I was googling around for ways to connect this Tuya Smart IR Blaster to HA without having to rely on the Smart Life app and calling scenes via the cloud.
I found this thread where others were trying to do the same, and my device seems to be the same S18
device shown in post #30.
I was trying to follow @BenAndo 's post (#31) confirming it could work, however the further I got when trying to set it up via the Tuya Local integration or any of the other forks, was the type selector as there only certain options like switch, light etc and I couldn’t find one for remote.
I also don’t quite understand how to set up the Smart IR integration that’s mentioned, but I do understand it seems to work if you can figure out how to have it listen for IR signals and save them.
Any advice or tips here would be great, or pointing me towards any resources would also be greatly appreciated!
