Apple Media Remote
Control Apple TV, HomePod, and AirPlay devices from the command line using atvremote.
Setup Notes
pyatv has a compatibility issue with Python 3.14+. Use --python python3.13 (or any version ≤3.13) when installing. If ~/.local/bin isn't on your PATH after install, run: pipx ensurepath If your default Python is 3.14+, you can also call directly: python3.13 -m pyatv.scripts.atvremote <command>

Device Info
atvremote -n "Kitchen" device_info # Model, OS version, MAC atvremote -n "Kitchen" features # List all supported features atvremote -n "Kitchen" app # Current app playing media
Tips
Pause vs Stop: Use pause/play to suspend and resume. stop ends the session entirely — playback must be restarted from the source (Siri, Home app, etc.) HomePods with "Pairing: NotNeeded" can be streamed to immediately Apple TVs typically require pairing first (all protocols the device supports) The playing command shows media type, title, artist, position, shuffle/repeat state For stereo HomePod pairs, target either unit by name Use --scan-hosts for faster targeting when you know the device IP Navigation and keyboard commands are primarily for Apple TV (not HomePod)
