Device Information
pyatv can extract various information about a device, e.g. which operating system (and version) it runs or its hardware model (3, 4K, etc.). This information is exposed via the interface interface.DeviceInfo.
Using the Device Information API
After connecting to a device, you get device info via interface.AppleTV.device_info:
atv = await pyatv.connect(config, ...)
devinfo = atv.device_info
You can then access the actual information via properties:
print(devinfo.operating_system)
print(devinfo.version)
print(devinfo.mac)
Just printing devinfo will produce a summary of the device information
(MAC-address is not included here):
>>> print(devinfo)
