It looks like Home Assistant is updating their Squeezebox support in their next release.
https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/35669 >From the notes: -This moves the squeezebox integration to the configuration flow so that it can be configured from the frontend and loaded without restarting home assistant. Servers will automatically be discovered by the "discovery" integration, or by this integration once it is loaded. If the user adds this integration from frontend, it will attempt to automatically discover the server as well. Relatedly, the squeezebox integration will now handle individual players coming online or going offline while home assistant is running. Previously, the integration would only detect players that were present during startup.- I'm glad to see the dynamic updating of players, as that was a pet peeve of mine. I'd be curious if anyone's done anything extensive with Squeezebox and Home Assistant. I've done some simple setup such as coordinating the shutdown of my receiver via my Harmony Hub if the player was paused for a certain period (basically emulating the power off plugin). The biggest thing I'd be interested in would be the ability to get the list of favorites from Squeezebox so it could be added to a drop down in Home Assistant if anyone's done that. Ideally in the long run Home Assistant would be the gateway to everything in my house, while navigating all of Squeezebox sounds painful, I think navigating favorites would be useful. I am currently able to play a specific url on a specific player, but something more dynamic would be more great. Lastly I saw this project a while back which sends alerts to players, but never got ambitious enough to check it out: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/squeezebox-audio-alert-script/11774/50 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sander's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10737 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112546 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
