Hi! While integrating my HW-S60D soundbar, I discovered there was no existing integration using the local LAN control protocol—so I built one.
It should be compatible with the following models: HW-Q990D · HW-Q930D · HW-Q800D · HW-QS730D · HW-S800D · HW-S801D · HW-S700D · HW-S60D · HW-S61D · HW-LS60D.
The integration is available via HACS.

This is AMAZING!
Since Samsung butchered API access, my soundbar has been a sore spot on my home automations.
Just so you are aware:
I have a 2024 HW Q990D and the following works:
-eARC
-BT
The rest don’t seem to work for me. I have a device connected on HDMI1 (not the eARC port) and it does not seem to be able to switch to it.
So excited for this and to see where it goes!
Hi, thanks for feedback. I don’t have that fully featured soundbar to try, but I tried to fix those inputs. It’s kind of reverse engineering and writing code with one eye covered 
It works PERFECTLY!
I almost got rid of this soundbar after Samsung botched the API. You are AMAZING!!
I have control over both sound bars (HW-Q850D and HW-Q800D), but home assistant is not recognizing them as media players and I cannot play announcements/radio/media/music assistant media to them.
Hi there. I have a 930C and 990C and am wondering what changes might be required for control of those devices? I tried connecting using this add on but the connect call failed. Thanks!
Same here.
The interface is available from D on.
For us using C it is just not possible to use this integration.
What a pity.
Still looking for a way to set the source right depending on the device I am using.
samsung qs 710f here connected over wifi
ha shows media entityt but doesnt play any announcement / notications
throws an error showing not possible
Entity media_player.q_series_soundbar_2 does not support action media_player.play_media.
It works with HW-Q930D !!
Volume, Input selecction and turn off works
Works with Q990F !
Thanks you !
Is it possible to add the audio synchronization option?
I too have the Q990F, and it works perfectly. I have also been able to integrate it into my Unfolded Circle Remote 3. Thank you very much @ZtF
Hi, I have a HW-S800D. The device gets configured, as per HA, but I only get the error message that says that it couldn’t configure successfully
Échec de la configuration, nouvel essai: Cannot connect to host 10.1.1.113:1516 ssl:False [Connect call failed (‘[ip address]’, 1516)]
I’m possibly doing something wrong but I can’t configure my soundbar.
How did you folks did?
C’est bon, ChatGPT m’a aidé. Je ne savais pas qu’il fallait activer “Commande IP”. En fait, je ne savais pas qu’elle avait cette option!
Maybe because Soundbars are not a MediaPlayer
Ok, i wonder why, i could understand if they were exposed as a speaker, but maybe there are some with i.e builtin storage and online-channels
Yes it does work as a speaker and source for alexa
