Thanks.. I should have posted here first and your response would have got me exploring the flashing method with sonoff instead of getting the Broadlink RM4.
Anyway, all is working fine so far. I got my autogate to respond to GA and that has got me thinking. Maybe I can get some app is compatible with IFTTT to sense my car location from GPS and get GA to open the gate.

. Also that has also got me digging around on how to load GA on my non-Android auto compatible car. I learnt Amazon has a cool auto gadget called Amazon Echo Auto(like rm250) and GA has a 3rd party from Anker called Bolt. But not worth to pay so much just to open gates. Anyway to sense my GPS location and open gates is cool but sounds silly to me. It's a WIP.
As of now, I am toying with my CCTV. Initially I was like just get those HIKvision WiFi cameras but I got itchy. I want to just be lazy and say "hey Google show me side camera". It should cast it to my TV.
This is my current project. I just set up a cheap NAS storage going. Dlink router with usb3 connected to a HDD dock(1TB). I know GA works with Xiaomi CCTV and I can cast it to Chromecast. There is a couple of Xiaomi CCTV models that support NAS storage. I am testing with another Xiaomi CCTV(the magnetic ip67) version and I am not happy with the load time with Xiaomi home app. Might end up scrapping Xiaomi cams and explore other NAS supported smart CCTV.
I also do not want to buy a Chromecast first and testing with Miracast(which I have) but my GA can't cast to Miracast. Just fiddling with this for now.
Anyway I am rambling as these are just testing. Will post if I get a decent system going. Good community/experts u have here. Keep it up

.
Most chinese cam display on 3rd party smart devices is slow. Because you are not going direct. The fastest I have tested is Vimtag. This company spent a lot on their streaming gateway. Hope one day Tuya/Xiaomi and the rest can improved like them.

My autogate is those fixed RF on 433.xxMhz. So I just got the Broadlink RM4 to learn it.
U can get those 433RF receiver and fix the frequency. Personally those newer gates with complicated signalling methods is just up selling. Rolling codes, encryptions etc makes sense if used for automotive.
I read here someone will mess with their neighbors gates if they know the codes.

If my gates started to behave strangely.. I will reset the dipswitch.
I just received this 2 way Tuya wifi relay board. Will try during this long weekend.
