Question 1

I can’t connect to my Home Assistant server. What should I check?

Accepted Answer

Generate a new Long-Lived Access Token; verify your local HTTP URL (IP/hostname with correct port) or remote HTTPS URL (Nabu Casa, DuckDNS, or reverse proxy) and use the right protocol and port.

Question 2

Can’t trigger a QuickBar after a while (Accessibility is ON)

Accepted Answer

Force stop and reopen QuickBars; toggle the Accessibility service OFF/ON; exempt QuickBars from energy optimization; avoid protected keys; check for other services or apps that capture keys; apply OEM-specific power settings.

Question 3

When I try to capture a Trigger Key (like Netflix/Amazon Prime), it launches the app instead. What can I do?

Accepted Answer

Many branded/system keys are reserved by the OS and can’t be overridden. Choose a different key (Apps, colored keys, Guide/Info) or trigger QuickBars via a Home Assistant event.

Question 4

I captured an important key (D-Pad/Power), and the TV became hard to use. How do I recover?

Accepted Answer

Use the 5-second hold failsafe to disable remapping temporarily or turn off the Accessibility service; remove the problematic Trigger Key; re-add with safer bindings and re-enable remapping.

Troubleshooting QuickBars

I can't connect to my Home Assistant server. What should I check?

Trigger Keys stop working / persistent connection disconnects after a while (Accessibility is ON)

Trigger Keys stop working / background connection disconnects after a reboot (Accessibility turned OFF)

When I try to capture a Trigger Key (like Netflix/Amazon Prime), it just launches the app and won't capture it. What can I do?

I captured an important key (D-Pad arrows / Power etc.) as a Trigger Key and now it lost its function. The TV isn't usable. What can I do?

Volume buttons don't repeat when held down (with QuickBars Accessibility enabled)

Camera PiP doesn't work (MJPEG or RTSP). How can I fix it?
