How are you able to do fine-grained actions like volume control and pause through Alexa? The IFTTT channel for Harmony seems to only have start/stop activity options. Do you have a skill hitting a server running in the background that makes API calls to your hub maybe?
- dcosson 10y agoNo separate pieces. You can kind of hack it so that single actions are set up as an activity, i.e. one activity is turn it on, a separate activity is turn it on then hit volume up 5 times, separate one for volume down, separate one for play/pause, etc. In harmony's settings for the tv you have to set it not to manage the off state so it won't turn off the tv when you switch to volume up. It could be so much simpler, they really overcomplicated it
