I have an automation the triggers every time chromecast is set to playing but when it’s changing to the next episode it’s inactive for a few seconds and then back to playing witch triggers the automation again.
Is there a way to fix this?
What about showing us what you have done and get the formatting right plz
alias: 'soundbar: tv of cast aan sound on'
description: ''
trigger:
- platform: device
device_id: cfa1dc98b87ecd774dd66e2ba08c0c0c
domain: media_player
entity_id: media_player.mediabox_2
type: playing
- platform: state
entity_id: media_player.woonkamer
to: playing
condition: []
action:
- service: remote.send_command
target:
entity_id: remote.broadlink_pro_remote
data:
device: soundbar_woonkamer
command: stroom
mode: single
Making sure the media_player was off is probably what you need.

Before it goes to playing It’s inactive
Then make the condition inactive then.
But is inactive really the off state of your media_player? Sounds strange to me…
its a google chromecast
it goes from off to inactief to playing
and when it goes to the next episode its inactief for a few seconds and then back to playing
In that case it should be as I posted in the first place. off
