If anyone has suggestions for how to improve this or do it in a simpler way, please comment. It opens the door to do pretty much any automation that you can think of. As far as AppDaemon goes, the documentation/guides are pretty helpful with installing it on your Pi and getting it configured with HA. I didnвЂ™t really have much experience with Python before this (although I am a full-time Javascript programmer). I had only used it to setup HADashboard before.

The sync box has its own set of voice commands that you can use too. If the voice commands worked before you hooked up the hue, they will still work once it is set up. It doesn't change any functionality of the voice commands for your Chromecast. Before looking into this I had no idea what AppDaemon was capable of with HA.

If youвЂ™re looking into setting up something like this I suggest you check out the documentation for AppDaemon including AppDaemon For Beginner tutorial. The app is pretty generic so I could set this up with pretty much any other media player and light combo that I wanted (if the light is RGB and the media player has album art support). Now whenever IвЂ™m casting music to my TV through Chromecast, my LEDs change with the album cover that is playing. Self.turn_on(self.args, rgb_color=, rgb_color, rgb_color]) Rgb_color = self.get_color(self.args + new) You may have to cycle through a few inputs before you find the correct one (Example: HDMI 1, HDMI 2, etc.). On most remotes, this is done using the Input, Source or Menu button. Make sure the TV is tuned to the same HDMI input as the Chromecast. Self.listen_state(self.change_led_color, self.args, attribute = self.args)Дef change_led_color(self, entity, attribute, old, new, kwargs): The LED light on the side of the Chromecast should be lit up.

Below is the code for my AppDaemon app that changes the color of my LED strip based on my ChromecastвЂ™s current album art. Thanks to AppDaemon and a Python library called Colorthief, I was able to come up with a solution. So, I started looking into ways to do this. One night my roommate said that it would be cool if the lights behind my TV changed color based on what album I was playing through Spotify. I use my Chromecast on my TV to cast Spotify to pretty frequently for listening to music. Last weekend I put a WiFi RGB LED strip on the back of my TV.
