How to have the Apple TV trigger a scene
I would like to have the state of the Apple TV trigger a scene.
Scene 1: room lights dimmed at 100%
Scene 2: room lights dimmed at 5%
Scene 3: room lights dimmed at 20%
Let’s say, I start with Scene 1 activated. I would like to have my Apple TV in an automation trigger Scene 2 as soon as it is playing a movie or TV show. Then, when I pause—I have to take bathroom breaks from time to time when binge-watching a show—I’d like an automation recognize that the Apple TV is paused and activate Scene 3. When pressing Play again, I’d like the earlier automation to kick in again and dim down the lights. Finally, when the movie or show is finished playing, I’d like another automation to activate Scene 1 again.
How would I go about doing this in the Home App? I can’t seem to be able to incorporate the Apple TV into any automations.
