No, thanks.
It will size to the size of the background image, so make the background image the size of the typical album art. It really is as simple as that. The question was: I want an image displayed when there’s no art, keeping the sizing in tact.
You don’t need card mod. See above.
Source: I’m doing it all, which is why I suggested it in the first place. Just an image, sized correctly.
If you’ve got that working, please post your YAML.
For whatever reason, without card_mod
, the card always collapses when there is no cover art to what I showed here using either full-cover
or full-cover-fit
, and with the image sized to 385x385, 640x640 or 1600x1600.
1600x1600 is what’s recommended for Spotify cover art, so I assume that’s what you mean by typical.
Well, there seems to be at least 2 of us whose experience is different from yours - would be helpful if you posted your code as requested.
I’m doing it for the cover
artwork option. It only transpired later that there’s a requirement for the full-cover
and full-cover-fit
options, and in that case, I don’t see another option. It’s ironic (to me) to make something that was designed to be mini not-so-mini, but to each their own.
Re: Mantaining card aspect ratio when using artwork: full-cover
if no cover art is available or when the target player is idle.
Currently, if there is no cover art available or when the target payer is idle, the card will collapse from the 1:1 ratio of cover art to the minimum size needed to fit any configured control and information elements of the card. For better control over the position of cards on a dashboard, it can be desireable to maintain the same size and shape of the card
If you’re looking to do this, the most consistent way appears to be setting the overall card aspect_ratio
with the custom component card_mod. At least, this has worked for @reste_narquois and me in testing.
Here’s a comparison using a square background image:
And here is the configuration for the rightmost card:
type: custom:mini-media-player
entity: media_player.dining_room
card_mod:
style: |
ha-card {
aspect-ratio: 1 / 1;
}
artwork: full-cover-fit
background: /local/images/idle_grid_dark.png
Note that artwork: full-cover
and artwork: full-cover-fit
have the same result in this case.
Is it possible to get a volume slider for each Sonos speaker in my group?
If I use the volume slider in the top of the card, it only changes the volume for the master speaker (The first speaker I used as entity when the card was created).
I would like to be able to change the volume for each speaker…
Code for the card:
type: custom:mini-media-player
entity: media_player.koekken
hide:
power: true
speaker_group:
platform: sonos
show_group_count: true
entities:
- entity_id: media_player.koekken
name: Sonos Køkken
- entity_id: media_player.stue
name: Sonos Beam Stue
- entity_id: media_player.badevaerelse
name: Sonos Badeværelse
entities:
- type: custom:mini-media-player
entity: media_player.multiroom_player
group: true
source: icon
artwork: cover
info: short
hide:
volume: false
power: true
- type: custom:mini-media-player
entity: media_player.koekken
group: true
hide:
controls: false
- type: custom:mini-media-player
entity: media_player.stue
group: true
hide:
controls: false
- type: custom:mini-media-player
entity: media_player.badevaerelse
group: true
hide:
controls: false
artwork: cover
source: full
sound_mode: full
Quick Question.
How would I change the name of the dropdown list?

I’m not sure if you can configure individual volume controls, however you are able to make the main slider control all speakers in the group using sync_volume:
. I know its not what you asked for, but maybe could help your use case?
speaker_group:
platform: sonos
show_group_count: true
sync_volume: true
....
Thanks for the reply!
It’s way better then before, I will implement this and give it a try.
I’m kinda new til HA/YAML, so not that strong with this yet.
Could I make it so the speakers volume slider is always available, and not just under the “grouping” menu? That way I could have a card that I could expand or something, and then change it individual.
Another question regarding this also:
I have tried to create some buttons to start spotify playlists from, but I can’t start the stream to my speakers. I get the same results, when I test in the ‘Developer Tools’ under ‘Services’.
I have tried to stream to both the ‘Køkken’ and ‘Stue’ speakers with no luck.
I use the information in the ‘Name’ field, as I understand i should’n be the ‘Entity ID’.?

Nevermind, for some reason it started working when I created a new dashboard and view, however, artwork isn’t showing, I saw someone hade the same issue on Github.
Hi everyone!
I’m trying to cast the MMP to my Nest Hub, I’ve read and tried…for some it seems to work and for some not.
I get the “Custom element doesn’t exist” on the Nest Hub when casting, casting other stuff works.
Can anyone please help or point me in the right direction?
Is it possible to edit the player so that the round artwork is on top of the title of the song thats playing?
Currently this is my sidebar:
Just adding this for future tinkerers looking for a complete script. I adapted this to work while playing or paused (at least on an Apple TV):
- seek_interval:
alias: Seek Interval
fields:
media_player:
description: Media Player to be positioned.
example: media_player.apple_tv_theater
interval:
description: Time in seconds from current position to be seeked. (+) Fast Forward. (-) Rewind.
example: -10
sequence:
service: media_player.media_seek
target:
entity_id: "{{ media_player }}"
data:
seek_position: >-
{% if (states('media_player.apple_tv_living_room') == 'playing')%}
{{(as_timestamp(now())-as_timestamp(state_attr(media_player, 'media_position_updated_at'))+state_attr(media_player, 'media_position'))|float+interval}}
{% else %}
{{state_attr(media_player, 'media_position')|float+interval}}
{% endif %}
Thanks for the running start!

Hi there,
is there a way to present both volume change methods? i mean - the slider and the buttons?
Sometimes there is a need to change a value 1 and with slider it is difficult to do.
