Samsung Q990D soundbar	Works	SmartThings plugin finds Samsung devices; input switching works with a PAT token Saved copy Managed to get it to work today. I used the following plug-in: "u/o-lukas/homebridge-smartthings-tv" The plug-in automatically found all the Samsung devices set up in my SmartThings App (I had to create a PAT code from the Samsung account portal first but that is super easy) and also found a decent set of capabilities for each device.

Samsung QA65Q8 TV	Not working	Does not turn on; Wake-on-LAN sent but TV did not react, older TV works Saved copy … it been quite a few years since I did and network configuring... I have installed the home bridge-smartthing-tv plugin and it installed ok. I added two Samsung TV's of different age. The IOS Smartthings app on my phone works flawlessly. I added them to HomeKit, the older of the two works well turns off/on/change input etc. The second a QA65Q800TAWXXY model, can turn off and changes inputs but will NOT turn ON, but will turn off.
