Simple UK Sky+ satellite reciever control
This flow will allow you to control a UK Sky+ satellite box.
It supports the following commands "Pause", "Stop", "Play", "Rewind" (x2,x6,x12,x30), "FastForward" (x2,x6,x12,x30)
Add your SkyBox IP address in the "Add SKYBOX IP here" template node.
The initial part grabs the file description0.xml from port 49153 to determine the Sky Box UDN value which is then used within the SOAP URL. Actual control is then relatively simple SOAPACTIONs with urns like: “urn:schemas-nds-com:service:SkyPlay:2#Stop”
Hat tip to Liam Gladdy who has documented the protocol https://gladdy.uk/blog/2012/08/21/the-skyhd-picasso-dnla-control-server-protocol/
I'm using it to pause the TV when my doorbell rings and when I manage to misplace the SkyRemote and my iPhone which happens all too often!
