Samsung TV Remote Control

Configuration

Here is my first attempt at a contribution, thought I would post this here to help save the next person an hour or two doing this

Using the native SamsungTV integration to get the ability to call the remote and this TV Card HACS Add-on

Was able to create a simple remote control lovelace ui card

Having the same issue as Paul : only buttons left/right/up/down and no reaction if I click the button. Any idea?

I had the same issue as the two above, but I found out I added the wrong tv-card through HACS. The correct name of the card in HACS is “TV Remote Card (with touchpad and haptic feedback)”, not to be confused by “TV Remove Card”. "TV Remote Card (with touchpad and haptic feedback) " is a fork of “TV Remote Card”

I linked the card in my post from the start
