Thank you, got it to work. Faster action now, even though being able to send text to apple keyaboard saved me a lot of time.

Do you know of a way to to the same for plex?

I manged to play episodes by getting specific metadata id, but getting the meta data id from the show page just starts playing S01e01, and not continue where I left of. So if there was a way to just get to the series page I could hit play myself

Are you vintage414 on reddit? …if so, I have answered you there.

Basically, with the Plex integration, you can do things like this:

- service: media_player.select_source
  data:
    source: Plex
  target:
    entity_id: media_player.appletv
- delay:
    seconds: 1
- service: media_player.play_media
  data:
    media_content_type: EPISODE
    media_content_id: >-
      {
        "library_name" : "TV Shows",
        "show_name": "30 Rock",
        "shuffle": 1,
        "maxresults": 1
      }
    enqueue: replace
  target:
    entity_id: media_player.plex_plex_for_apple_tv_apple_tv

Glad to have been able to help!

Any luck with youtube music to homepod?

Trying to deep link Apple TV to launch a live network on Hulu. I can launch Hulu but can’t go any deeper. Any suggestions?

28

Hulu doesn’t seem to support direct linking, or at least I’ve never been able to figure out the URL structure. I just link Hulu to the TV app and then get the URL for the TV app and use that.

Oh, I’ve been trying to deep link youtube and getting this error, is this the cause?

Message malformed: extra keys not allowed @ data[‘action’] error on

Is there a way of deep linking into a specific area of the Apple TV Settings menu?

I use the Dialogue Enhance feature a lot and it would be great to be able to go straight into that section of the settings (Settings/Video and Audio/Enhance Dialogue)

I don’t think so. The deep linking mentioned in this thread has to do with media objects (i.e. URLs to movies, TV shows, or episodes). To my knowledge there are no URLs for settings areas.

Thanks. I’ve tried all sorts of combinations and couldn’t find anything that worked so I think you are right.
