So in my setup I have mounted media in the underlying OS and then substituted a bind mount for the raw nfs and also used links to make it look like my previous Linux install remain the same so all the paths for trackstat remain the same as I migrated that database.
I was reading in the forums and saw so many people having this issue that I went on a different route,
I installed LMS directly on the nas itself in d
ocker. I can also install homeassistant on the nas in docker.
LMS I got running now so that is a good start, I will now look at Home assistant.
I have installed Material Skin from the Plugins page inside of LMS (3rd party section) but then I was not able to open the web interface via HA sidebar. Is this something known and I need to use only the Default skin?
EDIT: When the Default skin selected and Material skin is installed, I’m able to access LMS via HA Sidebar and LMS with the Material skin using http://homeassistant.local:9000/material/.
I would like to use the Material skin as a popup for media-player entity via iFrame, but when I add address /fc57b866_lms/material/ nothing loads - the iFrame is empty, but that’s probably becuase of some Ingress error, right? I’ve read something about that in Grafana thread…
And second question: is there some custom lovelace card for LMS?
I have lms (on another server) via a iframe panel. The server is currently set to default. I get a dialog dsying

Perhaps a clue?
The other possibility is lms hasn’t finished starting after the reboot, what happens when you rretry
Will this play https streams? I would like to stream audio from the youtube music integration to the LMS players exposed in HA, however it doesn’t want to play the link to the youtube music stream which is an https link. I can paste the same link into my browser and it works fine.
Using the Squeezelite add-on on Odroid (Home Assistant OS) does not seem to work. Installing has no issue, but starting the add-on throws out error. Keeps going in an error loop:

I don’t have the option to choose HDMI as audio out. Only default or Built-In Audio Stereo. Could it be this isn’t supported on Odroid using HDMI out as audio?
Edit: to clarify, the HDMI signal is working (I can see the default HA commandline on my TV (through soundbar). I use a Raspberry Pi Zero currently with PiCorePlayer and HDMI to my soundbar. Works great. But if I can hook up my Odroid (which is in the same cabinet) instead, I can save a power cable and use the Pi0 for something else
I cleared all entries, then it did work (perhaps you can’t use spaces in the name field). The add-on now succesfully runs and I can see the player, however there is no audio coming out of my Odroid. I also tried -o pulse as option (which is the same as using pulse in output field). No luck, no audio coming out.
If you have multiple outputs you need to select the right output in the configuration audio section for pulse to work with the right output.
-o pulse will use an alsa based pulse device plugin selecting the pulse build will select the native implementation in squeezelite.
This is tested on a Pi3 running aarch64 with HassOS a usb output and this all works ok.
I am not convied that the onboard HA pulse implementation is seeing the HDMI device, some pocking around with pactrl in in the Web cli might help, Does Built-In Audio Stereo show twice in the dropdown?
