I found a few reddit posts that seem like it should have done the trick but for some reason neither of these options are working with my TV.

I'm using "LG webOS Smart TV - Turn On Action for 2024.8+" blueprint, with the wake_on_lan button I have that has the MAC address of my TV which I got from my router. HomeAssistant server is on the same network/subnet as the TV. It simply does nothing when I run the blueprint, or just try to use the wake_on_lan button on my overview page


From reddit, this is what I am trying to lauch Plex once the TV is turned on:
alias: Plex On Power
description: ""
trigger:

  • platform: device
    device_id: [my id]
    domain: webostv
    type: webostv.turn_on
    condition: []
    action:
  • action: webostv.command
    metadata: {}
    data:
    entity_id: media_player.lgwebostv
    command: system.launcher/launch
    payload: cdp-30
    mode: single

There are so many similar but different issues, and answers that are similar but different, I've tried several things and feel like I am confusing myself and I'm unsure what to do next

shoot I can't edit this can I- I wanted to mention I did download the developer tools app on the tv, and I do have developer mode activated. and I did make sure in the menu on the tv that wake on wifi was enabled as well
