 All notable changes of this fork. The fork is based on [hov3rcraft/homebridge-denon-heos-audio](https://github.com/hov3rcraft/homebridge-denon-heos-audio) 1.0.0-beta.1.
 
+## 1.2.4
+
+### Changed
+
+- Shorter npm description without the fork notice, so the search results in the Homebridge UI show the supported devices and features. The fork is mentioned at the top of the README and in the credits.
+
+1.2.3 was not published on npm; its changes are included in 1.2.4.
+
+## 1.2.3
+
+### Changed
+
+- Easier to find in the plugin search of the Homebridge UI: new display name *Homebridge Denon & Marantz HEOS (tplnet)*, a description that names the supported devices and features, and more keywords (Denon Home, Home Amp, Marantz Cinema, AV receiver, amplifier, soundbar, Apple Home).
+- Documentation: *Apple Home* instead of *HomeKit*; *Compatibility and security* section and badges; troubleshooting for devices that appear offline in the Homebridge UI.
+
+### Security / CI
+
+- Weekly *Compatibility & CVE check* with homebridge@latest and @beta on Node.js 22, 24 and 26, Dependabot for dependency updates.

 **Why does "power" mean "playback" with HEOS CLI?** HEOS speakers have no real standby command. The plugin therefore treats "playing" as on and "stopped/paused" as off.
 Switching on resumes the last source. If there is nothing to resume (e.g. after the speaker was restarted or a streaming session ended), or playback doesn't start within 8 seconds, the first HEOS favorite is started, so switching on also works in scenes and automations. You can choose another favorite or turn this off with `powerOnFavorite`.

 ## Compatibility and security
 
-Every change is checked against the current Homebridge release and for known vulnerabilities (CVEs):
-
-| Checked | Versions |
-| --- | --- |
-| Homebridge | 1.11.4 and 2.5.0 (HAP-NodeJS 0.14.3 / 2.3.0) |
-| Node.js | 22, 24 and 26 (Homebridge 1.x: up to 24) |
-| Known vulnerabilities | `npm audit`: 0 findings (runtime and development dependencies) |
+This plugin is kept compatible with the **newest Homebridge release** and free of **known vulnerabilities (CVEs)**:
 
-*Last checked: November 2026.* The GitHub workflow repeats these checks on every push and **weekly**, so new Homebridge releases and newly published CVEs are noticed even without code changes.
+- **Weekly and on every dependency change** the [Compatibility & CVE check](https://github.com/tplnet/homebridge-denon-heos-audio/actions/workflows/compat.yml) workflow
+  - runs `npm audit` – any known vulnerability in the runtime dependencies fails the check,
+  - builds the plugin and starts it with **homebridge@latest** and **homebridge@beta** on Node.js 22, 24 and 26 with simulated HEOS and AVR Control devices (`npm run smoke`): the plugin must load, be accepted as compatible (`engines`), connect to the devices, read their inputs and run without errors, HAP warnings or deprecation warnings.
+- **On every push** the [CI](https://github.com/tplnet/homebridge-denon-heos-audio/actions/workflows/ci.yml) workflow runs lint, the unit tests and the smoke test, also with **Homebridge 1.x** (on Node.js 22 and 24).
+- **Every release** runs the same CVE and Homebridge checks before the version is staged on npm – a release with a known vulnerability or an incompatibility is not published.
+- **Dependabot** opens weekly pull requests for dependency and GitHub Actions updates.
 
-To run all checks locally:
+Requirements: Homebridge 1.8 or newer (2.x supported), Node.js 22.12+, 24 or 26.
 
-```bash
-npm run check   # npm audit + lint + unit tests + smoke test
-```
+Run all checks locally with `npm run check` (`npm audit`, lint, unit tests, smoke test). To test another Homebridge version, install it temporarily with `npm install --no-save homebridge@<version>`.
 
-The smoke test (`npm run smoke`) starts the installed Homebridge version with simulated HEOS and AVR Control devices and fails on errors, HAP warnings or deprecation warnings. To test another Homebridge version, install it temporarily with `npm install --no-save homebridge@<version>`.
