It also reads following:
Choose at step 1: choice 10: Error executing script. Error for call_service at pos 1: Error rendering data template: TypeError: ‘NoneType’ object is not subscriptable
@torbenledermann
Is this expected?
So, according to my analysis the issue is related to the artist (and album + title) not being mapped to a group address. Since there’s the character limit of 14, I didn’t bother mapping it and / or there’s no need for me to ‘spam’ the bus with this information. Unfortunately, the blueprint doesn’t check whether the variable for the GA exists and is non-empty prior to accessing it.
That’s strange normally you should be able to simply leave out group adresses if you don’t use this information. Unfortunately recently i didn’t have that much time to take a look into the blueprint.
But I’ll try to take a look into that issue and some proposed feature requests
Thanks for Your feedback, @torbenledermann.
To short-cut things a bit I decided to create group addresses and map those from the blueprint. Unfortunately the error still occurs. Since we’re having radio stations on our favorites I believe it could still be related, i.e. empty album causes the error.
Error is still „NoneType“ or more precisely:
„Fehler: Error rendering data template: TypeError: ‘NoneType’ object is not subscriptable“
And that’s what tracer shows:
Okay that makes sense. Your media player doesn’t have a artist value in this case. That should be an easy fix. Thank you for your feedback
Yes, I checked that too for that very error.
It seems that a radio stream, may have / miss any combination of artist, title and album might. That’s evident from the media player’s state in Developer Tools.
Hm that’s strange I can’t edit my first post. Anyways I just released a new version.
V1.2.0 - Turn On/Off Action now usable, Shifting to next track when mediaplayer is already playing, Bugfixes regarding missing attributes.
The following features/bugfixes are included:
Is added now as a seperate pair of group addresses.
You can enable this sort of behaviour with a checkbox, next to setting up the group addresses for play/paus
This bug should be fixed now
Thanks, well appreciated, Torben!
I will test the update specifically against the error I‘ve been seeing in a couple of days and then share the results.
