@bevvie Nice you should make a module out of that ;)

@cheapdad The forum is for crap at times… someday maybe perhaps some magical moment will occur and someone will actually fix it.

@assassins That’ll work!! Actually I’m going to move this over to my Home Assistant install because I have Ambient lighting on my TV that runs via a RP3…

Thanks!! :)

@majorc It would be :)

I used this and it worked… here’s an example:

I use a Sonos smart plug through SmartThings to turn off the Pi and turn it back on.

There are commands from the above link you can use. For instance I used commands to control my Vizio TV through Home Assistant.

Here is my ‘script’ for my TV.

- platform: command_line
  switches:
      living_room_tv:
        friendly_name: TV
        command_on: "/usr/bin/curl -k -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" -H \"AUTH: Zzbaa0sttq\" -X PUT -d '{\"KEYLIST\": [{\"CODESET\": 11,\"CODE\": 1,\"ACTION\":\"KEYPRESS\"}]}' https://192.168.1.20:7345/key_command/"
        command_off: "/usr/bin/curl -k -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" -H \"AUTH: Zzbaa0sttq\" -X PUT -d '{\"KEYLIST\": [{\"CODESET\": 11,\"CODE\": 0,\"ACTION\":\"KEYPRESS\"}]}' https://192.168.1.20:7345/key_command/"
        command_state: "/usr/bin/curl -k -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" -H \"AUTH: Zzbaa0sttq\" -X GET https://192.168.1.20:7345/state/device/power_mode"
        value_template: >
          {% if value_json.ITEMS.0.VALUE == 1 %}
            true
          {% else %}
            false
          {% endif %}

You can do the same to control the pi :)

@tholbear I tried it that night and it was NOT loading the data for that one day for some reason.
