Unplug everything from the back of the cable box. Wait a minute or two. Plug it all back in. Let it reload. My sound came right back on. I have an lg. Smart tv and Im on direct tv. Had great sound for netflix. No sound for tv programs
If you have cable or satellite try unplugging everything connected to your cable or satellite box. Wait a minute or two, then reconnect. I had this same problem & it restored the sound on my TCL Roku TV. I have Spectrum cable.
I did not have tv sound, but Netflix sound on my TCV roku tv. I unplugged the HDM! cable and the power cord to the back of the cable box. I came back a few minutes later and plugged them both back in. Success!!
It has been discovered and i can turn it on and off but i want to know what i need to do in order to create scripts/automations or whatever i need to do to setup buttons on my home assistant dashboard to directly select apps like netflix and use navigation keys up down left right etc.
Of the 1.2% of user using this integration perhaps nobody has tried what you want to accomplish. Perhaps if you showed us what you tried that filed along with any errors others could assist, you need to understand your system anyway and not just copy a solution from others. Like the pinned thread says, This is not a HelpDesk.
I just brought a Broadlink RM4 in the end and stuck it to the back of the TV with the ir blaster facing down. Apart from the direct APP selection everything else worked prefectly. I just used the above code for selecting apps directly.
I looked into pyvizio briefly back when i was looking to do this and couldnt find alot of info on getting it set up. Im pretty new to home assistant as a package and couldnt find any real guide on how pyzivio gets set up. if you could provide alittle info that would be amazing.
I still plan on using the broadlinks as i have 1 on every tv as it gives temp and humidity for the room too which is a nice touch on the dashboard but to have a better integration for the tv would be ideal.
This is what the above code does. All modern Vizio TVs implement a REST API which you can post a JSON payload to it. If you read through the Vizio API docs on Github ( _SmartCast_API), everything is described there.
Then using that AUTH code, I can send commands to the TV just like a remote control but via REST and your home network. As you can see above, it allows you to control Volume, Mute, Cycle input (like pushing the INPUT button), using the D-PAD up/down/left/right and OK buttons, display the Settings or go Back. Everything you need.
I send to it the IP, Port, AUTH code, codeset and code shown in the table above and you have a remote on your screen. I will note that the pyvizio documentation lags behind the Javascript version referenced on that page. I had to read through both to get all of the key commands (codeset and code), especially those for the D-PAD. But you have them above.
I purchased a cbk40 setup installed the cbr40 modem router and synced the satellite. All of my devices connected smoothly. I have a 100 mg service from cox. The devices include 2 iPhones,iPad,wireless thermostat,harmony hub,Roku box,playstation,older vizio tv,pc,printer. And a vizio p75 tv display. All speeds are fast except the vizio p75 which only obtained 4-6 mb on wired to the satellite or wireless. If I remove the wired connection and connect to a laptop I get 50-60 mb so I know the satellite is putting out ok. I tried changing settings o .The tv but there isn't too much to change. Are there issues with vizio suggestions welcome
Some TVs have an app store from where you can download and install apps while others only provide a limited number of built-in apps that you cannot change. For several years, VIZIO Smart TVs allowed you to add and delete apps, however, in 2016 they changed their approach with the launch of their SmartCast platform.
The platform your smart TV is running on tells your TV how to operate, what to show on the screen and how you can interact with it. The specific platform a VIZIO Smart TV is running on depends on the model series and when it was released. To easily determine this, check the images below for reference:
The short answer is no. The VIZIO SmartCast platform offers built-in apps that you can find at the bottom of the screen. You'll see apps such as Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu and even Disney+. For a more comprehensive list of available apps, you can visit www.vizio.com/smart-tv-apps.
Besides the built-in apps, you cannot add more or delete any of the existing ones. They are created and maintained by the companies providing the online content in partnership with VIZIO. They are loaded onto your TVs screen from the provider's server similar to how websites do. When the provider decides to add new features, improve existing ones or fix current issues, they will make the changes on their server which will then be reflected on your TV automatically when you launch the app. If there's a certain app that you would like to have on the SmartCast platform, you may want to contact the content provider and put in a request. Besides the built-in apps you can also cast content from Chromecast-enabled apps from a phone, tablet or computer, as well as cast from Apple devices over AirPlay.
A small number of TV models only run on the first iteration of the SmartCast platform. It doesn't have built-in apps nor can you add apps yourself. It only allows you to cast content from Chromecast-enabled apps from a phone, tablet or computer.
There is a multitude of apps that you can choose from and add them to your screen from the Connected TV Store. You can also delete the ones you don't want, to keep them better organized. These apps are maintained by their developers and are updated automatically as long as your TV is connected to the Internet. Below you can find instructions on how to add or delete apps on this platform:
