Samsung IP control

Is there a Samsung IP control plugin? I am looking for a way to turn my new Samsung TV on and off. I use it strictly as a display with one HDMI input. The new TV does not have an Ex-link serial input so I can't use the EX-Link plugin.

Suggestions?

Brian,
I presume this is a current model so will be on Samsung’s Tizen OS. The current plugin only works with the earlier generation TV’s . I did look at some of the Python libraries that support Tizen but they were very fragmented and I didn’t really make much progress on scripts/plugin. I may get a chance to dig more but no promises.

Hi Brian,

It looks like there is a plugin for Tizen Sansung TVs for Homebridge.io. You could either use Siri/Homekit to control it, or use homekit rules to mirror the settings back to Indigo.
