Panasonic TH-65EZ950 TVRequestedWants Wake-on-LAN to power on from standby; TV does not respond to network power-on

humm... per https://www.panasonic.com/content/dam/Panasonic/au/en/support_manual/televisions/TH-65EZ950_eHELP-Operating_Instructions_User_Manual.pdf (page 182) you should have a `Powered On by Apps` option which must be ON ... and should be enough :-) to move forward :-). if you haven't you probably need to update the firmware... Hoping this helps! (and thanks for your patience)

In ReReHome

Whatever this plugin publishes reaches Apple Home as a normal HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.

Bridges get their own settings page listing the accessories behind them.

Caveats from the README

  • Older sets may need Wake-on-LAN or CEC to power on

HomeKit services in its code

Found by scanning the published npm package. A plugin can register a service only for some devices.
