Samsung UE48J5510, power off ok, power on does not work #83

Hy,

I have an issue here and i don't get it. I was able to install the plugin and to get it work, also with siri (Power off AND on worked). I recognized that only volume, info buttons and back button works on apple remote app. I thought it would be a good idea to start from the beginning (bad idea). I have paired the TV through "pair1" with Pin. Mute-test is fine and i can add the TV to Homeapp.

config:

i tried the keys to see if they are shown in homeapp (yes they are shown but do not work)

i copied the usn out of the logger, the token i got after pairing command.

Can anyone help here? i tried to pair it severel times. Every time i pair with pin code, i get a token. i copy the new token, but i only can switch the tv off.

Hi @chridefix, please note that for the older models of samsung, Wake on Lan (WoL) is not supported, which means that you cannot turn ON your tv using the plugin (or exposed web API).

You can, once the tv is on use the plugin to control the tv (and turn it OFF), but waking still has to be done by pushing the physical button on either the TV or Remote control.

This is not a limitation on the plugin, but rather the tv unit itself.

Hope that clears it up.
