Homekit slow to update state or do action after few hours

Hello,

I'am pretty new on homekit world (and apple world) and I configure few week ago homekit system. It's a good home automation system but I have an issue, after few hour homekit is very slow (for getting state or do an action, it's can take more than 30s). Only solution for that it's to restart apple TV. After that all state and action are instant.

My system :

- tado thermostat (1 AC and 6 valves)

- philips hue with 21 devices (light, motion detecteur and remote), wired

- one homebridge for unifi protect (11 cameras), wired

- one homebridge for ipx800 automate, tado home/away switch, mqttthing for ajax alarm (22 devices), wired

- apple tv 4k 3eme generation with tvOS 17.1, wired

- iphone 15 with iOS 17.1.1

- mac book air m2 with macOS 14.1.1


Sometimes it's slow only on mac not on iphone, sometimes after few hour it's instant for few minutes than slow again. When I restart apple TV it's ok for few hours.


I don't known how to fix that, does someone has an idea ?

Thanks in advance


Apple TV 4K, tvOS 17

Hello,

I think I find the issue it's due to my tv. I have an ambilight TV and I link this to my hue. So when I look TV it's change the color of 2 bulb in real time accordly to TV image. I think it's generate lot of event and slow down homekit itself... It's a shame for Apple to not handle "too much event" (specially on apple tv...).
