Hello,

Raspberry Pi rev3
Domoticz: V4.10686
Samsung TV: UE48H6400AW


I would like to integrate my Samsung TV to Domoticz.
First thing is that when i tried to use "samsungctl" i cannot see Samsung TV in type drop down list in hardware tab of Domoticz.
What i did:
- on raspberry:
sudo pip3 install samsungctl
sudo cp -r /usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/samsungctl/ /usr/lib/python3.4/
this didn't work as python was installed in version 3.5, so i run:
sudo cp -r /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/samsungctl/ /usr/lib/python3.5/
sudo service domoticz restart
I went back to Domoticz\Hardware and still couldn't see Samsung TV on the drop down list.

Second thing is that i am not sure if i can use samsungctl to control my TV. according to: https://github.com/Ape/samsungctl/wiki/Supported-Models
my Series H Samsung TV is not supported.
Do You have some kind of workaround/solution for this integration?

Best
Lukasz

take a look there :
https://github.com/kdschlosser/samsungctl/tree/develop
this one should be able to manage series H TV.

Will check on my side to see if can update my plugin and use this version ....
