Philips Android TV component

elupus · May 31, 2021, 7:05pm

Sorry. 401 is unauthorized. Where did you get that number? Is it in home assistant logs? Or did you just try it manually with curl?

bramski · May 31, 2021, 7:23pm

I am sorry meant 400 bad request.
Also see my post from some time ago, which did not get any response. Here are some more details.

I also tried with curl getting the same response

I’ve been using this component and the ambilight component for a while now, but since updating Home Assistant, it isn’t working anymore.

I’m getting these errors when checking the config:

Platform error media_player.philips_android_tv - Integration 'philips_android_tv' not found.
Platform error light.philips_ambilight - Integration 'philips_ambilight' not found.

The logs says this:

2021-06-05 13:26:09 WARNING (SyncWorker_3) [homeassistant.loader] We found a custom integration philips_ambilight which has not been tested by Home Assistant. This component might cause stability problems, be sure to disable it if you experience issues with Home Assistant

Do we need to wait for an update for the version key? Of can I fix it myself?

More than 100X appears in 2 hours of watching TV

PizzaPino · July 22, 2021, 9:11am

I still lose connection after the newest updates.
Also somehow once in a while the ambilight now turns on and immediately turns off again.

edit: I know the reason why now. When I turn off the Ambilight even though it’s already off, the light turns on and immidiately off again.

tmcmaster · August 11, 2021, 8:51am

Hi man, Was this the fix?

PizzaPino · August 13, 2021, 1:56pm

I don’t know if you changed anything in the back but the integration doesn’t lose connection for me anymore after days and I even restarted my tv in between.

@elupus is it possible to see the state of an app? e.g. playing, paused, stopped, idle, etc.

elupus · August 13, 2021, 8:22pm

It doesn’t use notifications unless you opt into it from config entry options.

So it’s slower to react to changes.

No playing state doesn’t work for apps at all. The current intent data from the API is utterly unreliable.

PizzaPino · August 13, 2021, 8:33pm

ah that’s too bad because your integration reacts so much faster than the Android ADB integration.
Anyway I’m really glad the connection is stable now. Thanks for your work!

If it’s possible for the ambilight integration to not turn on the light during a turn off call (even though it’s already off) then that would be perfect for me.

elupus · August 13, 2021, 8:49pm

The ambilight solution in the tv is stupidly buggy. Maybe controlling it over the menu:s is less buggy. Might be worth a shot.

PizzaPino · August 20, 2021, 10:29am

sometimes I’m wondering what the development department of Philips TVs looks like.

Kardesken · August 25, 2021, 6:09pm

How is your Philips TV integration working?

For the last month or so, this integration only works for like 20-30 min after I restart HA. After that i loose “connection”. Don’t know if this started with 2021.7 or 2021.8.
Are there more people that experience this behaviour, or is something wrong with my system?

brano1990 · August 27, 2021, 8:56am

@Kardesken same problem

Hello, I also have a problem when I integrate Philips TV, everything works for about 4 days, then the TV is already in HA offline. It will only help to turn off the TV from 230. The problem will probably be with the API,
the original mobile application is still functional, only HA will lose communication.

does anyone have the same problem?

Molodax · August 27, 2021, 11:05am

Very similar experience when TV becomes randomly unavailable in HA and can be fixed by only restarting HA or the TV itself.
Also, it seems that in such case the official component gives an error “TV unavailable” during an attempt e.g. turn on/off ambilight or the TV itself. This error breaks further execution of any automation or script that called such command.
Previously I used custom Philips TV component that didn’t have all features from the official one but was reliable in terms of keeping connection with TV and reporting on/off status.

brano1990 · August 27, 2021, 11:06am

I only need to report the ON / OF status

manual how do i do it?

Kardesken · August 29, 2021, 2:23pm

I have temporarily disabled the official Philips TV integration, as it is too unreliable for any automation at the moment.

So I’ve returned back to the custom integration for now. This will give me an reliable feedback on the On/Off status of the TV.

brano1990 · August 31, 2021, 12:12pm

how did you do that?custom integration you send the manual?

Kardesken · August 31, 2021, 12:35pm

You’ll find Philips Android TV component if you search in HACS.
It’s also more or less what this thread is (or was) all about .

But the thread is long, so here is the link: Philips Android TV
