The `epson` platform allows you to control a Epson projector from Home
Assistant.

To add Epson to your installation,
add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
media_player:
  - platform: epson
    host: 192.168.0.123
```

{% configuration %}
host:
  description: The host name or address of the Epson projector
  required: true
  type: string
port:
  description: The HTTP port number.
  required: false
  type: integer
  default: 80
name:
  description: The name of the device used in the frontend.
  required: false
  type: string
  default: 'EPSON Projector'
ssl:
  description: "Enable SSL. **Feature not tested.**"
  required: false
  type: boolean
  default: false
{% endconfiguration %}

Supported features of Epson projector:
- turn on/off
- set input
- set/get color mode
- increase/decrease volume
- mute/unmute audio
- send next/previous track

Supported devices:
