Re: Controlling a SamyGO TV through Home Assistant
@mad_ady, hi there. As I'm using mostly a soundbar to connect my devices, I'm not controlling my telly with samygo at all. Regarding to those changes you suggested, please feel free to take the code and create another repository if you want to maintain it :-) I must say that I don't think there's a ...

Re: Controlling a SamyGO TV through Home Assistant
If the mappings are the same inside the same product line, a flag to choose what to use would do fine I suppose! That leaves users to select what outputs they want to have visible, if that's not to be parsed out similarly to what that hidesources library does. That would require further changes, so ...

Re: Controlling a SamyGO TV through Home Assistant
I haven't had time to play with it, but I looked over wether you can swith sources without going through the sources menu. And you can! By injecting keys. The following work for me: KEY_TV - switches to TV KEY_AV1 - switches to EXT KEY_COMPONENT1 - switches to Component (though it's disabled for me...

Re: Controlling a SamyGO TV through Home Assistant
Ok, let me know what you think! I looked into libHideSources earlier and it would indeed be possible to parse its log file generated (however, it has to be injected during the boot up while LIST is being set). I did not do that as the listing was way too broad and it was showing a lot of entries whi...

Re: Controlling a SamyGO TV through Home Assistant
I wrote a preliminary mediaplayer component just to see how it would work. The basic functionality is already there, what would be nice to have is a list of available sources (I was considering parsing the output from libHideSources, but it displays way too much information...) to make switching the...

Re: Controlling a SamyGO TV through Home Assistant
Merging with the rest sensor sounds indeed ideal! I'm unsure how to use another "platform" inside a media_player, but in principle it will just allow an easy and stable API for common media player commands so it should be doable. I'll create issues / submit patches to your repository when ...

Re: Controlling a SamyGO TV through Home Assistant
Hey, that looks great! Do you have plans to push this towards the official homeassistant distribution at some point (would probably require converting it to a `mediaplayer` platform)? If so and you need help with it, I'll be there for it if I'll manage to root my H-series.
