@luisi.steve are you sure you are using the right entity names for your cast device? As it wouldn’t be very logical to create a group (Home Group) for 1 single device.
OHhhhhhh my Gosh… your right… it never saved my changes to the scripts file…
I never did create the group “home_group” at all was just going to use this with one cast device…
I still had this

Anybody got service: media_player.media_seek to work?
Is this possible with hass.io? Another poster earlier meantioned it not working but maybe things have changed?
Is it possible to do something like this:
icon: "{%- if is_state('input_number.radio_volume', '0')-%}mdi:volume-off{%- else -%}mdi:volume-high{%- endif -%}"
That’d be nice 
Sure, use icon_template:
icon_template: >
{%- if is_state('input_number.radio_volume', '0')-%} mdi:volume-off
{% else %} mdi:volume-high
{% endif %}Ohh, sorry, I forgot to say I’ve tried using a template, but I can’t figure out the indentation. I’ve tried every variant I could think of…but it always complains. Below is my input_number.yaml.
radio_volume:
name: Volym
#icon: mdi:volume-high
#icon_template: >- "{%- if is_state('input_number.radio_volume', '0')-%}mdi:volume-off{%- else -%}mdi:volume-high{%- endif -%}"
icon_template: > {%- if is_state('input_number.radio_volume', '0')-%} mdi:volume-off{% else %} mdi:volume-high{% endif %}

Anyone using media_extractor? For some reason my previous code is not working. Earlier it worked flawlessly to extract audio from any YouTube URL and play to Google Home speaker.
Now it starts streaming then stops after few minutes. There were no errors in the log file.
This is awesome! At first I was disappointed because there wasn’t a way to use Pandora playlists. However I’ve been scouring Iheart radio and other streaming sites and I’ve been able to get stream URLs to most of the music I like. I’m not sure if a true Pandora component is possible, but this is a close 2nd.

Anybody got service: media_player.media_seek to work?
can someone help me with this radio? it works in slow motion... :(
media_content_id: http://radiodeejay-lh.akamaihd.net/i/RadioDeejay_Live_1@189857/master.m3u8
#media_content_type: 'audio/mp4'
#media_content_type: /local/master.m3u8
#media_content_type: 'audio/mp4a'
media_content_type: 'application/x-mpegurl'
I don’t understand, can you be more specific? What code snippet is that?
Sure, it’s a simple script to test the streaming of the radio.
I’ve read almost the whole discussion, and I’ve noticed that to listen to a streaming .m3u8 I have to use media_content_type: ‘application / x-mpegurl’ and it works, but it’s slow-motion … I was wondering if anyone could help me solve because it goes to slow motion.

media_content_type: 'application/x-mpegurl'First time i’m hearing this, strange behaviour. I assume you allso tried audio/mp4 as content_type (since it’s commented out in your post)?
Yes, I tried “audio / mp4”
I also tried to put the master.m3u8 file in the www folder and using media_content_type: /local/master.m3u8 but the same result. The sound is slowed.
With VLC on PC it’s okay.
Ok, this radio is very hard to get 
My hardware is raspberry3 model B sd card 32GB Samsung EVO
Thanks anyway.
I see these errors in logs:

Why it happened? How fix it?
Is there a way to customize your package to use also google home speakers? And if yes, HOW???
It’s working with Google Home allready, I’m using 6 of them myself.
Can you share how you added these in your package?
