This card is working great, and I use it with my Sonos for grouping, etc. I have added favorites from Spotify, and that works great, however every time the wife selects the playlist it starts at the beginning of the playlist. Is there anyway to create a button and have it call the spotify play list with a shuffle command?
You could unhide the shuffle control - then itād be 2 clicks to start the playlist and then shuffle it. I am not sure if it can be done in one button.
One button? A script would do it. Or, a sensor/automation on state to āplayingā.
Also, the shuffle setting is sticky; set and forget.
Sure, I havenāt played with the scripts that much.
Sticky shuffle is evil. Imagine listening to Sgt Pepper or the White Album out of order!
Well then, that is what conditions are for

Hi there! Iāve been trying to get the Mini Media Player into my system, and I followed the installation instructions via HACS. I added:
# Mini Media
resources:
- url: /local/mini-media-player-bundle.js?v=1.9.1
type: module
into my configuration.yaml, and when I do a vality check I get this:
Component error: resources - Integration 'resources' not found.
Any help to a beginner in HA? 
Can you share your config? The āresourcesā is now required in your configuration.yaml as it caused an error for me in my lovelace-ui.yaml file. Also make sure you donāt have more than one of these lines as that could cause the error too.
Check that the resources entry is under lovelace: so that it looks like this:
lovelace:
resources:
- url: /hacsfiles/mini-media-player/mini-media-player-bundle.js
type: module
also if itās a standard install using HACS the URL should be /hacsfiles/mini-media-player/mini-media-player-bundle.js
With the old HACS version this was written at the end of the installation guide automatically. Now it seems it can not be found anywhere. 
This solved it for me! Should definately be written in the readme!
What would the button code look like for that?
As @Dansker said use a acript button. Your script will play the playlist then set shuffle https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/media_player/#service-media_playershuffle_set
@kalkih, I just found this and itās AWESOME! Nice job with this, easy to configure, fully featured, and aesthetically pleasing.

Hi, I use this for TVs now. Samsung and Fire TV sticks and itās great. I discovered by accident that the cover artwork from Fire TV sticks is whatās on the screen which is nice. Sadly, there is some issue that causes it to disappear more than it appears. Is there any way to keep the last image until a new one arrives?
I cannot find this option anywhere in Home Assistant. Tried clearing the browser data, but to no avail. The controls are gone on all devices, desktop and mobile. Home Assistant 0.110.7.
hello,
could someone please help Iāve just installed this and Iām having issues with the buttons not showing.
does anyone know what Iām doing wrong
Is the player turned on? Some controls are hidden if not. For the rest I do not see any errors, but Iām not very good at YAML ;-).
Yes the player itās on
they only seem to appear under the default theme.
Using a different theme here but I can see the buttons, sorry Iām not able to help you any further. Hope someone else has got an idea why itās not working in your case.
Is it possible to use the following example below as a button on my Sonos media card? Itās working with radio stations added to Sonos favorites but not Spotify playlists (even when added to favorites).
buttons:
# Start predefined playlist
- icon: mdi:cat
type: playlist
id: spotify:user:spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DZ06evO2O09Hg
