Apple Media (AirPlay + Apple TV control)

Author: Parth Maniar — @officialpm

This skill is a thin workflow wrapper around two tools:

• pyatv (atvremote) for discovering Apple TVs/HomePods and (when supported/paired) remote-control style commands.
• Airfoil (via the existing airfoil skill) for reliable speaker connect/disconnect + volume control across AirPlay speakers (including HomePods).

Setup

This skill uses pyatv installed via pipx.

Install/repair (pinned to Python 3.12 to avoid Python 3.14 asyncio issues):

pipx install pyatv || pipx upgrade pyatv
pipx reinstall pyatv --python python3.12
