I am wondering how to turn on shuffle mode?
What kind of device you have in media_player.spotify_master_bedroom?
I’m trying to make this work with Chromecast
I am using Echo
Thank you for the tip.
Playlist works nicely.
I would like to play a randon playlist of a list of playlists.
Something like here:
I tried it this way
but could not get it to work.
Does anyone have an idea how to get this to work?
What’s not working? I use the script posted every morning to wake to a random playlist.
If you’re having issues with playing Spotify URIs, the issue is with the Squeeze server. Make sure you’re logged in to mysqueezebox.com
I use the new Spotify Connect feature with Panasonic Allplay speakers and an, echo dot. Single Playlists work as described in the first post.
but I tried your your setup like that and it does not start:
spotifydemo:
alias: 'Spotify Demo'
sequence:
- service: media_player.play_media
data_template:
media_content_id: >
{%- set plists = ["spotify:user:spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DX55dNU0PWnO5",
"spotify:user:spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DWVyfHu8SNQgH",
"spotify:user:spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DX9OTdoPfdJpF"
] -%}
{% set pindex = (range(0, (plists | length - 1 ) )|random) -%}
{{ plists[pindex] }}
Error in the log file:

You’re skipping some required data for media_player.play_media.
Try this. It worked for me (except I replaced media_content_id with the value from my example)
spotifydemo:
alias: 'Spotify Demo'
sequence:
- service: media_player.play_media
data:
entity_id: media_player.spotify
media_content_type: playlist
data_template:
media_content_id: >
{%- set plists = ["spotify:user:spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DX55dNU0PWnO5",
"spotify:user:spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DWVyfHu8SNQgH",
"spotify:user:spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DX9OTdoPfdJpF"
] -%}
{% set pindex = (range(0, (plists | length - 1 ) )|random) -%}
{{ plists[pindex] }}
How could I not see that thanks @ih8gates.
Now I just need a shuffle mode like @masterkenobi mentioned .
Want to implement this as well in my alarm clock
When testing, I was able to call that script multiple times and it would repeatedly replace the current playlist/queue with a new random one.
You’re right not enough playlists. Seemed to pic the same playlist 4 times in a row
Still shuffle mode but it seems this one is yet missing as it does not show up in the media_player setup.
In the example in my random-playlist thread, I had to use Logitech Media Server’s API to set the shuffle mode.
The only media_player I’ve got configured that supports shuffle appears to be Kodi (kodi_set_shuffle). It’d be great for other platforms to support shuffle in a consistent way.
Please upvote:
Is it possible to dynamically list all your spotify playlists?
So as soon you create a playlist in Spotify it appear in HASS as a selection list
That would be very useful !!
@ih8gates @derdude1893 @masterkenobi
Should this functionality still work or has it been superceeded?
From the thread I tried three different scripts to get it working as there are different approaches in the thread.
My goal is simply to have a script that will activate a set playlist on a set speaker (Google Mini/Home).

I tested the first one with the services dev tool. Looks like it works fine. What error are you seeing in the logs?
@ih8gates Thanks for your reply. FYI I am not ignoring you but overnight my entire HA stopped working and I am now trying to install on a NUC rather than on a QNAP Container Docker.
When I have finished I will be using my previous config and will repost if there is the same error.
Does anyone have this working? I have tried both approaches without success.
hello how I can get my media_content_id: playlist ?
media_content_id: ???
I done this using adb command. Spotify is installed on my android tv.
service: androidtv.adb_command
data:
entity_id: media_player.android_tv_1
command: >-
am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -n
com.spotify.tv.android/.SpotifyTVActivity -d https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2jFHTHj1s3FF4okSBu9vz5
