Control newer Samsung TVs

MrUart232 · October 30, 2017, 6:23pm

Did you check that your HASS installation is allowed to access the TV? Did you get an access request on the TV at the beginning?

Ola_Svensson · October 30, 2017, 6:59pm

Yes, got that request and accepted.
In HASS the only thing that works is the on/off status. Cant use any of the buttons and the source is empty.

MrUart232 · October 30, 2017, 7:24pm

Could you try the following code? Don’t forget to change the IP to the Ip of your TV.

import httplib, urllib2


class TVControl:
	def __init__(self,hostname):
		self.Hostname=hostname

	def SendSOAP(self,method,body):
		print '*',method

		headers = {
			"Content-type": 'text/xml;charset="utf-8"', 
			"SOAPACTION": '"urn:samsung.com:service:MainTVAgent2:1#%s"' % method
		}

		conn = httplib.HTTPConnection(self.Hostname)
		conn.request("POST", "/smp_4_", body, headers)

		response = conn.getresponse()
		print(response.status, response.reason)

		data = response.read()

		print data
		print ''

		return data

	def GetAvailableActions(self):
		body='<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" s:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">'+\
				'<s:Body>'+\
					'<u:GetAvailableActions xmlns:u="urn:samsung.com:service:MainTVAgent2:1"></u:GetAvailableActions>'+\
				'</s:Body>'+\
			'</s:Envelope>'
		self.SendSOAP('GetAvailableActions',body)		

tvcontrol=TVControl("192.168.178.12:7676")
tvcontrol.GetAvailableActions()

This should show us what your TV can handle.

After creating the custom samsung file I get this error:

Error loading custom_components.media_player.samsungtv. Make sure all dependencies are installed
21:56 .homeassistant/custom_components/media_player/samsungtv.py (ERROR)

Which dependencies are meant? What should I do to make it work?
I am using HA 0.58 in a Python Virtual Env end the samsungtv.py file was created bu the user “homeassistant”

Ola_Svensson · November 21, 2017, 2:30pm

check if you have BeutifulSoap installed

/Ola

dimitripb · November 22, 2017, 6:58pm

Thanks! It’s working now.
Unfortunately this custom component is not an improvement for me.
When turning off the TV (by the remote control, not HA) I want to get the lights brighter. This is actually working but it takes 10-15 minuten before HA notices the TV is off,

Torbenan · December 2, 2017, 8:10am

I’ve implemented dimming light, when I turn on my TV by using the NMAP tracker. When my TV Device change status to “Home” I turn a scene on and an other scene on when it change status to “not_home”. By default the NMAP scans for status every 3 min. but the interval can be changed in the config.

cjsimmons · December 2, 2017, 12:29pm

Hey, having a few issues trying to get this to work. I’ve installed all the required files, wakeonlan, and beautifulsoup4 (including the module bs4), but it’s just not working for me. Below is the error I’m getting.

I have a H series TV, and seeing in the first post that this is supported got me excited.

weblike · December 5, 2017, 9:11pm

I have this issue too. From log bellow I assume that something is not ok with my beautifulsoup4. How can I update it?
Thx.

MrUart232 · December 6, 2017, 8:18pm

Hi,

do you use HASS:IO or Home Assistant in the virtual env?

weblike · December 6, 2017, 9:01pm

Hi,
I have a Raspberry Pi 3 and Hass.io

MrUart232 · December 7, 2017, 8:13pm

Did you restart Home Assistant? It coould be that the requirement was not loaded fast enough:

.
.
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
.
.
REQUIREMENTS = ['wakeonlan==0.2.2', 'beautifulsoup4==4.6.0']
.
.

You could try to exchange this two lines, so that the requirement is installed before it will be used (or imported).

nsoares · December 21, 2017, 10:08pm

Hi guys. I’m trying to add my QLed tv in Hass.io
Can anyone help me please ?
I’ve added the file in the custom _components/media_player and I’ve also changed the port to 8001 but nothing worked. I could not see any request from Hass.io on the TV set.

Any ideias ??

Tjeerd · December 26, 2017, 7:00pm

Been giving this a try as the standard samsungtv.py is a bit limited. Was looking for a way to retrieve a channel list and offer that …

The default works with my tv UE55MU6172 and gets status. However when trying the custom_component, I am not getting anywhere.

Hi guys
I bought a 55mu6120 and I’m running hassio do I need to add anything other than the first posted code?

jnimmo · February 1, 2018, 1:55am

Is anyone else having issues with power state updates following v 0.62?
Finding the power status isn’t updating; which is resulting in the status being opposite. i.e. when turning the TV off it will suddenly update to show as on.

Tarab77 · February 1, 2018, 1:57pm

Yes. Upgrading to 0.62 power status seems doesn’t work anymore. My Tv is Samsung UE46D8000

Bolitz · February 1, 2018, 6:20pm

Same here, i can turn on the tv but not Off, and the status is always off
