TV / Tiles non responsive

[goshawk2929]

Describe Your Problem: Samsung TV UN65JS8500FXZA. According to Samsung, this is not Titan OS as when bring up the app screen, it shows the legacy Osray OS. I was able to successfully add TV to HomeKit. I am samsungtvht as a child bridge. I did NOT add the bridge to HomeKit, only added the TV accessory. But when I go to try turn TV on or off, the device is unresponsive.

Hi @goshawk2929 This plugin cannot turn the TV on via LAN, as the TV shuts down the ethernet LAN port when it is turned off. It can only turn on via HDMI CEC, which requires your homebridge device to be connected to the TV via HDMI.

As for turning it off, make sure the IP address is correct, and that you have enabled the TV to accept remote control over the LAN. See your TV's menu for this.

If the IP address is correct, the TV accessory should detect power on and off state as it pings the TV and waits for a ping response.

Can you control the TV via the TV Remote Control in the iPhone? If so, then the IP address is correct and the TV can respond to the remote commands
