hello, do you know how to send post message to simulate standby input?
I mean how to power off my tv remotly?

I found that new Philips TV's support https protocol like this one:
https://iptv:1926/key/Standby
But I can't send it. Wireshark can't trace traffic between android app and my tv on https.

@VonLatvala
Copy link

@wojtulab A simple curl command like this will do the trick:
curl -X POST -d '{"key":"Standby"}' http://{IP_ADDRESS}:1925/6/input/key

So in essence, issue a POST request to /6/input/key with the body {"key":"Standby"}

As described here: http://jointspace.sourceforge.net/projectdata/documentation/jasonApi/1/doc/API-Method-input-key-POST.html [08.02.2018]
And the full documentation is located here: http://jointspace.sourceforge.net/projectdata/documentation/jasonApi/1/doc/API.html [08.02.2018]

I have these files saved offline in case they get taken down for some reason (ping me if they do).

Hi Guys,
I get an 55OLED803... really nice ;-) and I'm looking to find url command to control it. http://ip:1925/system and all other ambilight GET command are working on my TV, but not the other ones like /audio/voume. And I didin't succeed to POST any command, I tried also 1926 port. Not a lot of info trough the net.

I have an 58PUS7304/12 (2019) Modell and have installed the newest one which came a few days ago:

"2019er TVs mit Android TV 9 Pie (TPM191E: 1.2.173.7)"

My focus is controlling the Ambilight which works fine, but what is not working is POST Standby and GETing Powerstate

P.S. with regard to the Ports and Protocols:

Luckily I was able to use the plain HTTP Socket at 1925 (For Ambilight ONLY) without any pairing or authentication on that AndroidTV Version 9.0 (!) - This confirms something I found on the web:

"That the API is on version 6 doesn’t necessarily mean that it uses port 1926 though. I’ve been in contact with someone else who has also been developing a Jointspace API client and has had contact with someone at Philips responsible for the API. What he says is that all Android TV’s should use port 1926 and all non-Android TV’s should use 1925. Also, apparently Android TV’s only support the /6/system endpoint on port 1925 to comply with older clients and should also work in 1926."

For most of the other stuff the API Level 6 with HTTPS and Authentication is needed :-/ I sniffed the connection between the official Philips TV Remote App, Decrypted the SSL and checked what the App is using when pressing Standby:

But this POST command is not working at plain 1925..

after a few hours the TV's server refuses commands "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it"

if i kill the power to the TV (pull the cable) and restart the TV, it accepts commands again, for a while. does anyone know what this could be? I have a PUS6754 and i'm using Python to send commands
import httplib
key='{"key": "Standby"}'
h = httplib.HTTPConnection('192.168.0.xxx:1925')
h.request('POST','/6/input/key', key)

r = h.getresponse()

I have an similiar problem from time to time with my 58PUS7304/12 - Unfurtunately the PowerCord Off/On didnt solve it then. The only thing I can do is wait.

Verbose: Sometimes both API Ports are not open any more, then also the official Philips Remote App is not working any more. Didnt found a solution for that, only can wait then always until they are up again.

Is there a way to change the input source? My PhilipsTV is on Version 6.1, so this "/sources/current {"id":"hdm2"}" is not working for me. Any idea? Btw, on Port: https://IP:1926/6/, i can use some commands.

Does anyone happen to know whether it is possible to control the volume of the headphone audio channel using the JointSpace API?
So far I haven't found anything.

(Context: we are using a sound system connected via the headphone jack. Controlling the volume works fine with an older firmware version, it picks up that it should control the headphones audio automatically. However after updating the firmware to the latest version, this stops working, even if we tell the TV not to send out audio over the internal boxes.)
