WebSocket client error: Failed reading HTTP status line about lgtvdevicelistener HOT 4 CLOSED

In the latest firmware update LG appears to have changed the way clients can connect to the TV, as evidenced by various other tools being forced to make changes (for example bscpylgtv, LGTVCompanion).

Looking at the changes, it looks like the WebSocket port has changed from 3000 to 3001, and the use of SSL/TLS is now required.

Interestingly, it could very well be that LGTVDeviceListener can already do this with no changes, as I suspect it's already built with SSL support, if memory serves me right.

Can you try the following command and report back:

LGTVDeviceListener.exe --verbose --url wss://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:3001

It's basically the same as before except the use of wss: instead of ws: and port 3000 is changed to 3001.

I'm not sure it will work because it might try to verify certificates which will likely fail. In that case I'd need to take a closer look and make some changes.

I just tried the above myself and yeah, as expected it doesn't quite work:

[ERROR  ] FATAL: WebSocket client error: Unable to connect to pegasus-lgtv.home.edechamps.fr on port 3001, error: error in handshake : X509 - Certificate verification failed, e.g. CRL, CA or signature check failed (retries: 0, wait time: 0.000000 ms, HTTP status: 0)

I'll need to find a way to disable certificate verification.

This is fixed in LGTVDeviceListener 0.2.

Note the updated instructions which use a different URL - wss://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:3001 should be used instead of ws://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:3000 for LGTVDeviceListener to work with latest LG firmware versions. If you are running as a service, you will want to delete the service and then re-create it with the new URL.

Thanks for fixing this so quickly!
