That should not be the case. Gmusicproxy is it’s own thing, Can you test that it works stand alone? Are you using @miikkajo addon for gmusicproxy? There are other people using this as well. I am not aware of any breaking changes between miikkajo addon and this gmusic player.
getting the gmusicproxy to work outside gmusic player is a seperate thing. Solving that is needed to fix song advance but I don’t think gmusicproxy will solve the playlist issue.
Well that seems like there are no songs in the playlist…
Can you go to the Google music web page and make a new playlist with exactly 3 songs and then restart Home Assistant – Does the new playlist show up – Can you play any of the songs in the new playlist?
I see there are other things I must do to activate/authorise gmusicproxy, in terms of Playlist I created a new one with three songs, still get same errors, I might have to reinstall everything it seems
Im sorry your having problems with this. I hope a reinstalling gets it sorted. I haven’t given up on this project but I also have not had the time to put toward properly learning python. This really needs to be re-written from the ground up by someone who actually knows what they are doing!
Just updated to 0.2 and there’s an error referring to gmusic_authtoken:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/root/.homeassistant/.gmusic_authtoken'
The issue is that DEFAULT_TOKEN_PATH = get_default_config_dir() + '/.' in media_player.py doesn’t get the correct path on my install (formerly known as Hassio) so I changed it to DEFAULT_TOKEN_PATH ='/config/.'
Hi @Petrica
Sorry about that. There doesn’t seem to be a good way I can get the actually configuration directory. ( At least I haven’t figured it out yet. ) There is an optional setting though
You can change the path by setting token_path in the gmusic_config.yaml package file.
Example
## Google Music Media Player
## gmusic_config.yaml
media_player:
- platform: gmusic_player
device_id: !secret gmusic_device_id
username: !secret gmusic_username
password: !secret gmusic_password
speakers: # media_players
- bedroom_stereo
- workshop_stereo
gmusicproxy: !secret gmusic_proxy
token_path: /config/.
The previous versions used DEFAULT_TOKEN_PATH = "./."
I’m surprised to hear that actually worked
It did seem to work in the FreeNAS plugin as well - I’m just gonna revert that change. I reverted this change in v0.2.1 It should work again without setting token_path

I have not changed the files in the custom_components, what could be the problem, I’m running 105.5 and HassOS 3.11. I need help…
You shouldn’t have to redo everything. Just copy the new config files into place. The biggest change is that speakers are configured under g music player instead of as an input select. Then just add your g music proxy back in to the new config and you should be good to go
I am already redoing it, I’ve deleted everything now, I am thinking maybe I am doing something wrong by tinkering here and there. I’ll Feedback in ten minutes
So for automatic – I don’t know about playlist but it is possible for stations. It’s just that its all or nothing. So for example right now I filter the stations to only include what’s in you library – Without that filter the list of stations is over 200 long. I don’t have a better to allow some automatic stations but not others.
But for thumbs up playlist I think I could add this – Assuming I can filter the same way I do for the stations, I can just look for songs with a thumbs up and only add those songs to a dedicated “Thumbs Up” playlist.
Is there a possibility that you’re willing to share your theme (including the background) and the code to implement it. I like it very much. (I’m only a beginner, that’s why I ask for the code too)
That should not be the case. Gmusicproxy is it’s own thing, Can you test that it works stand alone? Are you using @miikkajo addon for gmusicproxy? There are other people using this as well. I am not aware of any breaking changes between miikkajo addon and this gmusic player.
as Hassio) so I changed it to 
haven’t got to that section of the instructions as the previous version just worked without it.
