I’m trying to build a device based on esp8266 that makes HA a remote for the TV. The goals are:
- To turn TV on/off and change channels and volume from HA.
- To intercept (read, not stop) signals sent from the physical remote to the TV so to remember the TV state (is it on? what channel? volume?)
I’d like the logic and state to be implemented as much as possible in the ESP and not HA, to make it more independent/robust.
The device sits next to the TV and has an IR receiver and transmitter. I know I should find a way to calibrate for the missed signals (either for the TV or the device), but that’s a problem for tomorrow.I’m sure many of you built such IR devices for the TV, AC, fan, etc’, and I was hoping you can contribute examples I can learn how to best accomplish that.
Thanks in advance
