If you go to your states tab do you have a remote for the media player? A remote is required.
No only for my Apple TV, not for my TV. Can I create a remote for my TV ?
Is this a Roku TV? If so, it should be created automatically as of 0.86
No its a normal Samsung TV.
Integrated with media_player component.
This card work with the Roku component, hence the name. It should work with anything that has a remote component, but I have not tested that. I believe someone made a more universal one based on my work, I’ll see if I can find it.
Mhh tried it with tv-card. It still doesnt work, unfortunately. But my Samsung TV doesnt have a remote component so i think this is the problem. Thanks for your help ^^
Im using this card, Im trying to remove some of the buttons that appear. Ive tried going into tv-card.js and deleting the things that seem like the buttons I want to remove, but nothing happens. Any suggestions I could try?
All of the buttons are optional, can’t you just leave the ones you don’t need out of the config?
This is a fantastic remote and works better (and faster) than the ios app roku provides! Is there a way to have the power button toggle so that it displays color when the tv is on? My js is not great
Thanks again for a great card!
Not until the python package supports it.
@iantrich I love this card and use it on my two Roku devices all the time. The one thing its missing is the keyboard. Every time I need to search and type I end up switching back over to the IOS Roku app. Any chance you feel like building out a keyboard as part of it?
Possibly, the integration says it supports “literal”, which I’m assuming corresponds to the API’s “Lit_” calls: https://developer.roku.com/docs/developer-program/discovery/external-control-api.md#keypress-key-values
But I didn’t think you could provide supplemental information, like the key input, in the remote commands within HA? And looking at the source of the Roku remote integration I do see how that would work:

I sent a message to the dev who made added the Roku remote integration and we’ll see if he has any ideas as I find myself doing the same thing
Haven’t revisited it yet. Working on a rewrite of the whole card at the moment
So all my rooms are in separate tabs, whenever I open the tab for the room with the roku remote card, the input re-sends to the device. So when Im watching Netflix and then go to the tab, the roku remote will send the input and I get sent back to the netflix home page.
Has anyone had this issue?
Known issue since 0.97.
So what do I do with this exactly? Not really sure. Thanks for pulling this up though.
I’m not sure what you mean?
