AVA Cinema Remote

The linked list shows a very limited number of companies that are supported, but the inclosed photo shows a whole lot more. If that means that most in that photo are currently not supported, I’ll wait until their platform matures before I pull the trigger.

The photo was from Cedia expo a few weeks back showcasing IP drivers available and others in the pipeline (Apple IP).

Here are some pics of the remote in action using the K IP driver, showing metadata received from a Strato v, customisable buttons (additional to the dynamic keypad) and an example flow sequence registering commands.

Does the remote have the ability to activate 12v triggers?

Relay control isn't currently supported but if the device has an API then a ‘webhook’ can be used to register an HTTP GET URL command.
The webhook can then be added to a flow sequence.
I’ve used the webhook feature to control Shelly devices.

Okay, thanks. I forgot to add in my last post - is there RS232 support.

There are a few work around options as mentioned in the post above but no direct RS232 support.

have you taken a look at Unfolded Circle Remote 3? Haven't received mine yet, but may be what you're looking for.

It's being discussed over here on this same area of the forum.

I actually joined the kickstarter for the Unfolded Circle 3 remote. I'm still waiting for it (I suppose it's still in production). It has the potential of being a very good remote. However, a this time, it seems the remote's software (used for Circle 2 and will also be used for the new Circle 3) is very immature. Good enough if one is a Home Assistant user, but lacking for non-Home Assistant users. Needs to support more components. It has great potential, but we'll have to see if it meets its potential.
