A Sony Bravia Android Smart-TV adapter for ioBroker

This is an ioBroker adapter for your Sony Bravia Smart-TV with Android OS. Tested with KD-65X8507C.

TV Setup

  • Turn on your TV
  • On the TV go to Settings > Network > Home network setup > Remote device/Renderer > On
  • On the TV go to Settings > Network > Home network setup > IP Control > Authentication > Normal and Pre-Shared Key
  • On the TV go to Settings > Network > Home network setup > Remote device/Renderer > Enter Pre-Shared Key > 0000 (or whatever you want your PSK Key to be)
  • On the TV go to Settings > Network > Home network setup > Remote device/Renderer > Simple IP Control > On

Channel tv (for visualizations)

Besides the existing objects the adapter creates the channel sony-bravia.0.tv. It follows the device type tv of the ioBroker type-detector, so visualizations (e.g. vis-2 material widgets) and the devices adapter recognize the TV and can control it:

StateRoleMeaning
tv.powerswitch.powerSwitch the TV on/off (needs "Remote start" / network standby to switch on)
tv.keymedia.keySend a key: UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, SELECT, BACK, HOME, NUMBER_1, ...
tv.volumelevel.volumeVolume of the speakers, 0-100 %
tv.mutedmedia.muteMute
tv.volumeUp, tv.volumeDownbutton.volume.up / .downVolume buttons
tv.inputmedia.inputInput: TV, SAT, HDMI1...HDMI4, AV, COMPONENT, SCART (the ones the TV has)
tv.appmedia.appStart an app: YOUTUBE, NETFLIX, PRIME_VIDEO, ... (the ones installed on the TV)
tv.unreachindicator.maintenance.unreachThe TV does not answer
