Hi,
thanks for reporting. this one is odd, because afaict there are other users with models from that generation with all working without that kind of issue.
Are you sure that ALL the settings bellow are ON on TV's Menu -> Network -> TV Remote App Settings
?
- TV Remote
- Powered On by Apps
- Networked Standby
Could you please provide the homebridge logs, also ?
Thanks!
On this tv. I get the following:
Menu -> Network -> TV Remote App Settings
Tv remote = on Wake on LAN/Wireless Lan = on Device to upload contents = -
No idea what device to upload is. I don’t see any settings for network standby anywhere. I have all energy savings off.
humm... per https://www.panasonic.com/content/dam/Panasonic/au/en/support_manual/televisions/TH-65EZ950_eHELP-Operating_Instructions_User_Manual.pdf (page 182)
you should have a Powered On by Apps
option which must be ON ... and should be enough :-) to move forward :-). if you haven't you probably need to update the firmware...
Hoping this helps! (and thanks for your patience)
I have the latest firmware on the tv.
Panasonic dropped the game on this tv, they promised hdr10+ for this tv but never delivered.
I don't know if you can have the option to turn on the tv using wol option in your plugin. you plugin does see the tv online and can turn off the tv.
There is no option for powered on by apps. I looked at every option on the tv. nothing
:(
(pasted from #32)
Although my tv won’t turn on as it doesn’t support network standby.
I also use a Sony tv plugin. Bravia
This plugin does have the option to wake the tv up using Wol.
I know I am probably in the minority here but an option to configure the wake up feature using wol would be awesome.
The plugin does recognize when I manually turn on the tv. It can also power it off. Just unable to turn it on since Panasonic drooped the ball on this oled model. :(
My problem with adding WoL support is that i have no way to test properly :/
to be 100% sure
sudo nmap -Pn IPofTV -p- -sV
gives you what ?Thanks again for your patience!
FWIW - from googling yet again ... from here which also covers (see first page) your model you have again on page 160 that enabling TV Remote is all you need... puzzling. BTW try plz a cheap trick - enable the TV to act as a DNLA server (page 64) to check wether that way it just keeps up ...
I reset the tv, followed all your advice, can't turn on the tv through the plugin.
when the tv is off, I am able to ping the tv. I can turn on/off the tv using the panasonic app and sending wol command to the tv from my router.

@jvic1234 i'll see what i can do in the next few days...
meanwhile two quick questions ...
a) can you measure how long it takes for the TV to come out of standby ? (i.e. how long it takes from become unreachable to become reachable on port 55000 (it's api port)) ? b) how long it takes to go in deep standby (i.e. no pingable) after a power off command is issued. ?
Thanks for your patience!
Hello.
In the Apple App Store, there are few official Panasonic tv remote apps.
Panasonic tv remote 2 is able to turn on the tv. Panasonic tv remote 3 is not able to turn on the tv
A) 5 seconds for it to be reachable. B) oled tv when turned off has different times it goes into standby mode but it seems less than 20 minute is average. After this time, the device is not ping able but it does respond to Wake on Lan command from my pc and router.
So it seems Panasonic firmware for this set is the issue but they won’t help at all.
The only way to wake this tv up is to have the option in the plugin for wol.
Sadly
@jvic1234
is something realistically doable still left from currently shipping plugin feature list or can this now be closed ?
thanxs!
on some TVs, the wakeup from lan does not work, but it can be achived using CEC hdmi.
on.sh
#!/bin/sh
echo 'on 0' | cec-client -s -d 1 && echo "ON"
off.sh
#!/bin/bash
echo 'standby 0' | cec-client -s -d 1 && echo "OFF"
state.sh
#!/bin/bash
state=$(echo 'pow <DEVICE #>' | cec-client -s -d 1)
if [[ $state == *" on"* ]]; then
echo "ON"
else
echo "OFF"
fi
using the Script2 plugin from home bridge to execute those 3 scripts, you should have on and off capabilities now
homebridge.conf
{
"accessory": "Script2",
"name": "TV ON/OFF",
"on": "/var/homebridge/TV-ON-OFF/on.sh",
"off": "/var/homebridge/TV-ON-OFF/off.sh",
"state": "/var/homebridge/TV-ON-OFF/state.sh",
"on_value": "ON",
"unique_serial": "1234568"
},
@stan69b
great feedback!
do you want to provide a PR to add just that cookbook for the docs ;-) ?
@AntonioMeireles
Do you want me to make a PR request on your README.md file to explain this little trick ? or I may have misunderstood your request :P
yes, a PR would be very handy, and you have the first hand know how about this specific issue :-) .
have a great weekend!
I'll try to do this today or tomorrow. Thanks, have a great week end as well.
Pull Request has been made, feel free to edit anything I wrote and change the layout I made :) !63
folks, closing, as afaict we'd gone as far as we could. please reopen or fill a new issue if you find that there's still room for improvement.
Hello,
The tv only responds to wol packet using mac address, I am able to turn on the tv using wol command, the tv wont keep the network card powered up when it is powered off even though I have selected network standby, I reached out to Panasonic and they don't seem to care.
