Ajust Brightnesse by TCP and/or by an automatic trigger

Is this a feature relevant to companion itself, and not a module?

  • [X] I believe this to be a feature for companion, not a module

Is there an existing issue for this?

Describe the feature

Hi Everyone, I usually use Stream Deck with windows, but as soon as I discovered the possibility to use Stream Deck with Raspberry Pi I started using it seen that it's much cheaper and companion has a lot more of possibilities, but a possibility that I couldn't find was Turning off the keys after a no time use, so is it possible to implement in the raspberry pi companio version a brightness control by TCP (or HTTP) and use it as an internal feature that could be added to those interval time events? Sorry for any english mistakes, I'm a Brazilian Automation Engineer.

There already is an action to set the brightness of a streamdeck, so you can do it on a timer, I dont think it is possible to do over TCP/UDP/HTTP/OSC, but we will happily accept a PR which adds that

I couldn't find the action to set the brightness after a certain time as I would like to do, I'm not sure if this is available for the Raspberry Pi Version 2.2.0 or I'm just looking on the wrong page. I trying to configure it in "Triggers" and then "Add a new Trigger" and I guess it should be available on the "Action" list, am I right?

Hi, I cannot read out if adjusting brightness via http or tcp is implemented or not by following this thread or linked threads. It is trivial for me to be able to use companion. The use case to use these products in dark rooms could be pretty popular, so please implement it or add it to the documentation if it is already available

Create two triggers First trigger is a timer after x seconds set brightness to a set level zero for off second trigger after any key press resets the first trigger ( therefore resets the timer) and change brightness back to a set level say 100

Therefore after no activity for x seconds the brightness will dim
