Hi All,
A bit of a weird one here I think…
I use the Chromecast and Plex integrations and have a script that will randomize a Plex playlist and play it to one of my Chromecasts. So far so good, all is working, however, the Chromecast won’t accept skip commands from Home Assistant when playing Plex content, so I can’t skip an episode from Home Assistant (I think this may be a limitation from the Plex player on the Chromecast, as I have the same issue from a Go-Chromecast Ubuntu server I built to test).
As a workaround, I have created a button that uses the service media_player.media_seek to skip past the end of the episode (I think I’m using a seek value of about 8 hours). This works well and works well to skip to the next episode.
The issue is that after pressing the button (and the episode skipping as intended) I get a UI popup with the error:
“unable to call service media_player/media_seek” etc.
I understand why this error is caused, but as it is doing what I intended, I am looking for a way to suppress the error popup in the UI.
Any insight on how to do this would be greatly appreciated!
