Homebridge Harmony TV
Creates a HomeKit TV accessory for a Logitech Harmony-controlled TV.
Update 2019-09-12
I don’t use a Logitech Harmony Hub anymore, and I’m unlikely to undertake any new development on this plugin in the near future. For now, new patch versions will continue to be published automatically when this plugin’s depedencies are updated. Please open an issue if you are interested in maintaining this plugin.
Use Case
The target use case of this plugin is “control a non-smart TV in HomeKit via a Harmony Hub”, not “use HomeKit as an interface for all Harmony features”. If you’d like Harmony Activites to show up as inputs in HomeKit, check out the homebridge-harmony plugin.
