I have LED lights in my living room and I would like to dim these lights whenever I play a video via the Plex Media Server. I checked the Plex Framework API but that does not seem to cover my use case. Any ideas on how to do this? I would need some hooks that get invoked for play/pause/stop.
I think the simplest hook to use is working with Plex Watch notifications, you can then tie those into IFTTT etc.
It's a tad convoluted but someone has made a workflow here. The far easier option is to just work it into your activities in your Harmony remote (if you have one). There is also a solution for RasPlex... if you search the forums for 'hue' you'll see it.
