Hey, thanks for the reply. Of course you have better insight than me, but i think a relatively large number of people do write scripts for OA? I'm sure they would benefit too, indirectly.
The more you expose in an API, the more power you give to users to create their own scripts for things they are asking for, especially when it comes to getting data out.
For example, many people want screen dimming with screens other than the official one. If you make it possible to get simple data out like idle time, media playing status, if android auto is active, it's much easier for someone to create a script that just dims a simple PWM pin, but is perfectly linked to OA. Saves you time as a developer I'd hope, to focus more on key features.
PS. I am very surprised why my mention and links of other media player builds (and their better control systems) were removed from my post? I checked and there are no rules mentioned anywhere?
