I want to share with you my LUA scripts for turning on/off a Sony Bravia TV. I created and tested this with a KDL-50W815B model, but i'm sure this will work with lots of other network connected Sony Bravia models.
My solution consists of two scripts. The first one is a time script that updates the status in Domoticz when the TV was turned on or off via another remote. The second script is a device script that can actually turn the television on and off.
The scripts are made for Domoticz on the Raspberry Pi, but may also work on other Linux/Unix distros.
Prerequisites:
- Create a virtual switch (On/Off) named "TV"
- Create a user variable (integer) named "TVOnlyStatusUpdate", with value 0
- Install etherwake (sudo apt-get install etherwake)
- Enable remote start on your TV: [Settings] → [Network] → [Home Network Setup] → [Remote Start] → [On]
- Enable pre-shared key on your TV: [Settings] → [Network] → [Home Network Setup] → [IP Control] → [Authentication] → [Normal and Pre-Shared Key]
- Set pre-shared key on your TV: [Settings] → [Network] → [Home Network Setup] → [IP Control] → [Pre-Shared Key] → [sony]
- Give your TV a static IP address, or make a DHCP reservation for a specific IP address in your router.
- Determine the MAC address of your TV: [Settings] → [Network] → [Network Setup] → [View Network Status]
What you need to adjust in the scripts:
- In script 2, set the MAC address of your TV. Update the following to match the MAC address: 'etherwake ab:12:34:56
78'. - In both scripts set the url to match the IP address of your TV.
- I used 'sony' as pre-shared key in this example, but you can define your own pre-shared key. When you do so, make sure to update this in both scripts. (headervalue = 'sony')

This works great on my KDL-50W829B.
. Now it works!
