well, i have just HA to use to steram to a device, and if i play the same file from the same HA to a rpi3/openelec - works fine, or play to a browser, or a vlc client are okay as well.

glitch69 · July 20, 2022, 3:07pm

thanks for your time to investigate!
Of course, going to run very verbose!

the fact, that the same esp32/DAC, same code, but connected to a test HA, using simple inside IP, like 192.168.1.5:8123 works perfectly with mp3/tts/radio - so this is strange…

glitch69 · July 21, 2022, 9:19am

Hi,
i have run very_verbose, and this is i got:

it was a try to play a local file…
thank you for your time helping me!

glitch69 · July 21, 2022, 11:11am

just a note - maybe it helps - if i copy the link, sent to player by HA, as media url, and open from a browser in the same subnet, it works…

glitch69 · July 21, 2022, 11:57am

and using devtools, and calling the service Media player: Play media - and use the media url as content ID - does not work — does not matter using local ip, duckdns address or external IP with https. But webradio with https works fine…

kiralyc · November 2, 2022, 1:06pm

Hi, is there any solution for this problem? I have the same issue on my HA - ESP setup. Could somebody help us? Or is there any workaround for this problem?

keith1831 · November 8, 2022, 12:28am

i also have the same problem, very frustrating.

duceduc · November 23, 2022, 11:02pm

Count me in on this one as well. I can play local url, but external url links it is unable to play. There is no errors in log. Anyone found the issue??

I’ve added a audio_info snippet to get more log in, but it doesn’t tell me much.

log:

Maco65 · March 29, 2023, 7:47am

Same issue here.
ESP32 with external DAC. Latest (2023.3.2) ESPHome add-on.
It plays local mp3 files and text to speach from Nabucasa.
It will NOT play radio links (from Media libray). The same radio will play on the browser and other media players (like Squuselite) in my system.
Here is the VERY_VERBOSE log from ESPHome:

[22:51:15][D][media_player:059]: 'ESPHome I2S Media Player' - Setting

  key: 3210548230
  state: MEDIA_PLAYER_STATE_IDLE
  volume: 1
  muted: NO
}

It does not tell me much apart that immediately after sending the link to play - which looks like is accepted then it changes status to IDLE.
Any help to resolve this will be appreciated.

Maco65 · March 31, 2023, 9:00am

Interesting enough (by some blind clicking) I have found some of the radio working, while the most of other radio links do not work.
There are examples of working for me:

Media URL: http://212.34.233.78:8000/live
Media URL: http://83.169.36.75:8000/stream
Media URL: http://5.39.16.62:8004/tre
Media URL: http://149.210.138.12:8000/nommeraadio
Media URL: http://5.201.13.191/live

Can you check how is your system working with them ?

Also I have opened issue on github for this.

duceduc · April 2, 2023, 12:22am

Hello. I just tested some urls (2) above and it works.

Maco65 · April 2, 2023, 6:33pm

So, that proves that you CAN play external links! Which also means that issue is not with the links (internal/external) but rather with the player itself which can play some content and cannot other.
Now how can we see what kind of coding is in the radio station which can play and what coding is on others - which cannot be played.

duceduc · April 2, 2023, 9:15pm

Oh. I just reread my previous post above. At the time of setup, I had trouble playing url link, but I had fixed it. Can’t remember what I did, but it works. I was able to play external links and local mp3 files. After some updates of esphome ( I am assuming is the culprit), the local mp3 files stopped working. No errors in the log, no audio coming out of the speaker. If I copy the url link that esphome generate in the log and play it via the browser, it works. Thus, I can also create tts message and it will play fine.

Maco65 · April 3, 2023, 3:46pm

With the latest ESPHome version and HA version my setup is playing mp3 from local HA server with no problem. External links (most of the radio stations) do not play

duceduc · April 7, 2023, 9:44pm

I am a little burnt out from messing with HA. There is always something broken. My current esphome version is 2023.2.2, I’ve read from other post that some of their esp devices would not connect any longer after upgrading to 2023.3. I have yet to upgrade homeassistant to 2023.4.

Update: I have just updated homeassistant to 2023.4.1 and esphome 2023.3.2. No go on playing mp3 files.

Olivier974 · May 18, 2023, 11:34am

Hello guys,

have you found a solution? same boat.

it has worked before and some days ago it works again, then today i want to listen some mucis and its doesnt work again…

I only use local files on /media folder, where there is HDD mount with samba-nas AddOn or DLNA files on my servers.

elik745i · May 19, 2023, 4:08pm

it plays from HTTP but not HTTPS, same here

jumblies · July 15, 2023, 8:35pm

Still no fix on v2023.6.4 but I can play http on an esp8266.

edwardtich · October 21, 2024, 7:23am

found a solution for https?

Maco65 · October 21, 2024, 7:42am

I think Music Assistant is the solution. I have installed it few days ago and I can play on my ESP32 based player some random radio stations.
