Strange. I tried it again, and this time it worked. I had to tap something on the panel, and then all of the queued-up TTS messages came through at once! Thanks for your help. At least I know now to tap something once the app opens. Not sure why, but at least it works.
Probably it was waiting for user interaction.
Hi, I use wallpanel as well. I solved that problem by clearing the prowser cache. After that, the media player works. It might be, that everytime, the Lovelace is changed, wallpanel needs a restart in order to play media and navigate.
Thanks! That may be a bit of my issue. I’ll need to test that. I did find that when my tablet is connected to a bluetooth speaker (so I can actually hear it), that is when the issue happens. If I disconnect from bluetooth and use the onboard speaker, it seems to work every time. Strange. I’m going to try a lineout speaker instead and see if the same thing happens.
How you managed to install this? I have followed the instructions but nothing seems to work?
Restart Home Assistant, make sure the /config/custom_components/browser_mod/ folder is present, and refresh the page.
Still the same
Hi , I have followed your installation steps but I can’t get it to work , and do you know why this is not available in HACS?

Noticed those errors too the other day, when I had moved the config to a dedicated package. Apparently browser_mod doesn’t like that. Maybe it takes a split second longer to load when not in the root of the configuration, yaml file, but in a dedicated package.
this error remains no matter:
adder = hass.data[DOMAIN][DATA_ADDERS][platform]
KeyError: 'sensor'
where did you declare the browser_mod: section?
Yes, section
It’s odd that you’re receiving those logs, given that that means that it was able to load the JS. Try waiting and then see if you see any sensor.**************** entities.
A few systems reboot and still nothing
Mind sharing:
- More HA logs
- More browser console logs
- Your configuration
- How you determine whether browser-mod is working or not?
I’ve just noticed that in 0.115, the browser-player card doesn’t show the volume slider:
This looks like it’s using ha-paper-slider, so I wonder if it’s similar to the issue I had with my home-feed-card custom card where ha-markdown wasn’t working until I forced it to load by creating a dummy markdown card.
I am playing with the experimental function of browser_mod and it is super useful. However, this is something in the new Safari or iOS14 that makes it impossible to use the ?deviceID=mydeviceID at the end of the URL (although it works if I use google chrome but not safari). Is there a way to issue a command (in a script or automation) that will assign mydeviceID correctly so that media_player.mydeviceid can play on the device that triggered it? Thanks for any insight!
You can assign a custom alias to a device ID w/out that feature, check out the configuration docs.
Yes I know about the aliases but that won’t work for my purpose. What I need is a way that the same button on any device will trigger a streaming of music but that will play on the device from which the trigger was initiated. The new experimental function of browser_mod would do that except for that glitch on iOS or MacOS using safari (it may be just a safari problem). Thanks for the suggestion though.
Try out this.
Hi all,
wondering on how to make this mod work… Is there a video example on how to make the popup work? Should I just work on lovelace or I need to add more info somewhere? Thanks
