I installed python plugin SamsungTV and it's ok but I want to use the Kodi remote but I have this message :

But I don't know how to defined this commande ?

Thx

Hello when tying to run
sudo samsungctl -i --host 192.168.X.X --port 8001 --method websocket
I get this as a result

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/samsungctl", line 11, in <module>
    load_entry_point('samsungctl==0.6.0', 'console_scripts', 'samsungctl')()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/samsungctl/__main__.py", line 93, in main
    config = _read_config()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/samsungctl/__main__.py", line 37, in _read_config
    except FileNotFoundError:
NameError: global name 'FileNotFoundError' is not defined

it looks like the plugin is trying to use python 2.7 even though python 3 is installed

I also tryed this https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-change-f ... bian-linux but this didn't turned out to be a sollution.

anyone have any idea what could be the issue?

[edit] somehowe i could install samsungctl again with pip install samsungctl
and the same goes for websocket

also when testing from the commandline it works and i see responce on my TV but the plugin gives the folowing error in the log

Code: Select all

[Edit 2] i found the problem, i overlooked one line in the wiki

sudo cp -r /usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/samsungctl/ /usr/lib/python3.4/

Hi,

I don't know what's happen but I create a folder SamsungTV but when I reboot my raspberry this folder is automatically delete !

I'm lost....

EDIT : It's the same with domoticz ... if I add a switch for exemple it's remove if I reboot my raspberry

[zak45]

Looks like your Domoticz re install at each boot !! ??

[sennheiser]

Looks like my raspberry is in read only mode !
I tried to install the new beta domoticz software... after this installation, it was ok but after the raspberry reboot I was back at the last version of domoticz.

EDIT : I was clone my SD CARD and it's ok with the new SD CARD ! ...

I found the problem. now there is no error, but the commands not work (only ON command working)

I use the following script to turn off the tv

Code: Select all

samsungctl --method websocket --host 192.168.x.x --port 8001 -v KEY_POWER

Depending on your version of TV you might need to change the method parameter and the port.

Hello felix63,

I try:
C:\WINDOWS\system32>samsungctl --method websocket --host 192.168.1.189 --port 8001 -v KEY_POWER
Sending control command: KEY_POWER

But nothing happens.
I have 2017 model, 75mu7000
someone know what i'm doing wrong ?

Thanks for the help

[felix63]

Sorry... difficult to answer that question. I am running on linux not windows. And without any other than 'nothing happens' it's difficult to debug. Can't help you out.

Are you trying to switch it on or off? is that the only one button that does not work?
some models does not support wake up on lan, especially if you have it WiFi connected (the interface is down while tv is off)
If you're trying to switch it off... ensure the remote connection is enabled and the plugin is paired with the device

'onCommand' failed 'ImportError'

Looks like you do not have copied in the folder that can be found by the plugin system. Please take a look at the wiki.
