This is the Home Assistant JVC Component implementing my JVC library
All the features in my JVC library including:
- Config Flow/UI setup
- Power
- Picture Modes
- Laser power and dimming
- Pretty much every JVC command
- Entity Attributes for current settings like power state, picture mode, laser mode, input, etc
- Async processing
Note: JVC projectors currently only support a single network connection at a time. If you're running other control systems or attempt to run the JVC AutoCal software, keep in mind you can only have one control system connected at a time.
Note: Only NX and NZ series are officially supported but this should work with any JVC projector that has an ethernet port.
This is currently only a custom component. Unlikely to make it into HA core because their process is just too burdensome.
Install HACS, then install the component by adding this repository as a custom repo. More details here - https://hacs.xyz/docs/faq/custom_repositories
You can also just copy all the files into your custom_components folder but then you won't have automatic updates.
This uses Config Flow. Install the custom component, restart, then add an integration as you normally do. Search JVC, and find the one that shows a box icon next to it. There is an official JVC Integration but it is limited and unrelated to this one.
upon HA restart, it will automatically reconnect. No action is needed from you
replace nz7 with the name of your remote entity

These are the attributes supported for the entity
- power_state
- signal_status
- picture_mode
- installation_mode
- laser_power
- laser_mode
- lamp_power
- model
- content_type
- content_type_trans (the transition - sdr or hdr)

- hdr_level
- theater_optimizer
- low_latency
- input_mode
- input_level
- color_mode
- aspect_ratio
- eshift
- mask_mode
- software_version
- lamp_time
Use the remote.send_command
service to send commands to the projector.
$command,$parameter
example: "anamorphic,off"
example: "anamorphic,d"
example: "laser_dim,auto3"
It also supports using remote codes as ASCII found here (Code A only)
example: "remote,2E"

I used this to re-create the JVC remote in HA. Add the YAML to your dashboard to get a grid which resembles most of the remote. Other functions can be used via remote.send_command. See the library readme for details.
Add this sensor to your configuration.yml. Replace the nz7 with the name of your entity. Restart HA.
