This code is deprecated as pyvizio has been updated to add sound bar support. Please use the latest pyvizio packages instead of this one.

Description

CLI Usage

To avoid repeating IP param, you can add it to environment variables as VIZIO_SOUNDBAR_IP

To get current power state simply call

In addition mute command is available

pyviziosoundbar --ip={ip} mute {on|off|toggle}
