LG TV - wake on LAN

Installation Home Assistant OS

Hello,

I’m trying to get my TV to turn on via HASS. I have this so far: It’s paired, and I can change sources and switch it off. It just doesn’t respond when I try to switch it on.

I’ve checked the MAC and it’s fine. any ideas? thank you

Config looks ok; just checking you have wake_on_lan: in your configuration.yaml as well?

ie:

wake_on_lan: # enables `wake_on_lan` domain

#LG TV LoungeRoom
media_player:
    -platform: webostv
    host: 192.168.1.119

etc…

Try remove the line:
message: “Turn on action”
