Control Meross smart plugs, strips, and bulbs directly from Falcon Player playlists, command presets, and start/stop scripts. Built for holiday displays where timing and reliability matter.

Paste the plugin URL in FPP Plugin Manager and install.
2. Configure
Enter credentials, choose region, discover devices, and save aliases in plugin setup.
3. Trigger
Use command presets or scripts in playlists for per-device and per-channel control.

FAQ
Can I control individual outlets on a Meross strip?
Yes. Use the channel flag in arguments: –channel N. For example, channel 1 and 2 can be controlled independently on tested MSS620 hardware.
Do I need to update plugin files manually with curl?
You can, but for update status accuracy use git on the FPP plugin folder so local and remote commit history stay in sync.
Can I use aliases instead of UUIDs?
Yes. Save aliases in plugin setup and use those names in commands. Avoid spaces in alias names.
Is this ready for production shows?
It is in active beta. Test your exact devices and playlist timing before show night.
Where do I report issues?
Use GitHub Issues and include FPP version, device model, and JSON output from the plugin status box.
