Support for LAN based Vogel Mounts? #260

I saw there is new version coming of Vogel Mounts with LAN support. It's pretty expensive but I guess it solves the issue with bluetooth.

Will you be adding support for it or is it something outside of your project?

Good question! @Howm I use the 7675 TV mount and would like to control it from Home Assistant or Homekit. Let me know if you need a betatester.

I actually ordered 2 of those, but also I am in contact with Vogel, and got some documentation regarding it. They mentioned that HomeAssistant "official" plugin may come in future. They sent me some code around it, so worst case scenario if this project won't pick it up I'll try to implement something myself.

While HA is "ok", i would prefer to have proper Homebridge plugin.

Thanks. I was told the mount that was installed was network connected, but I just removed the cover of the mount and found out that this is not the 7675 Pro but just the plain 7675, so bluetooth only :( I will check with Vogel's if there's an upgrade possible, and otherwise I have to install a BT dongle and try the current version of your plugin. Sorry for the mix-up!
