Way to start Emby via smartthings

[all4dom 102]

Is there anyway to setup emby to start up automatically & play a certain show via Samsung smarthings & samsung emby tv app? Im trying to setup a way i can automate my daughter's show, yo gabba gabba to come on automatically once she arrives home. Any direction is appreciated.

Thanks

Not a big smartthings user, but yes you can use it to power up your TV, auto start an app at certain times, etc using the smartthings phone app to configure.  I don't think it will configure anything past starting Emby though.

There's also a setting on Samsung TVs to autostart the last app used when powering up.  That requires you to power off the TV while using Emby (once you exit it's no longer the last app used).  That may bring you back to where you were when powering off too.

My basement got flooded this past weekend, so my TV and stuff is all unplugged and I can't really check how I've got things setup right now.

Ok. I dont see too much for the tvs in the smartthings app but was hoping I could do something. Do you know any way possible with a differnet tv brand? 

Thanks
