OpenAVC 0.21.0 adds an MQTT transport for Python drivers and restores device discovery on Linux and Raspberry Pi.
Features
Drivers can control equipment over MQTT, such as televisions with a built-in broker, building-management gateways, and IoT or lighting bridges. It supports plain and TLS connections, including the self-signed certificates many devices ship with. MQTT is available to Python drivers.
Fixes
Device discovery finds devices again on Linux and Raspberry Pi. The network scan had run without the privilege its ping sweep needs, so it reported an empty network even when devices were present. Discovery on Windows, Docker, and the appliance was not affected.
In-app updates are more reliable on Linux and Raspberry Pi. Updating a system carried forward from an older layout could fail and leave you on the previous version, and changes to the background service definition were not applied during an update. A failed update no longer reports itself as successful in the log.
