Help with code for my home theater using custom feature card

Configuration Frontend
1

Hi everyone, I’m new to Home Assistant and a bit overwhelmed by all the features. I’m trying to integrate my home theater setup into HA because I’m tired of juggling five different remotes.

Now to my issue: I downloaded the custom_feature_card from HACS and have been experimenting with it. I’m starting to hit a wall, though. I’ve attached a screenshot showing how I want it to look in the end.

So far, I’ve managed to get the power button, volume control, and source selection working (which took me all day!). What I can’t figure out is how to switch between my projector and TV.

I have a Denon 3800X receiver, with the projector connected to Monitor 1 and the TV to Monitor 2. Can anyone help me with this?

I don’t use feature cards, but I think you’re missing value_attribute for current state…

Hi, not to overwhelm you more, but for remotes, you could also have a look at the Universal Remote Card. They have some pretty good examples listed.

thanks for the hint!

Thanks for the hint. I’ll try to incorporate that. I also wanted to show which source is currently selected, which hasn’t worked so far. Maybe this is the solution.
