    @JimCatMP Ready to listen to suggestions and comments. I don't quite understand what this plugin needs, and how it should work, sketched today for a couple of hours. Observing. :)

    what the goal of this plugin ?
    Publish Mediaportal data to other systems, I will try to add Mediaportal management (but I don't understand what and why yet). Perhaps informing about something. :)
    i know MQTT for domotic ...
    Any system, there are a lot of them. I use Home Assistant :)

    With me now, if I turn on a movie to watch, the light turns off, if I finish watching or pause, the light turns on. I can think of all sorts of things. The main thing is to understand what is necessary. :)

    if you have any tips
    I haven't tried Domoticz, before I did anything I decided to read reviews and everyone was leaning towards Home Assistant being the most progressive product to date. So I decided to give it a try. I won't say I have it running my whole house (I don't trust it yet), but some fun little things work for me. And so far I am satisfied. So I can't tell you anything about Domoticz. On Home Assistant I can, but I'm just learning. :)
