Thank you for this great Apple TV remote control.

I still have one problem:
I wanted to add three more logos.
I filed these like this:

config/www/custom_components/Apple-Tv-Card/soruces_logo/magenta-sport.png
config/www/custom_components/Apple-Tv-Card/soruces_logo/magenta-rtl+.png

here is my code from the remote control:

type: custom:apple-tv-card
entity: media_player.apple_tv_og
remote: remote.apple_tv_og
sources:
  - source_name: Prime Video
  - source_name: Netflix
  - source_name: Magenta TV
  - source_name: MagentaSport
  - source_name: Disney+
  - source_name: RTL+
  - image: /local/custom_components/Apple-Tv-Card/soruces_logo/magenta_tv.png

    source_name: MagentaSport
  - image: /local/custom_components/Apple-Tv-Card/soruces_logo/rtl+.png
    source_name: RTL+

but the three additional logos inserted do not appear:

what am I doing wrong here?

And another note. In my opinion, the home button is still missing so that you can go straight from all apps to the home screen with all apps

Hi I got this all up and running however the text part at the top where it says Apple TV is shifted off to the right of the screen. how would I go about fixing that?

also is there a way to format the height of the card so it doesn’t scroll on iOS?

Hi, can you tell me where you are viewing the card? app, browser, OS type and home assistant version?

hi sorry should have included all of that!

in the browser (Safari), MacOS Ventura, HAOS 2023.9.3

when I take a look at it on my phone I dont see the Apple TV text at all, I can see the Apple TV text in the same location if I turn my device landscape.

then there is a some scrolling up and down

YAML code as well… this is a fantastic remote!

kiosk_mode:
  hide_sidebar: true
  hide_header: true

  - title: Home
    cards:
      - type: custom:apple-tv-card

Your card looks awesome! I took a slightly different approach with mine. I wanted it to look exactly like the real remote that comes with the Apple TV.

I saw your fantastic work afterwards, otherwise I wouldn’t have wasted my time with this one of mine.

the only interesting thing in my project are the app shortcuts and the app list, but honestly I don’t know to what extent it can increase the usability of the card.
ultimately the old habit of the physical remote control will never go away.

Now I’m facing a new job. a single remote control that adapts itself to the devices that are in use. I started from my configuration:
video output; TV/projector
sound output: tv/av receiver
input:

  • TV with its apps
  • apple tv with its apps
  • ps4
  • Nintendo Switch (obviously not integrated)

Depending on what turns on or what is turned on, the remote control adjusts itself and calls the correct services.

the biggest difficulty is not to narrow down the range of uses too much, so widening the possibilities of compatibility is creating some problems for me.

I’ll probably only use this custom card and I’m not even sure I’ll use it :slight_smile:

Works on my desktops but on iPad and mobile text is huge. Any ideas?

Is it possible to add the Control Center button from the Apple TV remote? I can’t figure out a different way to get to the screen to select airplay speakers
