Built inAssumed state
The Edifier Infrared integration lets you control an Edifier speaker using any infrared transmitter previously configured in Home Assistant.
In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge
What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.
| Entity | Shows up as | Note |
|---|---|---|
media_player | Media player (as switches) | Only TVs and receivers get a TV tile; other players show as power and play switches; Needs its own HomeKit Bridge in accessory mode |

How it connects
Assumed state
Sends commands but can’t read the device’s state back, so Home Assistant assumes it worked.

Limitations from the docs
- The integration uses assumed state, meaning Home Assistant cannot read the actual state of the speaker (for example, whether it is on or off, or what the current volume is).
- Turning on and turning off the speaker both send the same IR power toggle command, as is standard with infrared remotes. The same applies to play and pause.
- Volume control is step-based only; there is no way to set an absolute volume level.
- Source selection is not exposed by the media player entity. For models that support it, dedicated buttons are provided to switch between inputs instead.
- The R1280T model only supports volume up, volume down, and mute, because its remote does not include power or playback buttons.
- The S360DB model does not support mute, because its remote does not include a mute button.
