Package: python3-openhomedevice (2.3.1-1)

API for querying and controlling OpenHome network audio devices

This library enables interaction with OpenHome-compliant network audio devices over a local network. It allows applications to retrieve detailed information about supported devices, including their manufacturer, model, current status, and playback details such as the current track, media type, and available sources. Control functions include playing and pausing media, skipping tracks, adjusting volume and mute settings, selecting audio sources, and managing device standby state.

Firmware management capabilities are provided, such as checking for and initiating device software updates. Information about room and device naming, unique identification, and input pins can be retrieved, as well as operational status like playback and standby state. Devices supported typically include hi-fi streamers or networked media players from manufacturers implementing the OpenHome protocol, such as Linn Products. Communication is generally performed over standard network protocols including UPnP.
