A HDMI-CEC / IR to MQTT bridge for connecting your AV-devices to your Home Automation system. You can control and monitor power status and volume.
- Power control (CEC + IR)
- Power feedback (CEC only)
- Volume control (CEC + IR)
- Raw command / keypress support
- MQTT broker (like Mosquitto)
- libcec3 with python bindings (https://drgeoffathome.wordpress.com/2015/08/09/a-premade-libcec-deb/ for a compiled RPI version)
- You might need to compile the bindings yourself. See this home-assistant issue for more information.
- HDMI-CEC interface device (like a Pulse-Eight device, or a Raspberry Pi)
- lirc + hardware to receive and send IR signals
- python-lirc (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-lirc/)
