Glad to hear it. I hope to hear back from you after you’ve had a chance to see it actually working properly. A far as I’m aware, you’re the only beta-tester at the moment, although the views on this thread keep increasing, so maybe that’s a good sign.
Be sure to update to the latest version also, currently v1.7.3.
Awesome! Please let me know if you run into any issues! I’m working to correct a possible flaw in the the game title overrides not being properly applied, so if you see a new version pop up today, that’s probably the fix it will include. Something I modified yesterday may be interfering with it.
I am not aware of any other current bugs, but if you run into anything or need help setting up any dashboard cards, let me know!
BTW, After you’re done playing, the status SHOULD show something formatted like “Last seen 2h ago: NHL 26 (1h 37m)”. If it DOESN’T, please let me know, and I can investigate the issue.
v1.7.5 is live now, which should be a bit better optimized for performance and includes a fix for the game title overrides (which I’m sure you’re not using yet, but I still needed to fix that feature). It allows you to rename things like “Minecraft for PlayStation” to just “Minecraft” or “Grand Theft Auto V” to “GTA 5”, for example.
Ok so the “Gaming status” entity looks like this, it shows offline now but under attributes it does indeed say “Last played: NHL 26”, that’s what you mean right or should it also be in the entity state?
Not sure if something just configured wrong but the chart entity shows 0hrs but tbh thats not a big deal for me all the platforms already track their own hours anyway
Meanwhile for my gaming dashboard Im gonna have to rebuld that soon since with the HA PS integration it makes everything entities while the HACs version makes few entities and instead puts most of them as attributes instead like the trophies and overall level lol…
Btw random but wonder why the Xbox and Steam entities don’t pull the profile picture when the HA addons already do but thats not a big deal just a question.
The sensor data looks good. The state will show “Offline” while the “Last Seen” status shows as the “secondary” attribute.
Looks like I accidentally broke the charting today, since it SHOULD have incremented and I just looked at mine and they seem to be stuck at 0 now also. I’ll fix that.
Also, Steam and Xbox SHOULD grab profile images also. I’ll make sure I didn’t mess anything up with that because it was working before.
I just pushed out 1.7.6. This will hopefully fix the chart sensor and the missing Xbox and Steam profile images. 
The chart total should update upon restart.
From your sensor screenshot, it DID properly track your game time, but it just wasn’t added to the chart sensor. The chart sensor is nice to have because it totals your game time across all platforms.
If you get a chance, please let me know if the latest version (1.7.8) is providing proper gamerpics for Steam & Xbox and whether the chart sensor is showing total playtime. I may have not included the most recent updates in the last release since I think I forgot to sync one of the files first.
Steam always showed the profile pic btw, Xbox appears to be kind of working, like there’s an image but I don’t properly see it… also PS doesn’t load my profile pic…
Also I see that under attributes it tracks the playtimes which is cool, and now chart sensor appears to be finally working.
Btw I just noticed for PS the game cover and banner are provided, cool, any thoughts on making your own custom card to show all this info easily? Just wondering, was gonna adpot your integration my current gaming dashboard anyways.
EDIT: Sorry I had to edit the message cuz realize I forgot to restart HA after updating so I never had the update at the time of first writing, oops…
I suspect that I have not been having issues since I had been using local images for those, which it prioritizes over the one from the integrations. So, it’s possible that the gamer pictures have been broken for a while and I just haven’t noticed.
I just released v1.8.2 which seems to fix the issue for me after deleting my local images. Give it a try and let me know.
Oh, and I can provide YAML for a card that shows the hero image for the game being played. There are a couple examples on the dashboards.md file on GitHub. The “Active Games Slideshow” is probably the one you’ll want.
Perfect, they all show the profile pics now! I might try and using a mushroom template card to add a badge to the gaming status entity to show the platform being played like that.
Also cool I will probbaly use some of those examples on my own dashboard.
Glad it’s working now, and thanks for all of your testing!
That’s exactly what I do with my cards - The “Currently Playing” card sits right next to the “Active Games” slideshow and does exactly what you mentioned, overlaying the platform badge on the picture. I use the “Anyone Gaming” sensor (which you have to make yourself) to detect if anyone is gaming and hide the card completely if not. That one, and the “Recent / History” card are probably my favorite. I have cards for each platform as well, but that’s probably overkill and more of a “just because I can” type of thing. 
I noticed that all of your cards only show “Offline” instead of “Last seen…”. If you have it show the secondary attribute instead of the state, it’s a little more useful, in my opinion. You have to use Mushroom Template for that. I have the state basically show Offline or Game Title only, although now I can’t even remember why I set it up that way instead of pushing the “Last Seen” status to the state. Maybe I’ll look into that further. 
Edit: Ahhh… I remember now. Partially it was to avoid database bloat with the sensor updating every minute and to make automations and notifications a bit easier. I’ll leave it as-is and users can control the display from the front-end instead.
v1.8.3 is out now, which adds a binary sensor for "Anyone Gaming". This is useful for showing/hiding dashboard cards or creating automations.
I just released v1.8.4. This one includes support for the new Gaming Status Cards, making it MUCH easier to have the output from the Gaming Status integration incorporated into your dashboard!
