Create media player app for Zidoo X6
Hi,
I have a media player (Zidoo X6) at home and would like to control it through Homey. I don't have any experience in building apps. Therefore is there someone who can help me building one? Or is there a way to teach myself in creating it?
Thanks in advance.

I guess it works via DLNA and therefore has an IP address. It also works with infrared but don't want to use that of course. It uses a modified version of Kodi.
I want to use certain apps on this media player:
- the modified version of Kodi
- Netflix
- Google Photos
- Youtube
What else is necessary in order to develop an app?
By the way: it is an Android media player. Don't know if this helps
Thirst I give you advice to think about what you what to automate with Homey.
Basic steps like start up and shutdown could possible. (Wake on lan and kodi app)
Try to use the Kodi app.
Who could help me build an app?
You could take the code from the kodi app, and change it for the x6.
