The `philips_js` platform allows you to control Philips TVs which expose the [jointSPACE](http://jointspace.sourceforge.net/) JSON-API.

Instructions on how to activate the API and if your model is supported can be found [here](http://jointspace.sourceforge.net/download.html). Note that not all listed, jointSPACE-enabled devices will have JSON-interface running on port 1925. This is true at least for some models before year 2011.

### Turn on device

The Philips TV does not always support turning on via the API. You can either turn it on via IR blaster or on som models WOL. To trigger this command from the entities, the integration exposes a `device trigger` that can be setup to execute when the `media_player` is asked to turn on.

### Remote

The integration provides a remote entity for sending remote key presses directly to the TV. The following list of commands are available for use with the `remote.send_command` service.

| Command          | Comment                                   |
