I literally just finished plugging mine in and sent an e-mail to support asking for the API reference so I could do a home-assistant integration. Looks like you beat me to it.

Nice work and thanks !

Thanks, much appreciated. It was something I wanted to do myself since I have multiple HDMI switchers into my DreamScreen and was a little frustrated with not being able to automate switching between all my sources appropriately. If you find something lacking let me know or feel free to submit a PR. This was my first pass at something useable.

I am working on reverse engineering the UDP protocol so that I can get statuses. The forum post where the packet schema is posted hints that it may be possible. If I find anything I'll let you know

That would be great. If I get around to it I might poke around myself. There must be more available to pull/change since the Android & iPhone app can change more than just what their spec shows. In brute forcing the packets I was able to accidentally change settings such as zone toggles or CEC and other things it seemed but I wasn't sure of what was what since I basically just did brute force to see what might happen. Their must be some sort of response back from the DreamScreen giving status but I haven't looked into reverse engineering the Android app or the UDP protocol itself since I'm less knowledgeable in those areas.
