py-sony-bravia-remote 1.1

Library for remotely interfacing with Sony Bravia TV's.

py-sony-bravia-remote is a Python 3 library for interfacing remotely with Sony Bravia TV’s. It utilizes a undocumented HTTP API that the TV exposes. This allows you to control things like changing the volume, channel or turn the TV on and off.

This API is the exact same API that the “Sony Remote” app uses to control the TV.

Installation

For inclusion in another project, install through pip:

pip install py-sony-bravia-remote

    return input('Pincode: ')

# ip address of your tv... the device name is the name under which
# your program will be registered... note that if you change the device
# name, you have to re-auth
