Here's the SONY TV IP Control. I know it works on 2016+. Still working on the feedback.

Hi,

I created a generic Ip Device with the Ip Adress of my Tv and the port 20060.

I imported your codes, and tested them in the software. They do not work.

Am i missing something.

I got the KDX559005.


Thank you

I use port 80 and you need to set a label called "SonyTV.Selected" to the ip address of your TV.

From there it works...

Ok for the port but what do you mean by setting the label to the ip adress of the TV?

[cdeslong]

I have more than one Sony IP TV, so I use a label to change the ip address within the commands to control the various TVs. That way you can control multiple TVs with the same device.

Could you please post a screenshot how you set up the label?

Would be great

Thx

I just replaced the Host in the code of yours to my Ip Dress of my Television. Unfortunately the commands do not work?
Could you please advise what I'm doing wrong? I would really like to control my KD55X9005 through IP.

Here is what I send:

Here is what I receive as data:

You could use the low level HTTP Protocol. It allows you to send the HEX commands to Sony TV and i tested on my TV yesterday and it works fine. Change the termination to \xOA in the device and use port 20060. This is all the majority of the commands listed on the Bravia IP integration notes. If you are just looking simple control and use of the features of the TV set it may be easier option. Hope it helps

Thanks for posting the Hex commands PeterK - they worked a treat.

However, I'm missing a couple of commands for my 2018 model, namely: Action Menu and Apps.

Could you tell me where you got hold of the information. I've searched high and low and I can't find anything published by Sony. Why is this stuff so hard to find?

Thanks in advance,
Ric

Ok I need to check this out! I hope I can try it today! Happy to see there could be a solution

For iRile, I needed to add the Sony “Video and TV SideView : Remote” app added to my iPad and sync’d to my TV in order to get the high level http commands to work. Do I still need this app for Demopad?
