Add support for bravias
https://github.com/aparraga/braviarc provides a simplified implementation of the same protocol, but is targeting only the bravia televisions. This library could be extended to add support for those, which would require adding handling authentication (pin & psk) and extending some other parts (e.g. if IR command sending is wanted).
Want to mention @gerard33 who is working on https://community.home-assistant.io/t/sony-bravia-tv-component-with-pre-shared-key/30698/122.
I will be happy to contribute after April (finals).
Braviarc library doesn't need much to support PSK. The changes in the the other component are so different....and its an alternative component.
Here's my fork for example: https://github.com/robert-alfaro/braviarc
I've added PSK support (still has pin support), support for android app launching, and a few more goodies. I'm also integrating python-adb right now as an experiment to readback the current activity. It works thus far to map to the app sources list and report "current app".
Sounds good! I just added this issue as it would be nice to have support for all "songpal"-supported devices in this lib for the sake of completeness.
