I was super excited when I came across this. I would love to be able to get some nice sound in my whole house using media_player entities. I saw a few people asking the same thing just above. Is there any plan to be able to cast out to external players like this?
So the good news is, yes, since that’s where all the interest is, and it will be easier to implement than I’d thought, that’s the first thing on “the list” to tackle next.
The bad news a) it’s still quite a major rewrite and b) I’m now quite busy with some unexpected life stuff.
So I can’t give a firm time on when/if this will happen.
Incidentally, I should add that on the off chance someone wants to sketch out an approach for how this might be implemented, I’d be very happy to have a Pull Request!
Exciting project. I was hoping to automate sound masking with white noise in my bedroom, since from 6am on it’s getting very noisy here. Unfortunately all speakers are media_players for me, but maybe there’ll be an update one day . Thanks for your efforts!
Does this integration allow you to mix sounds to cast to google home speakers? I’m currently using static mp3 files casted to my google home speakers as background noise for bathroom privacy and I’m wondering if this would allow me to use multiple audio files the same way.
Interested in playing with this (Especially once casting becomes available). However I tried installing via Addon and received the following error. Is this a known issue, or something I messed up? I can open a Github issue if preferred.

Just want to add my hope of media player support! We use Sonos for pretty much everything, and it would be so awesome to send this to individual speakers
