Describe the feature samsung tv remote

Is this platform dependent (windows, mac, ..)? mac 10.15

If documentation is required to implement, do you know where to find it? https://github.com/Ape/samsungctl

Usecases mute tv

DireWolf81 commented 4 years ago

I second this request. I have been trying to research how to do this on my own, but I am not quite that talented.

Additional uses: Power On/Off, Select Input

+1 for Power On/Off and selecting inputs.

Until someone can take on the task of creating this module, you could probably use the command line interface referenced in the issue and then use the execute shell command function of Companion to run that command. Just an idea.

I have no idea how much it would cost to do a bounty on this, but am willing to put up some money if it helps get it done soon. We are rolling out about 10 NU6080 TVs and as they have networking built in, would prefer to not have to buy a Global Cache unit for each TV for remote powering on and off.

Looking into this a bit further, not sure how realistic it would be to make a plugin for controlling Samsung TVs. It seems that the standard for controlling the TVs is ever changing, and varies per model. For example, the Samsungctl library by Ape and kdschlosser do not work with my NU6080. Definately not against it if someone does manage to make something work though.

I second this request as well

we have 2 samsung qn32q60aafxza's and 2 samsung un43au8000fxza's in our production trailer.

So this module definitely works with my ancient Samsung smart TV: https://www.npmjs.com/package/samsung-remote

Although for mine at least e.g. KEY_HDMI4 doesn't work, only KEY_HDMI which toggles between the active HDMI sources.

See also #805 for the probably newer ones.

Should this not now be merged into https://github.com/bitfocus/companion-module-samsung-smarttv (which is for the newer devices)
