And your log says?
Hi, is there anyway to add a hot key to the Mini Media Player? I want to basically be able to press m to mute the media player.
Got the idea from the new Quick Bar capability released for entitities and commands.
Ok, so Iām a total noobā¦I managed to install the respository with HACSā¦but what do I do now to have the mini media player appear as a card in my dashboard?
Thanks guysā¦
You add a manual card to a view and enter the config as per the examples and documentation on github (see first post in this topic).
I think Iām still missing something crucialā¦it keeps saying āno card type foundā when I try to add a code of the examples given.
Do I have to add this somewhere?:
"resources:
- url: /local/mini-media-player-bundle.js?v=1.11.0
type: module"
No need if you installed via HACS but if you want to be sure you can check the configuration / dashboards / resources menu.
Paste your card config.
Card-Config:
type: custom:mini-media-player
entity: media_player.gang
hide:
volume: true
source: true
power_state: false
Error:
Custom element doesnāt exist: mini-media-player.
type: ācustom:mini-media-playerā
entity: media_player.gang
hide:
volume: true
source: true
power_state: false
Itās working now. I reinstalled it again and didnāt use the version part of the url but the one HACS recommended instead.
Thanks guys
Should be found under Configuration > Lovelace Dashboard > Resources as seen here,
if not you can simply add it by clicking on the orange + button bottom right corner and adding the following URL & resource type then selecting Create.
I have the same problem, what is weird is that it has been working beforeā¦
You have been able to solve this ?

Hi. Iām new to Homeassistant and Iāve been trying to install a mini media player for two days to add to my SONOS but no matter how hard I try, I canāt get anything. I have installed with HACS and I think it is correctly installed but I donāt know what else to do because when I try to install in Lovelace nothing appears.
There is no error in that screen.
Go to lovelace.
Click on edit dasboard (under the three dot menu on upper right)
Click the big plus to add a card
Click Manual
In the editor that pops up, type
type: custom:mini-media-player
entity: media_player.whatever
Click Save
Job done.

Goedemiddag!
Yes, correct. It has been working for months.
No, it is still not working. I donāt know what these messages mean.
Yours look exactly the same. 
Isnāt someone here who can interpret that?
Ok thank you very much for your prompt reply. Iām going to try it right now. I will also follow your advice for photos from now on.
Great thing youāve created!
I saw some mentions about a TUNIN shortcut button should work, however it doesnāt with me
shortcuts:
buttons:
- id: Willy Radio
icon: 'mdi:radio'
name: Willy
type: TUNEIN
Should I use the āstation nameā or the āidā from the url? (both didnāt seem work).

Thanks @kalkih for this great media player. I have been using it forever.
Was wondering, im using a shortcut for one of my daughters TVās where i also turn on/off the tv through a script shortut button.
Would it be able to change icon for the media player to show a binary sensor for said object to more or less show off if its on or off?
for example
platform: template
sensors:
claratv_pwr:
entity_id:
- switch.claratv
value_template: >-
{{ is_state("switch.claratv", "on") }}
icon_template: >-
{% if is_state("binary_sensor.claratv_pwr", "on") %}
mdi:television-classic-off
{% else %}
mdi:television-ambient-light
{% endif %}
i kind of want an emulated_hue icon that tells me if the tv is on or off.
Would it be able to fork in so that we can use a binary_sensor in the icon field or something?
Cheers! and thanks again for a great app!
Newbie here. Iām playing around with this mini media card and my Sonos speakers. Specifically I am trying to get the example working for āSpeaker Group Managementā from Github -
Right now Iām trying with just three speakers with this code -
type: 'custom:mini-media-player'
entity: media_player.dining_room
hide: null
power: false
icon: true
source: true
speaker_group: null
platform: sonos
show_group_count: true
entities:
- entity_id: media_player.port
name: Family
- entity_id: media_player.bathroom
name: bathroom
But it just results in a player for dining_room and no group button. Not sure why this is failing though I note I donāt have any reference to a āmasterā speaker. Is this broken or am I missing something?
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
