Hi guys, thought Id write some info and show a video of my first bespoke integration.
What I'm doing here is to integration HA with my TV via the Android Bridge, and also Alexa.

I've written a custom php file sitting on my web server, which has a little query strong at the end taking the artist's name. HA monitors my Alexa device, and if a new artist starts playing, it sends the web-page to my android tv, with the artists name.

The web-page is php based, and downloads 5 images of the artist from open-commons, and the artists' biography from wiki, via their api, which you see in the ticker.

I also have a QR generate using an api, and display this over the slidershow. Lets say I new artist starts playing, and I like them, I can scan the qr code, and it fires a web-hooks over to HA, which tells my alexa device to play songs by the artist.

Gonna have a beer its taken ages!
