SamsungTV custom component

This is a custom component compatible with Samsung QLED TVs. This is still a work in progress and sometimes you might have issues. To get all features you must connect your TV to Smartthings.
This component is inspired by the work of @xchwarze, @jaruba and @pegatron89.

Features

  • Turn ON/OFF (WOL, KEY input ot Smartthings)
  • Return State (ping TV or Smartthings)
  • Send KEY
  • Get current source (Smartthings)
  • Change source (Smartthings)
  • Set and get volume value
  • Launch applications
  • Applications can be set as sources
  • Play music and video from an url
  • Get audio profile

What the component can't do:

  • change audio profile (yet)
  • change video profile
  • lots of remote KEYs can't be used on QLED TVs

Installation (manual)

  1. Download the custom_components folder
  2. Copy the samsungtv_qled folder within your custom_components folder in your config directory. Your config directory should look like the following.
└── configuration.yaml
└── custom_components
    └── samsungtv_qled
        └── samsungtvctl
        └── __init__.py
        └── manifest.json
