If you got it working you should close the issue.

Try python ./philips.py —host x.x.x.x pair instead of sudo sh

Because sudo sh philips.py --host 192.168.10.35 pair simply can not work. I wonder where you got that sh from?

If you all issue the same command as described above, it cannot work. The ending .py suggests that it is a python script, such can not be executed with sh (shell). Make sure that you have installed python3 and pip3 (check with python -V / python3 -V and pip -V / pip3 -V) and execute the command as it is in the readme.

And to be absolutely sure: Turn on your TV and run this commands:

pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 philips.py --host <YOUR_IP_ADDRESS> pair

you will get a code on your tv. Type this into the terminal.

It is a python script; not a bash script. You shouldn't run it with sh but with python...
