Panasonic Viera TV IP control

[admin]

You can use this function to check if given TCP port on your device is accepting connections:

Code:

function socketping(ip, port, timeout)
  local sock = require('socket').tcp()
  sock:settimeout(timeout or 2)
  local res, err = sock:connect(ip, port)
  sock:close()
  
  return res, err
end

IP = '192.168.1.10'
PORT = 55000
status = socketping(IP, PORT)
