I’m trying to setup a Sony VPL-PWZ10 Projector with PJLink. Here’s what I have in /config/configuration.yaml
media_player:
- platform: pjlink
host: 10.0.12.20
password: thisisnotmypassword
I’m getting this error.
Error while setting up platform pjlink

IndexError: string index out of range
I think the main part is the “string index out of range”. I have PJLink enabled in the Sony Projector through the web and I have the password set. I tried without a password and disabled the password in the Sony web interface, but Home Assistant gave an error that a password was required.
I ran a port scan and that shows port 4352 open, which is the default port for PJLink.
