Connection times out on tv shutoff #20

Closed zerbzman closed 2 years ago

zerbzman commented 2 years ago

Hey,

Is there something I'm missing or something I need to turn on so the connection doesn't close and time out when I turn off the TV. I'm not able to turn on the TV via this protocol.

You need to turn off deep sleep on your androidtv settings

zerbzman commented 2 years ago

I have tried to using Wakelock but that doesn't seem to work anymore. Do you know of a way to prevent deep sleep?

It's in AndroidTV parameters - it could be different between devices

zerbzman commented 1 year ago

Ok, I found an option that wakes the TV periodically to look for casting devices.

The tv will connect to my app and authenticate but the power on command doesn't work. I have tried sending it right after authentication but it doesn't work. Any thoughts?

OK! Here is what worked for me.

  1. Make sure that Networked Standby is turned on in the settings
    • Go to Settings -> Network & Internet -> Networked Standby
  2. Turn ON the TV by sending 1 Wake On Lan packet and then another at least 3 seconds after.

I have to do more testing to see if this still works to turn on the TV a day later.
