Question about IoT class #15

Closed Shawn9347 closed 11 months ago

Hi,

I was wondering what the IoT class is for this integration? How does it pull information from the zidoo? For example, local push, local pull?

I would like to automate my lights with the native player. For this to work correctly it needs to be local push. Just like the Kodi integration.

it's local polling using zidoos REST API (poorly documented!)

Automation control is available through HA. There was some discussions on light control on the zidoo forum. I've just added a page here with a possible solution

Hoping this answered your question. If the ZIdoo API is ever updated with push functionality, I'll re open as an enhancement.
