Have been using the Plex Plugin to control lights in the lounge, ie switch to movie mode, back to TV, TV off that kind of thing, also to pause anything playing if the doorbell is pressed.
I have just added a HomeRunHD Quatro to Plex, so it can now record up to 4 HD streams strength off the air, transcode, remove adverts, add meta data, and put in the right folder structure.
My goal now would be to add an Alexa Command to Indigo to instruct Harmony to Turn on home theatre equipment and switch to AppleTv (assuming I leave it permanently in Plex) then use the Plex Plugin to get Plex to play the BBC1 Live TV Stream through Plex.
Ideally something like 'Alexa, Turn on BBC1 in the Lounge'
Is this possible?
Also, how do I get information out of the Plugin and into variables - ie what is currently playing on the Plex AppleTV in the Lounge?
Any pointers would be helpful.
Thanks
