@chrisaxe21 Can you share the full code for the remote?
Has anyone done any more testing on the 2017 tvs? I have a UN55NU6950/6900 and all Iâm able to do is turn on the tv from Homeassistant. No other functions. Once you turn the tv on it goes from off to unknown, then kinda flips between unknown and off even when the tvâs on.

Hi MrUart232.
I have a Samsung TV 2014 H Series and your code is the only one that works for me. Have you managed to finish it? I mean, get it works âturn offâ and âturn onâ. It would be fantastic.
Thanks
Hey,
I tried the above samsung.py code which seems to have done the trick. At least for the status and the volume.
I do also see the correct source, but I still canât change source nor can I turn off the tv or on.
My TV is a: UE55H6675
Anyone having any experience with this model?
A lot of users have issues with their samsung tvâs (including myself)
On Github kdschlosser is working on a fix.
Keep an eye on this issue on github.

Thanks.
He is working on it hard. Hope he repair the component for encrypted Samsung TVs 
I am in the same situation that you. I control status and volume using the custom_components/media_player/samsungtv.py and the turning on/off via hdmi_cec.
I hope to control everything using only one component some day 
How have you achieved to turn it on and off with that?
Itâs easy. You must connect the RPI to your TV by HDMI and setup de hdmi_cec component in Home Assistant.
After that, you can send âhdmi_cecâ commands to your TV, like turning on/off
action:
service: hdmi_cec.power_on
More info here.
Arh yes, that makes sense. I thought you could without.
One thing I canât get working is the source change.
Before I was using openhab and had that part working too. I really hope I can find a solution to get that working. I was using it in a rule so that my TV switches from one source to another, showing my surveillance cameras when the doorbell rang. Unfortunately thatâs no longer possible 
Anyone else not seeing their tvâs updating after the latest 88.1 update?
This is the error I see in the log:

I get âms.channel.unauthorizedâ when connecting to Samsung TV UE55NU6035 and I havenât been able to figure it out.
Here are the logs when pressing the on/off button in the UI:

I have been following
also but have seen he has stopped. However I also do own an Athom Homey and for that device somebody managed to write an app. For the code see: GitHub - balmli/com.samsung.smart at cd455cbb5cb27988e7e32e2489cf604e7135843d. Possibly somebody could use this to create a working Hass module.

Thanks in advance
Everything stopped working after an update. That happened a couple of weeks after my post. I just bought an ir blaster. Havenât tested direct commands eversince.
Is there anyway to grab status of hdmi on Samsung tv.
Means can we grab different status of hdmi
Like is it
HDMI 1 or HDMI 2 or HDMI 3 âŠ
Please guide.
Thanks
After HA updates, I have decided to create a custom component, it is working on the latest version of HA 0.99.3, I have uploaded the code to:
I hope it helps you.
