Conditional card, driving me nuts

Configuration Frontend
1

Hey.

I have two cards, I want to display the Spotify card if Spotify is playing and when it’s turned off/inactive it should display my recently added videos to plex. The code I have so far is this;

So my understanding from the below YAML is.

The state of that sensor sensor.plex_recently_added can not be PLAYING so it’s FALSE and should not display the card.

Then the next one; IF the state is PLAYING of media_player.spotify then show the card under it.

So, if the condition is TRUE then show the card, right? If so, when I deploy below code it displays the Plex card only and not the Spotify card even if it’s playing… So I reckon that it’s thinking the state is TRUE but whatever I try I can not get it to work…

              - type: horizontal-stack
                cards:

                  - type: conditional
                    conditions:
                      - entity: select.conditional_media
                        state_not: playing
                    card:
                      type: custom:button-card
                      entity: sensor.plex_recently_added
                      name: Net toegevoegd
                      tap_action:
                        action: none
                      template:
                        - conditional_media
                        - icon_plex    
                        
                  - type: conditional
                    conditions:
                      - entity: select.conditional_media
                        state: playing
                    card:
                      type: custom:button-card
                      entity: media_player.spotify
                      tap_action:
                        action: none
                      template:
                        - conditional_media
                        - icon_spotify

Also when I put the spotify card up as first one and Plex under it (so If I reverse it) it will only show the Plex card for me…

Ok, I managed it myself seconds after opening a post, my bad.

I did not target the right entities in the code, instead of select.conditional_media (which I copied from somebody else) I should’ve targetted the entity directly.
