Yes! I just discovered sequences when poking around in the Harmony app and that’s exactly what I was looking for. Tested it out where play/pause is sent to the device and then also to HA and it works perfectly!
I’m trying to get Emulated Roku setup, but when I add the integration, no matter what port I configure it to use, I get an error “Address already in use” and I’m unable to view the Emulated Roku at ip:8060 (or whatever port I’ve setup the integration to use). And when I scan for devices in the MyHarmony app, it doesn’t find the Emulated Roku.
Here is the trace:
2023-01-10 19:23:54.893 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.emulated_roku] Failed to start Emulated Roku RokuHA on 192.168.0.109:8068
Traceback (most recent call last):

OSError: [Errno 48] Address already in use
EDIT: I’ve since tried setting up HA and Emulated Roku on a different Mac and I get the exact same issues. No matter what ports I try, Emulated Roku gets an “Address already in use” error when trying to start.
So I am running HASS in a docker container with network as bridge. Is there a way to make this work? It works when I set network to host but that is not a great idea.
A long time ago I added a Roku device to MyHarmony :
I have mapped buttons on the Harmony remote to Roku keys, wich fire events in Home Assistant…works great !
But…only the Roku keys listed here are working. The problem is that not all listed keys are available in the Harmony Software.
F.e. “channel_down” is not available :
Which Roku device should I chose to get the most of the working keys ?
click buttons in the roku device and see what event’s appear. Chances are it’s the page up / page down buttons.
Nope
But…is there a way to get the name of the key ?
This is fired :
- platform: event
event_type: roku_command
event_data:
source_name: Home Assistant
type: keypress
id: general
Now, how can I get the name of the key ?
- conditions:
- condition: trigger
id:
- general
sequence:
Watch the event in event viewer
developer tools → event
I found it with ‘trace’
Meanwhile I found that the list is not complete : InstantReplay and PowerOff are also working.
Thanks for the help !
Some events are sent as infrared to the Roku device, instead of wifi in harmony, so those cannot be used.
InstantReplay is not on the list, but works for me.
- platform: event
event_type: roku_command
event_data:
source_name: Home Assistant
type: keypress
key: InstantReplay
id: open Goplay
` - conditions:
- condition: trigger
id:
- open Goplay
sequence:
- service: script.ga_open_goplay
metadata: {}
data: {}
The list of commads for emulated ROKU includes InstantReplay as listed here:
Correct, thank you !
PS : PowerOff is not on the list, but works too.
Nice, I see now that PowerOff is not listed but fires an event!
