Could you build this?

Partial A Home Assistant integration is standard glue code, but control depends on the undocumented local protocol of QuietTizen, which has to be reverse-engineered from the firmware or network traffic.

What it would actually take: Write a custom Home Assistant integration in Python that talks to the TV over its local network interface. The core work is reverse-engineering the QuietTizen control API (ports, auth, command set) through traffic capture and firmware inspection. That requires someone comfortable with embedded Tizen/Linux internals and network analysis.
