Add AppleTV to HASS

postlund · January 29, 2020, 6:15am

Right. Did you by any chance remove and re-add the Apple TV at some point lately?

krock · January 29, 2020, 1:54pm

Hi @postlund - i am not sure what led to this disconnection. so I don’t know if I can help answer than. However, in my attempts to fix the issue, I did reinstall the appleTV integration. So, I think that led to the name change. Thanks for your support!

postlund · January 29, 2020, 2:20pm

What I mean is: did you go to the integration page, remove the Apple TV from there and then add it again (doing pairing and all that)? I have an idea of what is wrong, related to handling of unique identifiers, and I guess you might have experienced that. It will be one of the things I try to solve before final version of the component.

So far, it’s working like a charm. Thank you! I just wished I saw this first.

I just spent an hour trying to configure using the main HA documentation. If none of those configurations work anymore, I’d wish it would just be taken down or heavily edited. I don’t think it’s right to have “documentation” full of non-working, out-of-date configurations.

postlund · February 8, 2020, 12:13pm

Yes, sorry about that! Documentation has not been my priority here. The documentation per se works, but only for pre-tvOS 13 device. This should have been stated. It is only announced via the alerts page:

I will however re-write the documentation soon! Thanks for trying it out btw!

Just tried it out and, wow, rather easy to get working. Thanks!!

MisterMister · February 10, 2020, 12:16am

No problem! Thank YOU for doing all that hard work. So far, the only quirk I see is that whenever I am playing something via the Sling app, it reports the state as “not playing.” I don’t know if this would be considered an “issue” necessarily, more like something to assess to get the kinks out, if possible.

Thanks again!

postlund · February 10, 2020, 5:57am

Thanks again for testing, it helps sorting out the quirks

That sounds like a bug to me. State should always be correct, other metadata like title, artist and so on might be missing because the app doesn’t provide it. If you can either run Home Assistant with these log points enabled and provide some logs:

logger:
  logs:
    pyatv: debug
    custom_components.apple_tv: debug

Or use atvremote --debug ... playing to extract logs, that would help a lot!

Im stuck if I want to integrate my AppleTV and I didnt know why.
After I type the PIN from my AppleTV in HA it just shows a windows with “Canceled”.
Any Idea what I can do?

I put logger in my configuration.yaml, but not sure, where I see this logs.

postlund · February 13, 2020, 9:42am

The log is available under Developer Tools -> Logs in the side pane.

slofii · February 13, 2020, 10:27am

The only log I find about the apple tv is:

You are using a custom integration for apple_tv which has not been tested by Home Assistant. This component might cause stability problems, be sure to disable it if you do experience issues with Home Assistant.

postlund · February 13, 2020, 10:42am

Make sure you have this in your config:

logger:
  logs:
    pyatv: debug
    custom_components.apple_tv: debug

Try to add your device. Then press “Load full
Home assistant log” to get the full log.

Looks ok I believe this behavior has been seen before. Open the AirPlay settings menu on your Apple TV and make sure airplay access setting is set to “Everyone on the same network”, then try again.

slofii · February 13, 2020, 6:53pm

That was it!!! Thanks so much.

postlund · February 13, 2020, 9:04pm

Great! Do you remember the more “exact” phrasing of the error message you got? Would be got for future references, since this will likely happen again.

slofii · February 14, 2020, 6:17am

Yeah, it was just “canceled” but in German. And I could only click on “ok”.
I have a screenshot at home, if this helps.

postlund · February 14, 2020, 8:10am

Yes, screenshot would be good

slofii · February 14, 2020, 1:21pm

postlund · February 14, 2020, 2:02pm

Ah, I see it now. I missed the “auth” translation string. I will have to add that. Thanks for providing feedback
