We did that in the last version already.  We got a bit impatient waiting for Control4 to implement dynamic speeds so we forked the driver.  Just select the one with the speed that suits not as elegant but it works

This is not true.
Bond's RF transmission is only one-way.  The only exception to this is smart by bond fans where we get true bi-directional control.

For reference this is a Smart By Bond controller which can be retrofit into standard ceiling fans to make it smart.

allows 4 fan speeeds, dimmable light and is compatible with most major brand downrod style ceiling fans - Hampton Bay, Home Decorators collection, hunter and more

Generic devices were added in for garage doors.  The reason why they couldn’t call it garage doors in specific was due to laws prohibiting them from controlling garage doors without visual feedback.
Our driver will allow you to control these generic devices for open / close / on / off control.

I did mess around with it a bit but it was chugging due to the amount of data it was spewing out.  Was spewing out data every 100ms and the HC250 i had at the time wasn't coping with it.
Honestly though if you want to monitor solar, incoming mains, etc just get eGauge.

Chowmain - Light to Relay Driver

The Chowmain light to relay driver allows you to connect any lightv2 proxy to a relay output. This enables you to control a device like a fan that is physically connected to a light from the proper Control4 navigator sub menu. If the light switch is physically turned on or off it will also provide feedback to the relay bound proxy

Features
On/Off control from correct navigator device (such as fan) On/Off feedback from physical control of the light Automatically hides lights from navigator.
FAQ

Can you give us some examples of how we could use this driver?

DRIVER UPDATE
Implemented Step by Step binding (this allows Control4 keypads to cycle between up-stop-down-stop for blinds easily)
Implemented alternative method to get token. You can now enter in the BOND PIN (found on the rear of the bond bridge) along with the BOND ACCOUNT CODE (found under account info in the settings of the bond app for iOS or Android)
Forked Fan driver so that there is now a version for each speed 2-7 as Control4 does not support dynamic fan speed limits. Please install the correct driver for the maximum amount of speeds your fan supports.

You could pull this off with a comm server and some fancy networking.  

We are still working on this with the BSHG guys.  It’s a slow process and at this stage we have only finished the coffee machine (as that is what they sent us).
it is coming though I can’t commit to any timeframes at this stage.

It is an awesome multiroom amp.
We released the driver 10 months ago

Nope not possible.
You can only set variables of other drivers and send commands / actions to other drivers or if your driver is bound to a driver you can send proxy commands / notifications.

FYI MyQ is the reason why Control4 told all 3rd party developers to stop reverse engineering APIs.
Its caused them alot of pain.

I've honestly just used a Control4 Z2IO with the garage door motor i already have.  Most garage door openers already have inputs which you can wire into so its easy.

Chowmain launches massive update to the FREE Lithe Audio driver for Control4.

This update adds the ability to browse supported streaming services directly from any Control4 navigator.
Haven't seen Lithe Audio Wi-Fi ceiling speakers before? These amazing speakers are easy to retrofit as they have a 60W RMS amplifier and have Wi-Fi connectivity built-in. Theres no need for speaker cables or servers.
Stream your favorite Tidal, Deezer, Tune-In or vTuner audio from any Control4 navigator. Have an iPhone? The speakers have Airplay built in as well! Use Spotify? Send audio via spotify connect from your spotify app on Android / iOS or PC.

We asked them to improve their API so we can do this.  At present it is a list based API where we say select index and it moves to a different level.  As such there is no discrete way of selecting a particular album, station, track, etc programmatically.

As Oppo discontinued production of bluray players back in 2018 we arn't implementing new features.
If you are looking for a media player compatible with Control4 we recommend Zappiti.  In fact the Zappiti Pro 4k HDR is up there in performance to the UDP-203 (I heard from a distributor that they actually hired Oppo engineers to make the Pro 4k).
