FHEM/CCU Home Cinema Service

About

This service allows to send commands to FHEM or Homematic CCU on specific player actions in order to create a cinema like atmosphere at home. The user can configure commands to send to FHEM on various player events:

  • On Kodi Start
  • On Kodi Shutdown
  • On Video Playback Start
  • On Video Playback Pause
  • On Video Playback Stop
  • On Audio Playback Start
  • On Audio Playback Pause
  • On Audio Playback Stop

Optional daytime support (only FHEM) allows to specify an alternative set of commands to use during daylight hours.

FHEM is a GPL licensed perl server for house automation. It is used to automate some common tasks in the household like switching lamps, shutters, heating, etc. and to log events like temperature, humidity or power consumption. The program runs as a server, you can control it via web or smartphone frontends, telnet or TCP/IP directly.

Homematic CCU is a central unit for house automation build by the company eQ-3.

Prerequisites

For FHEM you need a working installation and knowledge about the commands to send in order to get the desired results.

The addon communicates with FHEM using the telnet command line interface on port 7072 by default. If you have configured the telnet interface to listen on a different port, you should adjust the port number in the addon configuration page, where you can also specify all commands you want to be issued on player actions. If the telnet inteface is not enabled in your FHEM configuration, you should add the following lines to your FHEM configuration file and restart FHEM:

define telnetPort telnet 7072 global

If you are using this addon with an Homematic CCU you need a system variable with a value list

Unknown;Start;Shutdown;Audio playback start;Video playback start;Audio playback stop;Video playback stop;Audio playback pause;Video playback pause
