Webos on OLED55CX6LA does not update/broadcast current status (ie play/pause) to connected apps in lan

[mkjn72]

I have successfully integrated my new  tv in my smarthome implementation, and can send events like button presses etc. Also I can see launch of applications and status ON in logfiles. But the level of detailing of events seems rather limited. I would like to proceed and trigger rule based automations like dim lights when play starts (netflix, amazon etc). In my previous setup (using an external chromecast) this was working fine, but unfortunately this TV does not seem to notify these kinds of statuses 😞

Request: pls expand functionality so that webos/TV will broadcast its status in (much) more detail. is this possible, and if yes how?

@td47 thanks for your reply, was indeed unclear for me. Also thanks for your advice, will certainly contact my local/regional supportdesk with my feature request,
