TV Wouldn't turn off

[wizbowes]

I had an odd one today. I sent 2 toast messages to my TV today. Later, the TV wouldn't turn off - the screen went blank (but backlight still on) then it came back on the same screen as before. It refused to turn off until I shut down my Pi running nodeRed, and which point I could turn it off again. Seems like something is keeping the TV open and preventing it from shutting down.

Only installed nodeRed yesterday - and not had anything like this before.

Sorry for not responding... Never had this issue, so can't say what went wrong. Are you still using node-red-contrib-lgtv? Did that occur again?

I had same issue with my tv. While using node-red-contrib-lgtv tv won't take any commands from remote or even actual buttons on the tv. Stays awake all the time. Any command send to tv looks like it's trying to switch off but the comes back. But none of commands actually works.
thanks

This topic is quite old, but unfortunately, I have the same issue.

I was really happy about this nod, it was so easy to signal incoming calls from the Fritz!Box to the LGTV. So in pricinple it works really fine...

But since I use the toast node, I can't turn the TV off. And when I try to turn it on, the screen turns black same seconds later.

So it's really weird behaviour. Is there a solution

Annother question:
I would like to send messages to the TV only, when it is turned on... is there a ways to implement this? Or at least request the current TV status (=> on / off) so that I could use come flow-control to stop "toast"ing messages to TV when it is off...

Issue still persists
