Feature Request: Play Sound Over Arlo Camera Speaker #142

Open sbowater opened 4 years ago

I am new to HASS and having already invested in Arlo cameras and lights am thrilled to have found your project. As I think through possible extensions of the capabilities it occurred to me that there are scenarios where it would be great to be able to use the speaker built into the cameras to play a sound file (e.g., motion sensor triggers a warning message). I know that you can use the Arlo app to speak through the camera but no idea if there is any API that you can take advantage of here for this feature. I'm also relatively new to the open source community/github/reddit so apologies if this type of feature request should be made elsewhere -- just let me know!

Hi.

I don't know if what you ask is possible, but I'll poke around in the webapi and see if I can find something.

On a somewhat related note, somebody just created a push request for playing music on the baby device, maybe I can use a similar mechanism.
