+1 to this! Would also love this functionality!

My current work around is through the Philips Hue Sync Box which, when it goes into an ‘off’ state activates Art Mode. This can then trigger certain lights to come on (or Sonos in my kitchen). But it would be super useful to have direct control over Art Mode via this app if possible!

Art mode is not an app…

Off course, I would like the functionality, but art mode doesnt have an app id or so.

I noticed that the Homebridge plugin for Samsung Tizen now has The Frame support.

I didn’t yet went thru the code to see how they did it

Now it works, after updating Homey to the latest official version (I was on experimental before) it started working, not sure if it matters.

Tried two Samsung TV’s but the newest TV keep giving the message that IP adres needs to be added.

The response of this tv is

Hi,

Same here for another TV. Power on/off or any other button is not working.

It does connect with the encrypted version, after I manually enter the ip-address. It asks for a pin, it responds well and seems to work, but it doesn’t work in the end.

The non-encrypted version doesn’t work either. Also I’ve to manually add the ip-address in this case. Tried to enable the encrypted switch in the advanced settings, but it doesn’t matter.

Also tried to increase the delays for sending commands and tried WiFi over wired, but non seems to be the magic trick.

Hello Bjørnar,

I too bought a new tv.  
Maybe you could add mine .

```

Edit: I see now that if I change my tv to wired network Homey can find my tv.  
Only wifi doesn’t seem to work.

Edit 2: it seems that Homey can’t realy determine if my tv is on or off.  
The flows for tv is on or tv off get constantly triggered if the tv is off.

@Hugo , @Dracoignis

Please test v. 1.8.4.

> **[Samsung SmartTV](https://homey.app/en-us/app/com.samsung.smart/Samsung-SmartTV/)**
>
> Control your Samsung SmartTV

This version has improved support for “power state”, and will better see if the TV is on / off. This only works for newer TVs.

Also:

- reserve an IP address for you TV in your Wi-Fi router (or assign a static IP address in the TV settings)
- you can manually edit the IP - address in the device settings in the Homey Samsung SmartTV app

Ok.  
First findings:  
When the tv is on the state of the tv seems to be stable, or Homey does not know if tv is on or off.  
When the tv is off by remote Homey doesn’t seem to see the tv is off.  
When the tv is on by remote Homey also doesn’t know it is on?

When the tv is on and set to off by remote and i wait a couple of seconds and push the tv ‘button’ (Homey thinks the tv is on!) Then the button says tv is off, but the tv goes on.  
The other way around also.

So it seems Homey does not know the state of my tv and setting tv from on to off or from off to on is just a change of state?

I hope you understand what I mean.  
Thanks for the effort.

Edit:  
From the time I installed this version Homey does not see my tv anymore going on or off.  
Setting tv on or off still works but Homey does not know if my tv really is on or off.

Homey Cloud does not support Wi-Fi connections, so this app won’t be supported.

The “Samsung TV” app from Athom uses IR, and is already supported, and might work for you.

Also, to be able to publish apps to Homey Cloud you must be a verified developer.

Mmm oké, thanks for your replie

So there is no universal command from the TV to homey that tells that the TV is pauses…

But when (for example) Netflix is paused, or Disney + or Amazon prime… Is there a way to let homey now that one of this apps is paused?
