Okay…this was the last piece of the puzzle to have a totally navigation free wall mount interface…a full screen clock popup that opens and auto-closes via motion detected in room. Thanks! (again) @thomasloven… clock screensaver code

I am sooo… lost. I have been trying to test by posting JSON to the browser_mod.command service with no luck… I just want to get something to happen prior to building out automations. Am I even close?

  • DeviceID should be just the deviceID of the browser, not the entity_id of the mediaPlayer.
  • There’s a difference between popup and close-popup.

There is no need for service_data when you are calling a service from the dev panel.


{
  "command": "popup",
  "title": "Popup example",
  "card": {
    "entity": "camera.front_door",
    "type": "picture-entity"
  },
  "deviceID": ["63677d42-8f462a81"]
}

Hi Thomas, cannot find in the installation instructions how to get the browser ID, can you please document it for us ?
As well can see a JS folder on GitHub, what we suppose to do with it?

Thanks a lot.

Is there any way to make it work on android chrome browser?

Thank You

32

Works fine here, everything I am currently running is Chrome based. @adas4190

Oh ok. Could you tell me how to check what id is my phone as i have uniqeids only without any description please? Thank You

34

The directions are very detailed and in the docs provided by Thomas. After installing, you need to add the player to a view and the I.D. will show.

35

Thank you.

Yep, I tried it that way as well and still no Joy…

Make sure you have cleared your cache, start with no deviceID, and start with a simpler command, like blackout or navigate. Does the media player for the browser show up in your entities list?

Yes, the media player shows up. That’s how i got the device_ID.

also nothing in the logs…

That works for me:

{
  "command": "popup",
  "title": "Popup example",
  "card": {
    "entity": "camera.front",
    "type": "picture-entity",
"camera_view": "live"
  },
  "deviceID": [
    "67e7aca5-59360939"
  ]
}
