Any suggestions on WOL? #45

Closed thevickypedia closed 3 years ago

thevickypedia commented 3 years ago

I have the mac address of my TV and would like to turn it on remotely. I have used WOL tools for windows machines in the past but no idea on how to use a python program to do that on a TV. Any suggestions or guide would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

Any WOL library works. Look on pypi with "wol", for instance https://pypi.org/project/wakeonlan/

This turns on the tv remotely

from wakeonlan import send_magic_packet
send_magic_packet('01:2E:45:67:89:10')  # dummy mac address
