First of all; thank you for the useful plugin. I have encountered the same installation problems mentioned by others, and thought I should share my experiences. I am runnning Homebridge on a Raspberry Pi, with Node.js v8.x. I was able to install the plugin running first the command sudo apt-get install libtool autoconf automake then sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm homebridge-theater-mode I have tested the installation on clean setups of Raspbian using Node.js v8.x, v10.x & v11.x. v8.x is successful, but later versions of Node.js returns installation error. Installing with v8.x and then upgrade and recompile plugin also failed.
