching the TV on, mute the TV and then start the Harmon-Kardon. The shutdown sequence sends mute to the TV unmute, switching the TV off and switching the Harmon-Kardon off.

A second activity is only switching the Harman Kardon system on in the startup sequence and shutting it down In the shutdown sequence.

Both activities are working fine when used separately using the off button on the X2.

When I switch my TV on by using the original remote control from the TV, the X2 doesn't know that the TV is on. But I can control if the TV is muted or not.

When I then start the activity that is only running the Harmon-Kardon receiver, the TV is muted.

This is definitely a bug in the firmware of the hub. The hub should only send shut down sequences of activities that have been started before.

Has anybody a solution?
