Google Home Philips Ambilight Control

by mkapiczy

Hi,

I am considering buying a Philips TV with ambilight but Google Home integration is crucial for me. I have seen couple of threads but no clear answers and some were pretty old so might be obsolete.

Could anyone tell me if it is currently possible to :

  • turn on and of your TV with voice command
  • control ambilight with voice commands: turn it on/off, assign it to a routine, set it to a constant mode (one color)

One of the routines I'd like to have is "Cinema Mode" where my room lighting goes to a certain setting (that's already in place), TV turns on and ambilight goes to my predefined mode on/constant light.

The reason for a constant light need is that I am not sure if I will like ambi feature long term so I'd like to have an option of just having a light up behind the TV without the color change if need be.

If you can wait few days I might be able to respond. My new Philips 7906 arrived yesterday and I had little time to mess with it. Sadly this model don't have microphone but Home or Google TV should be replacement for this.
