I had some automations setup with Node-RED so that when a video was playing, it’d trigger my movie lights, and when music was playing, it’d trigger my music lights. The automation recently stopped working, and I realized that it’s no longer pushing through media_content_type, which said whether it was video or audio. Is there another way to grab the media type?
Nothing should have changed in regards to this. Can you play media from a few apps and check if media_type is set from the developer tools?
You’re 100% right. Turns out I was only using Max, and the Max app wasn’t passing that data through, which is annoying, but I guess I’ll add a condition for when that app is used.
Yeah, this is a bug in that app. Best would be to report it to the author (Max), but they likely won’t care unfortunately. But might be worth a try.
