    Well, unfortunately that will never happen because the app would need a full rewrite using DirectX and WinAPI.

    Fortunately there’s an open source alternative called TwinkleTray: https://github.com/xanderfrangos/twinkle-tray

    Someone determined enough could add adaptive brightness to it. You can even use Lunar’s wireless ambient light sensor [1] for that as it’s simply sending lux values through Server Sent Events [2]

    I have a repo for the switch firmware, which has some pics and other details. Keep in mind though that was pretty quick and dirty, and I think there is a fix for the secondary switch that I still need to push. I should hopefully have some free time to get back to it soon though.

    The HDMI dongle repo is still private, and I really want to do some cleanup before making it public. But, as for parts, I just used a breakout off amazon, and some cheap perfboard to make a hat containing the ESP32.
