Sony Bravia Authentication

[benanderson_475]

Hi, 

Why do you try Http post command to a tcp socket??

Try this, i have it working on Sony 2019 tv with no auth required as such (apart from the Xauth-psk as defined in the tv settings) also the protocol is well documented here
https://pro-bravia.sony.net/develop/inte...index.html
i just started learning lua so im sure there are some improvements to make to this script.

Change ip adress below to match tv and update ["X-Auth-PSK"] = "123456789", with your pre shared key from the tv

Code:

local http = require("socket.http") local ltn12 = require("ltn12") require('json') local path_system = "http://192.168.1.21/sony/system" local path_avContent = 'http://192.168.1.21/sony/avContent'   local payl = {     Pwr_on = [[ {"method": "setPowerStatus","id": 55,"params": [{"status": true}],"version": "1.0"} ]], --/system     Pwr_off = [[ {"method": "setPowerStatus","id": 55,"params": [{"status": false}],"version": "1.0"} ]], --/system     Pwr_req = [[ {"method": "getPowerStatus","id": 50,"params": [],"version": "1.0"} ]], --/system     Pwr_Get_system =  [[{"method": "getSystemInformation","id": 33,"params": [],"version": "1.0"}]],         Set_input_hdmi3 = [[ {"method": "setPlayContent","id": 101,"params": [{"uri": "extInput:hdmi?port=3"}],"version": "1.0"} ]], --/avContent     Set_req = [[ {"method": "getPlayingContentInfo","id": 103,"params": [],"version": "1.0"} ]],   --/avContent       vol_set = [[ {"method": "setAudioVolume","id": 98,"params": [{"volume": "5","ui": "on","target": "speaker"}],"version": "1.2"} ]], -- /audio     vol_req = [[ {"method": "getVolumeInformation", "id": 33, "params": [], "version": "1.0"} ]], -- /audio         reboot = [[ {"method": "requestReboot","id": 10,"params": [],"version": "1.0"} ]]  --/system   } --********///////////// Main Command ////////////********--  function sony_do_cmd(sony_cmd) -- 'Pwr_on' , 'Pwr_off'  for power on call function,  sony_do_cmd('Pwr_on')     -- is pwr command set url   pwr = string.match(sony_cmd, "Pwr_")   set = string.match(sony_cmd, "Set_")     if pwr then     path =  path_system     payload = payl[sony_cmd]   end     if set then     path =  path_avContent     payload = payl[sony_cmd]   end     local response_body = { }   local res, code, response_headers, status = http.request   {     url = path,     method = "POST",     headers =     {       ["Accept"] = "*/*",       ["Content-Type"] = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",       ["X-Auth-PSK"] = "123456789",       ["Content-Length"] = payload:len()     },         source = ltn12.source.string(payload),           sink = ltn12.sink.table(response_body)   }       log(json.decode(response_body))      end
