Did you ever get this working. I was looking to change some light colors based on what is playing, but unfortunatly, It does not show what is playing for me. just on/off

Yep, was working before the update, and that was really cool and was working fast.
Now I use a player sensor and attribute “XboxOne Full” but that is a real bug pain when there are more users of the box. Also sometimes it does not see that player left the game.

In past I had a template sensor for what is playing it still works for some apps:

    # Xbox one source sensor  media_player.xboxone  source --> media_title: Spotify | Xbox 
  - platform: template
    sensors:
      xbox_one_source:
        friendly_name: 'Xbox One Source'
        value_template: >-
          {% if is_state('media_player.xboxone', 'off') %}
            Offline    
          {% else %}
            {{ states.media_player.xboxone.attributes["media_title"] }}
          {% endif %}

Anyone using the native Xbox integration to launch apps? I’d like to be able to launch Plex. According to the docs, I need to get its product_id by launching it from Media Browser. However, it only shows games in there and not apps.

Am I doing something wrong?

411

Can’t remember off the top of my head how I got the product_id, but I use the native integration to launch the rewards app on startup, and it’s been really reliable. I’ll look into it again when I get a chance

@flyize ok so you can find the product Id under Manage App → File info. Just downloaded the Plex app and it shows 9NBLGGH3ZZVF

Thank you!

Is UPnP the only way to instantly detect if the Xbox on? UPnP sucks and have it off on my router.

edit: It seems that the UI doesn’t immediately update, but Node Red is immediately triggered once it turns on. No UPnP required.

Guys

Good day. I am having trouble. I want to integrate my 2 son’s XBOX 1S consoles into HAOS Server. There are so, sooo many pages to this topic, so many things on the www. I tried some of it, I cannot get this to work.

Please help?

416

@casperj there is one page that describes integration from A to Z:
Xbox - Home Assistant (home-assistant.io)
If you follow up steps there you will get it working.

This card uses, xapi and xbl api.

@Leonardons How you did it. What’s that card?

419

Was made with “custom:button-card”, and I used two api’s for the data!

420

Nice one, if that is not complicated I would be more than happy if you can share recipe how to cook it.

NIce, I will give it a try!

423

Is there a way to default the Xbox Friends sensors to a different ‘room’? One other than where the Xbox is located. I have more than one xbox and would like to separate out the friends sensors that show up without having to manually manage them.

424

@Leonardons what card did you use it?

425

Only custom button card?!

426

Nicely done, thanks for a quick answer!

427

Awesome card, would be great if you can share the code for the whole card!
