homebridge-philipstv

Homebridge module for Philips TV (with JointSpace enabled)

Description

This plugin is basically a modification of homebridge-http. Main difference is:

• Ability to poll every 5 min a PhilipsTV
• Ability to sent on Standbye command
• If no answer is received, the power state is set to false
• If any answer is received, the power state is set to true

Update

Added power-on function for models after 2014 (thanks to uronito - https://github.com/uronito )

Installation

1. Install homebridge using: npm install -g homebridge
2. Install this plugin using: npm install -g homebridge-philipstv
3. Update your configuration file. See the sample below.

Configuration

Example accessory config for models before 2014 (needs to be added to the homebridge config.json):

   {
   	"accessory": "PhilipsTV",
   	"name": "My Philips TV",
   	"ip_address": "10.0.1.23",
   	"poll_status_interval": "60",
   	"model_year" : "2013"
   }
]
