Samsung C6200 TV	Won’t be supported	Low-budget model with no network remote control Saved copy What models of Samsung TVs or HTs does this plugin support? Basically, any TV or HT that does not use the Tizen operating system. Tizen was introduced in 2015, so most TVs or HTs from before 2015 will work.

Within a series of TVs, Samsung also made low-budget models with reduced hardware. These have no network remote control capabilities, therefore they cannot work with this plugin.

Samsung H-series 2014 TVs	Won’t be supported	Require PIN authentication; not supported, myTiFi also fails Saved copy H-Series from 2014 require a PIN to authenticate the remote with the TV, which is not supported by this plugin. See here for reference info: https://imkapps.com/mytifi/manual/#Use_with_H-Series_or_J-Series The plugin needs to be adapted to support authentication for the H-Series See issue https://github.com/jsiegenthaler/homebridge-samsungtvht/issues/2 where the issue of connecting to an H-series was discovered Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22.

Samsung UE48H6870 (2014 H-series)	Won’t be supported	H-series is Tizen; plugin cannot control it Saved copy Your TV is an H-Series from 2014. I believe the H-Series use the Tizen operating system. This plugin is for the earlier generation, non-Tizen TVs, and thus cannot work with your TV. From the Readme Requirements: https://github.com/jsiegenthaler/homebridge-samsungtvht#requirements An Orsay (non-Tizen) Samsung TV or Home Theater system from C-series (2010), D-series (2011), E-series (2012), F-series (2013) models. Orsay started in 2011, Tizen started in 2015, so TVs and HTs from 2011 to 2015 generally work with this plugin. May also work on some later models as well. Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22.
