Hi I’m trying to find a way via Home Assistant to recognize when I press play (Netflix etc) on my Roku device via the Harmony elite, it will dim the Lutron lights in my movie room. Also to ramp them up a bit when I press pause or stop.
I’ve looked through the forum but have been unable to find a solution. I’ve haven’t any trouble dimming the lights through Harmony for the general Activity selection, but I would like it to be a bit more precise than that.
I’ve attempted adding an automation in HA that would respond to Roku entering the play status, and it doesn’t appear to work. I welcome any ideas that I may be overlooking.
