Failed to call service media_player/turn_on. Incorrect MAC address format about ha-samsungtv-smart HOT 6 CLOSED

Can you provide more info? How is your configuration? There are some information inside configuration.yaml?
Looking at the error it seems that MAC address is not correctly provided, but I change nothing about this in last version. If you rollback to 0.3.5, the integration still work?
Eventully are you able to enable and provide debug log?

there is nothing in my configuration.yaml to do with this integration. I setup using the integration in the webui and you can’t specify the MAC address. If I change nothing and simply reinstall backwards to 0.3.5 this issue does not happen. Upgrading back past 0.3.5 without changing any configurations it goes back to incorrect MAC address format. Not incorrect MAC address. Maybe something happened and it was rewritten as XX-XX-XX-XX instead of XX:XX:XX:XX or similar but I’m not sure. But this is a wake on lan error. It should not stop the TV information from updating if I were to turn it on with other means. Unless WOL is used to see if the tv is on. Is there any way to manually change the MAC address?

I did some looking around in the core.config_entries file and the TV that's having this problem has a mac address of "none" which I assume is why it's invalid.
FYI I did reinstall HACS, and this integration, and I believe it still failed to pull a mac address

Can you try open in a browser this address: "http://[your-tv-ip]:8001/api/v2/"
Then let me know the information that you receive back, eventually post it here masking sensible information

Ok, TV is not reporting the info.
The only option is to force the correct value adding this information in configuration.yaml as explained in readme. You need only to specify ip-address and mac, all other info remain unchanged, like this:

samsungtv_smart:
  - host: <YOUR TV IP ADDRESS>
    mac: <YOUR TV MAC>
