For those of us who are in the DIY realm with automation or *only* using Lutron Ra2, there was a recent release of a K integration for Home Assistant. I have installed it and it works very well. The example provided by the developer does a basic light up / lights down scene based on play / pause or movie start. His initial release supports many of the basic K integrations items needed for home cinema such as movie location, masking, ratio, scope masking, etc. I don't think he is a member here (yet), and I was able to track him down on the AVSforum to get permission to cross-post over here. I did a basic test with adding a lights up scene as credits rolled, and it was perfect. I will likely tinker some more for Intermission responses, etc.
I don't know the rules of direct linking to AVS, so I will simply quote his post. If its permitted to link to the AVS post, I will. He is looking for more testers for a wider variety of K components. I have a Strato S, as does he, so I am of no help on that front.

After months of work I have finally completed an open source Kaleidescape movie player integration for Home Assistant. This integration allows you tie your player(s) into lighting systems, masking systems, lens controls, videos scalers, etc. For instance, have the lights turn up when the credits start rolling, change your masking system to match the current aspect ratio, or Roomba to clean the theater when the movie ends .
If you are a Kaleidescape owner, and current user of Home Assistant, would love to get some help testing it out across more devices before submitting it to Home Assistant for official inclusion. My own testing has been on my Strato S.
