Wrap them inside any other card that has a background e.g. entities card or vertical-stack-in-card.
Yees you can, you can call any service from the buttons, e.g. light.toggle, see example.
vertical-stack does not have a background.
Try a card with a background and use group: true on the mini-media-player cards.
You didn’t understand me. I know how to use the poster on your card, but I want to use it on a picture card and I wish to know how can I do it.
Amazing project! And it’s amazing how configurable this card is. I have a question though:
Is it possible to use CSS style to this? To set te size of the card for example? I’d like to match the style of the mini-media-player to the rest of my dashboard.
Thanks!
Have a look at card-mod.
There’s also a card option called scale but not sure if that willh help you.
I can set the size with this methood:
- artwork: full-cover-fit
style: |
ha-card {
height: 400px;
}
background: /local/kodicase.jpg
entity: media_player.kodi_rpi4
icon: 'mdi:kodi'
info: scroll
type: 'custom:mini-media-player'
awesome! thanks. The Style option does exactly what i wanted
I’m having some issues with the Sonos grouping. I have/had it working using the older multi-player method, but using the Speaker Group managment, getting the following error:
using the following code:
- entity: media_player.playbar
hide:
icon: true
power: true
source: true
speaker_group:
entities:
- entity_id: media_player.playbar
name: Sonos Office
- entity_id: media_player.parlour
name: Sonos Livingroom
- entity_id: media_player.lovenest
name: Sonos Kitchen
- entity_id: media_player.roamer
name: Sonos Bathroom
- entity_id: media_player.cabana
name: Sonos Bedroom
platform: sonos
show_group_count: true
type: 'custom:mini-media-player'
If you’re using the GUI to add cards, remove the dash (-) before entity.
Not the vertical stack, the custom vertical stack in card. It will do what you want and stack them inside of a card. So there will be no break.
not sure what you mean, there is vertical stack or manual no custom vertical stack
tried this one but its not working, what am I doing wrong?

First let me say that I love this project, many thanks for your efforts.
I’m having a problem getting entities into the card. It might just be a simple thing hopefully. I’m using the card for a Roku, 4 buttons on top for most used channels, and three buttons below to simulate remote button presses. I’ve created entities for the button presses that work elsewhere in my HA, but I can’t get the “type” right I guess. I read the readme and tried a bunch of options but nothing seemed to work. Here’s my card:
entities:
- artwork: cover
entity: media_player.roku
hide:
icon: true
volume: true
shortcuts:
buttons:
- icon: 'mdi:netflix'
id: Netflix
type: source
- icon: 'mdi:plex'
id: Plex - Stream Free TV & Movies
type: source
- icon: 'mdi:emby'
id: Emby
type: source
- icon: 'mdi:home'
id: input_boolean.roku_home
type: source
- icon: 'mdi:chevron-left'
id: input_boolean.roku_left
type: action
- icon: 'mdi:checkbox-blank-circle-outline'
id: input_boolean.roku_select
type: action
- icon: 'mdi:chevron-right'
id: input_boolean.roku_right
type: action
columns: 4
source: icon
type: 'custom:mini-media-player'
show_header_toggle: false
theme: slate
title: null
type: entities
I’ve tried a few things for “type”, action was just the last thing I tried before giving up so that’s what’s left there. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks
can anyone assist with that?
Thanks
how can I move the shortcuts buttons (such a good feature btw!) underneath the actual card so that it wouldn’t overlap the underlying media thumbnail? (perhaps using cardmod)
The best solution would probably be to switch from the built-in shortcuts to button-cards and wrap the button cards and the mini-media-player (with group: true) inside e.g. an entities card or a vertical-stack-in-card.
