Check the status of television in LM3! - phongvucba - 14.07.2016

please help me!
Hope everyone has opinions to this problem Sad

Sad

!
To determine the status of television, we use the TCP protocol. If the TV is on, the status will return to 1, otherwise it will be empty:
sock = socket.tcp ()
sock: setTimeout (1)
status = sock: connect ('100.100.100.92', 55000)
if status == 1 then --- Tivi on
....v...v....
But there are some television via TCP is impossible. turn off the TV when the status remains 1.
In this case, the TCP protocol can not be used anymore. If anyone has encountered this case (Sony TV) and there are workarounds, please help me.

I am very thankful.! Heart

Hi,

When NIC is turned off in stand-by we use a chromecast in a HDMI port
and we send a command to the device that causes the tv to turn on again.

From there you can use normal NIC again (:

This is a € 35,- solution

==============================================
I mean, when the TV is in standby mode (or sleep), the NIC still on (value 1) I want NIC = 0. from which we determine when to turn on the tv (tv on the NIC = 1).
"We use a HDMI port in a chromecast", you can specify how to do it? Thank you so much!
Who are somehow via USB, HDMI, UDP, TCP another, which can identify the TV on and off. Can guide me?
Thank so much! everyone!

Hi Phongvucba.

Here is a script example for controlling Chromecast:

Code:
-- ****** Control Chromecast with 1 byte object version 1.0 created by Erwin van der Zwart ******* --
-- **************************************** SET PARAMETERS *************************************** --

-- Chromecast IP address
ip_chromecast = '192.168.10.23'

require 'socket.http'

function control_chromecast(uri, request)
  local request_body = request
  local response_body = { }
  local res, code, response_headers = socket.http.request
  {
    url = "http://" .. ip_chromecast .. ":8008/" .. uri;

    };
    source = ltn12.source.string(request_body);
    sink = ltn12.sink.table(response_body);
  }
  return res, code, response_headers
end

-- Action on value 1
if value == 1 then
    -- Start Youtube video
    res, code, response_headers = control_chromecast('apps/YouTube', [[v=_iuBO1lkch8]])
end

-- Action on value 2

end

-- Action on value 3
if value == 3 then
    -- Start Chromecast Homescreen
    res, code, response_headers = control_chromecast('apps/ChromeCast', [[]])
end

-- Log results
resulthandling = false

if resulthandling == true then
  -- Handler for results
  log("Status:", res and "OK" or "FAILED")
  log("HTTP code:", code)

Thank you very much !
I have the following code, via UDP:
sock = socket.udp ()
sock: setTimeout (1)
status = sock: connect ('192.168.10.10', 5353)
== 1 if status bars --- TV on
--tivi else off
Similar to TCP, the code is correct?
thank so much

Hi Erwin,

it would be nice if you can post an example for this three commands.

TV Off, TV On and TV State

I've read a little bit about the dial protocol, but I don't want to control apps on the chromecast. I want to integrate this commands written above in my scene/device controls.

Thx4forwards :-)
