I found for a other home automation a script where you can send notifications to the LG tv. A very cool thing. But I have no idea how to include that in domoticz or the LG tv script. Maybe some one other have the know how to include that. I would spend some money onver PayPal.

Hello
Thanks for your great Job .
I would like to know How you did to command your TV ...
I mean Now that is working ,what is the next step ?
I do not think that people do cli to change channel
Maybe integration on alexa ?

What should be the next step for that any idea ?

I'm using pylgtv (https://github.com/TheRealLink/pylgtv) for notifications. Not sure about the best way to set it up, but I have a python script (lgnotify.py):

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/env python3
from pylgtv import WebOsClient
import sys

try:
    webos_client = WebOsClient('xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx')
    webos_client.send_message(str(sys.argv[1]), icon_path="/home/pi/domoticz/scripts/domoticz.png")
except:
    print("Error connecting to TV")

which I then call from event system (i.e. form Lua scripts, or Blockly), e.g.

Code: Select all

os.execute('/usr/bin/python3 /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/lgnotify.py "This is my message!" &')

I think the icon is optional but if you want to specify certain icon to be shown with the notification you need to specify it here: icon_path="/home/pi/domoticz/scripts/domoticz.png" I'm currently using just a plain domoticz icon for all notifications.

Hello,

I have finally managed to connect my LGTV and Domoticz, but the interface respond is very-very slow. I dont know where is the problem. I have reinstalled pylgtv (sudo pip3 uninstall pylgtv) first and than install it again. But it didn't help. In my domoticz I can see the status of the TV, volume and option to change the inputs but every time when I click on any of them it takes number of seconds until anything happen on the TV. I'm running my Domoticz on RPI3 but I don't thing the problem is with my HW. Any ideas? Any help is much appreciated. Thanx!

Problem solved after another clean instalation.
Plugin works fine, downloaded from :

Code: Select all

https://github.com/GameDevHobby/Domoticz-LGTV-WebOS-Plugin

I just don't know how to do automatic pairing with the TV, I have to confirm pairing every time I start it.
I found a modified lg.py file, it has automatic pairing but unfortunately it doesn't work.

[Romel]

remote control in domoticz panel can switch channel UP and DOWN . Volume is working too.. but button OK not. Is there some script to control own command ? for example - switch channel no 31, set volume to 8.

EDIT:
ok. I found:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/python3 /home/pi/domoticz/plugins/LGTV/lg.py -c send-message -a "Message shown on TV" 192.168.88.214

Here are commands

How I can use set-channel ?

Hi,

I installed Domoticz-LGTV-WebOS-Plugin from scratch (including pylgtv libary) and defined IP + MAC address within Domoticz hardware configuration. However, I'm not able to get my TV show the pairing code no matter what I tried.

Any tips?

Thanks

@Mayki

Does it work for anyone on the new TV? For example, OLEDC9?

It did not work well on my OLEDE9. I've made some changes and you can find it at my fork of this project. I hope the creator of the plugin will merge it with the original. My new plugin might not work well with older LG TVs.
I included a few new sources like Disney+, Spotify, Apple TV, and the LG app PhotoVideo .

It's on : https://github.com/bramvreugd/Domoticz- ... bOS-Plugin

[drwurn]

I've got this running on my B9.

The data on the LG TV STATUS is '{'returnValue': True} ({'returnValue': False, 'errorCode': -106, 'errorText': 'No resource: 9A8adAeFA301AFE6Ba348d857362Dd5'} )'

I've only got the status and source, fine by me because I only use the status to dim one light in the room when the TV is on.

How do you change it? I need buttons for SkyQ and Plex

[bramv]

If you want them to be added to the pull down list it's easy.

First turn on debugging in domoticz. Then start the app you want to add on the LG TV.
Search for the text: "App: " in the logging of domoticz. The text after the semicolon you have to remember.

Now open the plugin.py file. Add the name of the app you want to add just before unknown in the following line.

"LevelNames" : "Off|TV|HDMI1

Change the following lines. The bold text is added or changed. If you add another please be sure you update unknown to 160

elif "photovideo" in self.tvPlaying.lower():
self.tvSource = 130
UpdateDevice(3, 1, str(self.tvSource))
elif <a part form the tet you found in the debugger" in self.tvPlaying.lower():
self.tvSource = 140
UpdateDevice(3, 1, str(self.tvSource))
else:
self.tvSource = 150
UpdateDevice(3, 1, str(self.tvSource)) # Set source device to Unknown

add after the lines
if Level == 130:
self.tvPlaying = "PhotoVideo"
self.run("app", "com.webos.app.photovideo")
add the following lines:
if Level == 140:
self.tvPlaying = <you appname>
self.run("app", "<the text from the debugger>")

and add 10 to the level of unknown.
if Level == 140:

you can restart a plugin by disabling it then click update. Enable it and click update again.

You can also send the text from the debugger to me and I will do it for you.
I can also change the plugin with an extra option where you can add extra sources.

I'm working on an almost complete rewrite of the LG tv plugin.
Is there anyone who like to test it or have a feature requests.

Status so far.
-Inclusief pylgtv library because of is no longer maintained and it had soms bugs in it.
Of is also a little faster because pylgtv is inckuded instead of running a new python for each command.
- status device now reports also the program you are watching.
- extra device in witch you can select witch tv channel hou want to see.

Possible thjngs to do:

- Code cleanup. There was a lot of code of the bravia plugin that should be removed.
- now the channel includes all posibilities of channels of tv, radio and satelite. That is a long list in my csse because all HD channels are also broadcasted in SD. It's several hjndreds long.. I plan to make a filter in which you van filter to have only High definition (no SD) and no radio.
- Maybe all the radio chanels in seperate device
- Custom screen with all remore buttons.

[Nautilus]

Sounds excellent. If it is compatible with B7 model I'd be happy to test...
