| Panasonic 49FX740 | Not working | Same power state problem as TX-55FZ800ESaved copyI'm having the same issue with a Panasonic 49FX740, which is also a 2018 model TV. Also the same as @daciand , I can control it with the Panasoic TV Remote 3 App on my iPhone, including power on/off.

The current state is correctly reflected in the app, but as I said, I cannot change it. By using the TV Remote 2 app on my iPhone, I am able to change its power state, which I guess it means that the TV can be started remotely. It may also be worth mentioning that the TV is connected to my local network via WiFi (802.11n, 5 GHz band). My config.json looks like this: ` { "accessory": "Panasonic-TV", "name": "Panasonic … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22. | Issue #14 · 2019-05 |
