0.1.2 - Better native network support and actions

This release should finally resolve the issues with native networked projectors. Thanks @omelettedufromagee for resolving this! Please let me know if your networked projector does or doesn't work by creating a brief GitHub issue.

Also 2 actions are implemented benqprojector.send and benqprojector.send_raw so commands can be send which are (not yet) implemented by the integration.

Using these actions you can send the commands menu, up, down, left and right to navigate the on screen menu.

What's Changed

• Native networked projectors should now work. Thanks @omelettedufromagee for resolving this!
• Actions for sending unsupported commands.
• New commands and video sources supported
• Video sources are now nicer presented thanks to the power of translations
• Video sources as defined in the config files were not always used, this is now resolved
• Uses new options flow properties as introduced in Home Assistant 2024.12
• More bugs splashed
• HT4550i / W4000i config file by @omelettedufromagee
• French Translation by @omelettedufromagee in #21

0.1.1 - Smashing some bugs

This release fixes some issues with projectors that do not return a model name and an issue where network connected projectors were not detected during configuration.

Network connected projectors

I don't own a network connected projector and have implemented the network functionality using a serial to network bridge. The support for native network connected projectors is thus experimental. Let me know if your network connected projector does or does not work by creating an issue on the GitHub repository.

Translations

The English translation has some errors fixed and the Dutch translation now also translates entity names. You're invited to provide translation files for your language to improve the covered languages. See the instructions in the Readme on how to contribute translations.

0.1.0 - Asynchronous communication and translations

This release changes quite some things under the hood, not visible by the user on first sight. Communication with the projector now goes in an asynchronous way, just the way Home Assistant likes it. Further the config workflow has been reworked to give it a bit smoother look.

For the user the biggest change might be that you can now use the integration in your own language, provided there is a language file available. You're invited to provide translation files to improve the covered languages.
