Almost everything works, the volume can be set from lovelace and syncs back when i change the volume on the remote, also when i change the input on my remote the - entity: input_select.vsx922_source in ui-lovelace shows the correct source.
But when i select the source from the input_select, nothing happens, does anyone can give me recommendations on what im missing here? Thank you
If im a bit unclear an need to make a video let me know
You don’t have an automation in that package that is triggered by an input_select.
I tought that was the issues.
i tried:
- alias: 'Pioneer VSX922 Source Set'
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: input_select.vsx922_source
action:
service: media_player.select_source
data_template:
entity_id: media_player.vsx922
input_select: '{{ states.input_select.vsx922_source }}'
but i cant get it to work, i must have something wrong but im not sure what part

You were close in your automation. Just needed to add .state to your states.input_select.vsx922_source template. Also, you should add protection for states that aren’t selected and for when the media player is off.

So I have a VSX-930, and I had the same problems with you in setting the inputs from HA. And what solved it for me, was I had custom renamed the inputs, which is seems you have done as well, and for some reason, setting them back to the default name’s and then it started to work. Think something is up with the component and custom input names, but unfortunately its beyond me to work out what it is, so I just set everything back to default and it all works from there.
do you have a github so i can check how your code looks like? also did you renamed the inputs on the receiver or did you have to set them to default on teh receiver aswell? that would kinda skc.
And btw the TV in my input_select is a default name, which is also still tv on my receiver.

I had renamed them on the iPad app, and then just went back in and renamed them back to what it said they should have been on that.
I dont have a github, but this a some of the script samples I use, I dont use any form of selection box or such like through HA, I just use HA to make my life easier, with the idea of not having to use the interface for anything.

What are the errors in the log? Do does your input select names match the source list EXACTLY. That means spelling and Capital letters. I.E. foo does not equal Foo
Hi, yes the names are correctly, no extra spaces or so. Im not very sure what the three option you gave me are, but im using the last one in the automation
{% if is_state("input_select.vsx922_source", "KODI") %} KODI
{% elif is_state("input_select.vsx922_source", "TV") %} TV
{% elif is_state("input_select.vsx922_source", "ZIGGO") %} ZIGGO
{% elif is_state("input_select.vsx922_source", "Chromecast") %} Chromecast

Bah, that’s my bad, I edited the templates I wrote. Copy and try them again. I used the wrong attribute name, now using the attribute name ‘source’.

They all work, depends on what you want to do.
method 1 and 2 are hard coded. Meaning that they are locked to the input_select placed inside the data_template.source. Method 1 uses the states object as an object. This means that during initialization, you could get some errors in the logs. Method 2 uses the states() method. It could return ‘unknown’ if the media_player doesn’t respond, but it shouldn’t error in the logs. Method 3 is agnostic in regards to the trigger method. It would work if you decided to add another input_select.
Your best bet would be to go with method 2 if you never plan on making another dropdown box with selections that point to this media player.
