Partly worksIR receivers shaky; brightness config fails with hex values missing error

I ended up binning that and buying a magic home wifi controllers - the IR receivers were a little shaky and you need them on display to receive a signal. If you get the magic home boxes then there is a good hombridge plug in.

Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
