Entity picture template not working?

Hi!
Use case: I have a Mushroom Media Player card on my dashboard, and I want to display the entity_picture of the media_player entity as the icon on the card. This works fine when I just add a static entity_picture attribute. However, when I try to add an entity_picture_template attribute to the entity, nothing happens. The entity attributes are as follows:

assumed_state: true
device_class: tv
friendly_name: Woonkamer TV
supported_features: 22457
entity_picture_template: >-
  {% if state_attr("media_player.woonkamer_tv", "app_id") ==
  "nl.uitzendinggemist" %}
    https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/59/Npologo.svg
  {% elif state_attr("media_player.woonkamer_tv", "app_id") ==
  "com.spotify.tv.android" %}

  {% else %}
    https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e3/Google_TV_Icon.svg
  {% endif %}

My question, what am I doing wrong?

  1. Is my template correct?
  2. Is my assumption correct that I should now be able to use entity_picture for this entity and get the correct image?
  3. Does an entity picture template work with mushroom cards at all?

Sorry but this does not look like a mushroom media card to me.

Correct, I only shared the media_player entity’s attributes, my bad. Here’s my card:

type: custom:mushroom-media-player-card
use_media_info: true
show_volume_level: false
fill_container: false
media_controls:
  - on_off
layout: horizontal
name: TV Woonkamer
entity: media_player.woonkamer_tv
tap_action:
  action: navigate
  navigation_path: /lovelace-mobiel/tv-woonkamer
hold_action:
  action: none
double_tap_action:
  action: none
icon_type: entity-picture

As you can see in the mushrooms docs there are no options to change the entity picture as far as I can tell. Have a look at the template card. It allows you to build some kind of custom cards that includes pictures.

So you mean the entity-picture value for the icon attribute of the media card doesn’t support the entity-picture-template of a media player by design?

Edit by the way: I didn’t choose the template card because I think it doesn’t have the media controls

You need to ask author but according to the docs no.
