Kapitanie,

iOS 12.2 beta has native remote capabilities added to TV remote in control center, as well as to HomeKit.

Homebridge has been updated already to support the new capabilities and some integrations have already been done for Sony and LG TVs, eg. https://github.com/merdok/homebridge-webos-tv

Video demo here: https://twitter.com/KhaosT/status/1088677113106903040

It'd be amazing to have it added for Samsungs in this plugin!

Someone also created this for Sony Bravia TVs. I don't know if that helps, but maybe some code could be copied? https://github.com/SeydX/homebridge-bravia-tvos

So, the final iOS 12.2 version is here and the TV remote works amazing for some other TV! This plugin seems abandoned - do any of you know anyone who can program and could fork it to add the required features?

+1 please! This is the only package that works with my TV :)

Maybe someone has the knowledge in JS to merge this with the homebridge-samsung-tizen plugin - it should be relatively easy, the code is all there. After a successful fork, it could probably be merged with the main repository and the owner of homebridge-samsung-tizen could keep maintaining and enhancing the plugin (he can't merge them himself as he doesn't have a J-series TV). https://github.com/tavicu/homebridge-samsung-tizen/issues/98
