Probably one just for the UK users. I just found a Python project that seems to allow full IP control of a Sky+HD satellite box including power on (from standby) and power off. The project was designed to allow communication using mqtt which I believe myServer supports but I wanted an easy way to test it out so I've forked the project here
github.com/andrewmk/mqtt_sky
and added a very simple command line client. Using the command line client you can run things like this:
Code:
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py backup
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py channeldown
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py channelup
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py home
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py pause
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py planner
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py play
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py power_off
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py power_on
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py search
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py select
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py up
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py down
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py left
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py right
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py yellow
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py blue
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py green
python3.12.exe skyremote_cli.py red
It already responds pretty quickly but I suspect it would be even more responsive if you were running it as an mqtt server as it wouldn't have to establish a connection with the Sky box each time.
