actually there is already a visual feedback.

Thank you my dear :pray:

It’s gonna be perfect if we can use the pointer instead of arrows :smiley:

Any chance someone can point me in the right direction to get this working?

I’ve installed browser mod via hacs to the integrations, i’ve also used hacs to install
LG WebOS channel pad & LG WebOS Remote Control to the front end.

If i look in my configuration/lovelace/resources i see

/hacsfiles/channel-pad/card-channel-pad.js
/hacsfiles/LG-WebOS-Remote-Control/lg-remote-control.js

im just not entirely sure what next, should this be appearing as a card in my lovelaceUI menu, should i be adding

- type: 'custom:lg-remote-control'
  entity: media_player.tv_lg_55c8

to a card, or to the configuration.yaml file? I am somewhat of a noob to HA, ive read the README.md but just not quite following it. Any help would be much appreciated.

I just discovered your project and it is really good. It was quite easy to install.

Congratulation on your work!

I have just one question. I am updating the sources but I don’t know how to set a custom icon. I want to set BBC Iplayer but it is doesn’t exist in the MDI libraty.

How can I use a custom one?

some custom icons have been included in the card code as svg. this work was done during the construction of the card.
at the moment it is not expected to insert new icons. you can only use the standard ones

I understand.
May be an option in the future that we could use a png instead?

For the time being I am going to look for an icon that will remind me of iplayer :slight_smile:

Hi,

Just want to say thanks for a great contribution. I have two LG TV’s and this remote card integrates them perfectly into Lovelace.

It’s wonderful. Could you customize all the buttons? For any Android TV for example

Hello,

I was able to import everything and add in some new source buttons. I can’t seem to get the ‘highlight’ / ‘circle’ around the buttons. I’ve copied a couple pieces of code to no avail. This is what it looks like currently.

With the following code:

colors:
  active-background-button-color: '#0080ff'
  deactive-background-button-color: '#f2f0fa'
  button-border-standard: 'rgba(0, 128, 255, .5)'
  state-icon-active-color: '#0080ff'
  buttons: var(--deactive-background-button-color)
  texts: white
  background: 'rgba(0,0,0)'
sources:

I am trying to get it looking like the example:

Can anyone help?

thanks for setting this up.

My Magic remote died a couple of days ago and LG can’t get a new one sent out for a week or two. :astonished: :rage:

Then I remembered seeing this a while back. :relieved:

Now I can still control my TV until I get the new remote. :tada:

Thanks again! :smiley:

Hi everyone, I’ve setup the LG TV WebOS Remote Control via HACS with all the components needed following the instructions provided and it works very well.

However, I have a problem with the channel selection button that started displaying an “undefined” header today.

I am on HA Core v0.115.6 and OS v4.13

I am using LG WebOS Remote Control, LG WebOS Keypad, LG WebOS channel pad and browser_mod all updated to the latest release.

This is my LG WebOS Remote config in lovelace:

channels:

  border: grey
  buttons: 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85)'
  texts: white
dimensions:
  border_width: 3px
  scale: 1
entity: media_player.lg_tv
sources:
  - icon: 'mdi:netflix'
    name: Netflix
  - icon: 'mdi:amazon'

  - icon: 'mdi:google-chrome'
    name: Browser Web
  - icon: 'mdi:television-classic'
    name: Canali TV
type: 'custom:lg-remote-control'

I’ve tested this on Chrome (PC) as well as on HA iOS App, Edge and Fully Kyosk Browser and I have the same issue.

The channel selection works fine, it just bother me that the “undefined” header is displayed.

Any suggestions on how to resolve this?

Thank-you

Its a browser_mod issue, I think. An update has just come on-line that should fix it.

Sadly, the latest browser_mod update did not fix the issue :frowning:

Worked for me… wonder if you just need to clear your cache?

Yup, that solved it. Just removed all the cached content from Fully Kiosk Browser and also from Google Chrome browser and now everything is working just fine.

Thank you! :slight_smile:
