New Tizen sources - USB-C & DisplayPort #644
Comments
I was going to write the same. |
I was about to open a new issue for this. |
You can set whatever you want in the config file (https://tavicu.github.io/homebridge-samsung-tizen/features/inputs.html#input-type) I don't have a TV with USB-C or DisplayPort but I guess the values are If you do find the correct inputs please let me know so I can add them to the list. |
Thanks.
How do I see the list of available options for my device you mentioned? BTW smarthings app showing "PC USB-C" when connected to the PC with USB-C and "Netflix" when on Netflix app. |
Try to enable debug mode - https://tavicu.github.io/homebridge-samsung-tizen/troubleshooting/open-new-issue.html#enable-debug-mode |
Thanks. I am getting the following: [04/12/2023, 15:33:02] [Samsung M8] The request is malformed. Setting the value to USB gets a response (no error in homebridge logs) and the display shows a Tizen pop-up "USB is not available". I just found that this issue is connected to the following one: |
Well unfortunately if Samsung don't allow you to select the USB-C input through SmartThings api ... I don't know what else I could do. There must be a specific api available only for monitor or something since you can select it from their app. Do you have a button on your physical remote? Or only the inputs button? |
Not a direct physical button, only using the home button and going from "Media" to "Workspace" (up arrow) and selecting "PC". As you wrote, indeed "PC" is available (and works smoothly) on the SmartThings app under "Sources and Apps" just next to Netflix and etc. As I see in the other posts this issue is probably the same on all the different M5, M7 and M8 models. Is it possible for you to ask Samsung about the right API to use ? |
This is a dream ... Samsung don't provide anything and want's to force users to use only SmartThings app. Even the current API that we are using for local control we (developers) had to dig and listen to what requests TVs make. And it's still working because Samsung use it too with their SmartThings app, otherwise they would have removed it by now. Another example is with Frame TVs that had an awesome API to get the status and then Samsung decided to remove the API from TVs, even pushed and update for older TVs to remove the API. So if you are searching for a new TV and you ask me, I would say avoid Samsung. They want to keep you locked in their garden. You could create a custom command that sends a list of keys (what keys you would press on the physical remote). For example: Input Key, ... (next keys to reach USB-C input), enter key |
Please add new input sources that are available in Samsung Tizen Monitors - "USB-C", "DisplayPort".
I can help with testing and developing it.
Api is working really well with this smart monitor, but is missing those two crucial inputs.
