Wake on LAN for TV 46PFL9705H/12 ? not working.. :(

Third party integrations
1

I am trying to do automation at home using HomeAssistant, so I need to switch off and switch on my 2012 Philips tv 46PFL9705H/12:
https://www.philips.it/c-p/46PFL9705H_12/serie-9000-tv-led-con-ambilight-spectra-3-e-perfect-pixel-hd-engine

I have enable jointSPACE using this procedure:
https://philips-tvconsumercare.kxondemand.com/Portal/en/Faq/All/3073

And it works fine!!

But I cannot turn it on using Wake On Lan, even if it is connected to the same LAN, i used the turn on action with the MAC address of the TV:


´´´
media_player:
  • platform: philips_js
    host: 192.168.1.99
    turn_on_action:
    service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet
    data:
    mac: aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
    ´´´

Any clues or experiences if this works ?

Same here, but for a 50PUS7504 series

This also didn’t do the trick:

To use this integration in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
wake_on_lan:

And yes; I enabled WOL on the tv :crazy_face:

you could try to compile/install


/opt/scripts/JSTx-0.24/JSTx -k 12 --remote=PUTYPURIP

should switch standby mode…

Hi, I am trying to switch on my PhilipsTV 32PFS6905/12 and i write the folowing code:

media_player:
  - platform: philips_js
    name: PhilipsTV 32
    host: 192.168.0.80
    turn_on_action:
      service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet
      data:
        mac: aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff

(obviusly I put in my code the correct mac address) but when I clik for turn on the tv, home assistant show me this error:

Call to service is failed media_player/turn_on . Unable to find service wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet

Can help me please? Thank you very much

You may want to try - instead of : in the mac address.

I created a switch with the following code to turn the TV on and off:

switch:
  - platform: template
    switches:
      tv_slaapkamer:
        value_template: "{{ is_state('media_player.tv_slaapkamer', 'on') }}"
        turn_on:
          service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet
          data:
            mac: xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx
        turn_off:
          service: media_player.turn_off
          target:
            entity_id: media_player.tv_slaapkamer

Change the entity ID with the ID of your own TV and use your own mac address with - as separators

Hello Eric,

will this work with the new Philips Generation which only supports WOWLan?

Did you manage to get it to work?
I’m on a new TV that only has the WoWlan option and having real difficulty

no doesnt seem to work with WonLAN so guess you will have to workaround with a Smart Plug

I’m currently using the following script :

alias: Wake Studio TV
sequence:
  - repeat:
      until:
        - condition: or
          conditions:
            - condition: not
              conditions:
                - condition: state
                  entity_id: media_player.android_tv_192_168_1_3
                  state: unavailable
            - condition: template
              value_template: "{{ repeat.index > 10 }}"
      sequence:
        - service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet
          data:
            broadcast_port: 9
            mac: 70:aa:11:32:b1:63
        - delay:
            hours: 0
            minutes: 0
            seconds: 0
            milliseconds: 500
  - delay:
      hours: 0
      minutes: 0
      seconds: 1
      milliseconds: 0
  - service: media_player.turn_on
    data: {}
    target:
        entity_id: media_player.android_tv_192_168_1_3
mode: single

media_player.android_tv_192_168_1_3 is the Android ADB integration (Android TV - Home Assistant) setup for the TV (although I imagine you might be able to just use the normal Philips TV Entity)

I found some info saying that if you ping the tv after it has been off for a while it won’t work and the network interface has been turned off. However when you send the wakeonlan it wakes the TV network interface and ping starts to work (it doesn’t start the TV).

Once that happens and I see the Android ADB become available I then use that to turn on the TV.

To avoid constant wake on lans - I only try 10 times or until the TV turns on and there is a 500ms pause between each wake on lan packet.
