Hello!

It looks like your code is the only source code I can find for communicating with Hisense Smart TV via UDP, big thanks for that!

Command python hisense.py -l finds and shows my Hisense Smart TV: `` {'192.168.1.33': <HisenseDataObject method:DISCOVERYACK version:VERSION102 redundantip:192.168.1.33 tvdescriptor:SmartTV08 extra: ip=192.168.1.33 devicename=Smart TV versionid=VERSION300 sourcedesp=ATV:0;DTV:1;VIDEO1:2;VIDEO2:3;YPbPr:4;HDMI1:5;HDMI2:6;HDMI3:7;VGA:8;MC:10 inputmethod=1 tvconvergence=0 udpchannelsurport=1 platform=1 #0-android 1-linux

} `` but I can't figure out how to send "remote" keys to smart TV (sorry but I'm not proficient in Python).

For example, command **python hisense.py KEY_APPS** produces this output:

and nothing more. Result: pressed key "MUTE" (sound muted on TV)

Could you please explain your code for a little?
