Samsung TV LAN Control

Post by MrGangster »

Hello,

I have written a little Plugin for my Samsung B650 TV to Control a few settings over the LAN interface.
Without Change any Setting on your Device. You don't need to Hack your TV.
Simply enter the IP-Address of your TV.

You can Control:
-Volume
-Mute
-Brightness
-Contrast
-Sharpness
-ColorTemperature
via a UPNP/SOAP Request.

The Info's are taken from this Forum:
http://forum.samygo.tv/viewtopic.php?f= ... 170#p21299

I tested an developed this with a Samsung LE46B650

I'm new in coding Phyton. The Source Code ist not perfect. But it works.
Feel free to optimize the Code.

Interesting.

I've been working on something similar: Network based remote control.

I haven't fully tested it yet - it should work. I was think of going the upnp/soap way or even a Samsung plugin. I am still thinking the Samsung plug-in because it could lead to much better integration.

@gmyx
The "old" B-Series support only the UPNP-way.
There is no built-in way to inject the Remotebuttons over the LAN-Interfrace.
The only way is to install a "samygo.tv" App called "Remote LAN Control".
But you have to execute the App every time the TV Restarts. For a Autorun you have to modify the Firmware.
I doesn't like that...


@Pastis
Thanks for the reply... :-)
I'm happy that you could use it.
