It's a start. This is a node.js app that uses the express server, so it will probably use up a lot of resources on your Raspberry Pi (if your Domoticz server, like mine, is running on RPi).

Anyway, I installed it (which failed the first time, so I had to manually install the 'request' module (npm --save install request). I noticed that the only functions this app has is turn the Mediabox on/off and show/change the channels (edit index.html to see more than 10 channels). But there is already a Home Assistant plugin that can do more: https://github.com/IIStevowII/ziggo-mediabox-next.

Like pgielen I tried the nodejs solution as well. Ran into the same problem, but works nice. Now I'am trying to create a curl command to send to the webserver. In order to create backgrounds commands. I'am used to do some programming, but new to nodejs. Can some one help me to create a curl command (for exanple for the power-key command) based on the code in index.js en index.html?

Hi all,

I've created a python package for communication with the next. It's created for Home Assistant but since it is a generic package you can use it for domoticz too i presume...
