Hi!
It's on http://jointspace.sourceforge.net/
Just search the page for win32 (you have to get the one under april 2011).
It's a direct link to the download.
Haven't looked at it though...

Hello,
I've tried the application at http://www.netdata.be/tv/ on my 32PFL7486M (2011).
It cannot connect the tv, but I am able to surf it on the same IP address on port 1925 with my Firefox browser.
Trying to type the magic key sequence for activating jointspace, tv says it's activated.
Any hint?
Thank you and Best regards

For 2009 and 2010 TV's?
Yes it would be really great if someone finds a possibility to control all NetTV-devices (means TVs from 2009 and 2010).
I would appreciate that!
Thanks and good luck ;-)

Very nice application.
However, is there also a way to 'turn on' the television?
Shut off works, but I want to use this method to let my htpc turn off and on my television.
I don't want to stick a ir blaster on my television because that looks ugly.
I already tried to wake the television through wake up on lan, but that doesn't work either.
Is there any other way to turn the television on other than throught IR remote control?

The TV can switch on devices, such as a blue ray player through HDMI-CEC - I don't know, if this also works the other way round?
Maybe someone with a Philips Blueray Player can test this:
TV in standby, Blueray Player in standby, both connected via HDMI. Now, when the Blueray Player is switched on, will it also turn on the TV?
Please let us know if this works
If so, your chances are good that you can turn on your TV through HDMI with the right command.
Maybe there are even USB-HDMI-CEC interface devices around you can use off the shelf.

Hi,
as far as I know, the new MediaCenter MythTV has now HDMI-CEC support.

Hi,
that's a point, I'm also not sure - I also cannot find any relevant information regarding hardware/software prerequisites for CEC...

Thanks for this information!
So it's probably worth to try one of these USB- HDMI-CEC devices, where it's possible to send and receive arbitrary CEC commands. There a few self-made solutions (there was one for the Arduino board) and a few commercial ones which are more expensive.
If anyone gets/has one of these and plays around, please post your experience, which commands do and which don't work with Philips TVs.
Maybe of interest: It's also possible to control devices (i.e. your PC) using the Philips Remote control through HDMI-CEC.

Amazing idea.It really works perfectly on my TV.It seems that the interface is very advanced and fast.And it can be easily controlled.

hey; as cec can also transport remote signals, maybe someone can check what kind of signals are transmitted for RC pass through, so we can get rid of the rc6 ir codes?!?
