Hi
I am trying to set up my new LG TV (webos)
I have the following in configurator but I can not find the entity at all. All the set up are fine in TV. Can someone help a little?
wake_on_lan: # enables `wake_on_lan` domain
# LG TV
webostv:
host: 192.168.1.xx
name: LG TV Webos
#other settings
turn_on_action:
service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet
data:
mac: 'A8:23:FE:xx:49:xx'
customize:
sources:
- livetv
- netflix
- hdmi1
- hdmi3
- youtube

Have you looked in your entities for
media_player.lg_tv_webos

have you tried with just this part
webostv:
host: 192.168.1.xx
name: LG TV Webos
#other settings
turn_on_action:
service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet
data:
mac: 'A8:23:FE:xx:49:xx'
Also, are you seeing anything in the logs?
Also, it may seem a silly question, but did you restart after you made the changes?
Think the indent is wrong ?
You have it under the wake_on_lan section
wake_on_lan: # enables `wake_on_lan` domain
# LG TV
webostv:
host: 192.168.1.xx
name: LG TV Webos
#other settings
turn_on_action:
service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet
data:
mac: 'A8:23:FE:xx:49:xx'
customize:
sources:
- livetv
- netflix
- hdmi1
- hdmi3
- youtube

I just tried with the following code. Still nothing happens. I did a restart several times
I also don’t see anything wrong in the logs. I am looking for the media player entity, and through entities one by one
webostv:
host: 192.168.1.xx
name: LG TV Webos
#other settings
turn_on_action:
service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet
data:
mac: 'A8:23:FE:xx:49:xx'

this is the example so i think I have done it as it should be
# Example configuration.yaml entry
wake_on_lan: # enables `wake_on_lan` domain
webostv:
host: 192.168.0.10
#other settings
turn_on_action:
service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet
data:
mac: "B4:E6:2A:1E:11:0F"
media_player:

When you do the configuration correctly (Check the indentation again…) you still need to accept the notification on your tv to complete the setup.

Ok I will check the notifications in TV when I return home. It was working before the update so I thought it would still do. I will report how it goes. Thanks
That is different to your original post

fwiw, I did not have to validate again on the TV…

You are correct!
I don’t know how I didn’t noticed that. I kept the previous indentation I quess.
That’s solve it. All is working fine (and the sources)
Now I am wondering, how do you use this function in HA? I mean, for what reasons do you use it?
Thanks all!
Glad you’re sorted.
Turning off at bedtime, turning on and off and controlling volume/mute with alexa and pop up notifications
