Homebridge Bravia Energy Saver

Expose a Sony Bravia TV's power-saving mode as one HomeKit switch.

• On sets the configured saving level (high by default).
• Off disables power saving.
• HomeKit reads the real TV state at startup, on demand, and every 30 seconds by default.
• Writes are serialized and acknowledged only after the TV reports the requested state. A short confirmation window handles Bravia's delayed state propagation.

Requirements

• Homebridge 1.8 or 2.x
• Node.js 22.10 or 24
• A Sony Bravia TV exposing the /sony/system REST API
• IP control enabled on the TV with Pre-Shared Key authentication

Installation

Install through Homebridge UI by searching for Homebridge Bravia Energy Saver, or install from npm:

npm install -g homebridge-bravia-energy-saver

Configuration

Use the plugin's Homebridge UI settings form, or add an accessory entry:

{
  "accessory": "BraviaEnergySaver",
  "name": "TV Energy Saving",
  "host": "192.168.1.50",
  "psk": "YOUR_TV_PRE_SHARED_KEY",
  "enabledMode": "high",
  "pollInterval": 30,
  "requestTimeout": 5000
}

Never commit the TV's pre-shared key. It belongs only in the private Homebridge configuration.

Options

| Option | Required | Default | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | name | Yes | TV Energy Saving | HomeKit accessory name. | | host | Yes | — | TV hostname or IP address. | | psk | Yes | — | Bravia IP-control pre-shared key. | | enabledMode | No | high | Mode used for On: low, high, or pictureOff. | | pollInterval | No | 30 | State refresh interval in seconds. | | requestTimeout | No | 5000 | REST request timeout in milliseconds. |

Any active Bravia saving level (low, high, or pictureOff) is represented as On if it was selected directly on the TV.
