What is node-red-contrib-lgtv-with-turnon

Hi Sebastian (@hobbyquaker),

Thanks for sharing this node!!

On NPM you have both node-red-contrib-lgtv and node-red-contrib-lgtv-with-turnon. The links on the NPM page of the latter node, refer to the readme page of the first node. And they both use the same node ids under the cover, so I can't install them both:

12 Sep 08:06:02 - [info] Installing module: node-red-contrib-lgtv, version: 1.1.0

12 Sep 08:08:39 - [info]  - node-red-contrib-lgtv-with-turnon:lgtv-control : lgtv-control already registered
...

Sorry if this question has already been asked somewhere, but what is the difference between both nodes? And should I only install the latter one, because it is version 1.0.3 while the first one is version 1.0.0.

Thanks !! Bart

node-red-contrib-lgtv is the original version. node-red-contrib-lgtv-with-fullscreen is modded so it can launch the browser in fullscreen modus. node-red-contrib-lgtv-with-turnon probably has a wake-on-lan feature to remotely turn on the TV, but it is nowhere documented on github or something. The npm.js page and readme is the exact same as node-red-contrib-lgtv

If you are only going to use the features listed by the original node-red-contrib-lgtv then your best bet is to install the original.

Ok, thanks for the clarification!
