TV Info
- Brand: Hisense
- OS: VIDAA
- Firmware: V0002.09.09O.P0930
- Extended version: O.P0930.X0003.W01.Y01.J01
- Market: Italy
Problem
PIN pairing flow shows a PIN on the TV screen correctly, but HA returns
"Invalid PIN" on every attempt despite entering the correct code.
When switching to the bruno-rodrigues fork (PR #7), the integration
returns "An unexpected error occurred" at the host entry stage and
never reaches the PIN screen.
Log
Could not detect protocol. Using modern auth (will try fallback if fails)
Source: /usr/local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/vidaa/client.py:160
Expected behavior
The TV appears to use legacy MQTT protocol (static credentials).
Protocol detection fails and modern auth doesn't work either.
The fix in PR #7 does not resolve the issue for this firmware.
Home Assistant version
HA 2026.x (latest)
Steps to reproduce
- Install ha-vidaa-tv via HACS
- Add integration, enter TV IP
- PIN appears on TV
- Enter PIN → "Invalid PIN" error
- Tried bruno-rodrigues fork → "An unexpected error occurred"
