Ruby cers API for Sony TVs © Luke Mcildoon 2012 - MIT licenced
Some ethernet/wifi-enabled Sony TVs have a webserver running on them for remote control from mobile devices. This is a super-simple work-in-progress interface into everything it exposes.
In typical Sony fashion, there's a security system in place that the device has to "pair" with the TV before it can issue commands. However, if you know the MAC address of a paired device, the TV doesn't actually check that the command came from that MAC address, only checking a HTTP header sent in the request.
tv_ip = "192.168.0.37"
fake_mac = "c0-01-fa-ce-d0-0d"
device = RubyCersTv::Device.new(tv_ip,fake_mac)
# send pairing request (will need to accept using the TV remote)
device.register(fake_mac)
# get encoded IR commands
device.get_remote_command_list
# => [{"name"=>"Confirm", "value"=>"AAAAAQAAAAEAAABlAw==", "type"=>"ircc"}, ... ]
# send encoded IR commands
device.send_ircc("AAAAAQAAAAEAAABlAw==")
# TODO: handle 'url' commands- Fork it
