• How would i Set the favorites? Its not necessary, to do this dynamically. For me its enough, when i can set favorites in Settings or yaml.
• Is there a way, to play complete media folders instead of single files from local disk? In my case i use mopidy, if it is necessary.
• Is there a way to filter the sources?

Did you have any luck finding answers since there has been a reply posted

I love the card and im using it with spotify. When i go to the favorites tab instead of showing me my playlists it shows me my spotify connect devices? has anyone found a solution for this?

@PunxsutawneyPhil The card is just amazing, thank you! Would you be able to advise on how to set the favorites? It now shows only the radio channels, no matter what I set to topFavorites.

I am as well having this outcome too. Would like to display playlists as documented. Tried with SpotifyPlus as entity and same result. Any other means to show playlist?

You can create your own favorites (for instance if the device platform you use doesn’t already provide it):
Maxi Media Player - Custom Favorites

cant seem to be able to install this with HACS. theres also no option for lovelace or frontend with the newer update.

HACS changed their UI. It’s called “Dashboard” now. I have updated this card’s documentation.

Hi there,

I’ve followed the steps outlined and I can see the Maxi Media Player as doenloaded in HACS, but I don’t know how to use it. When I try and edit a dashboard and add a card, Maxi Media Player is not available. I’m probably doing something hopelessly (I’m still very much learning!)… I hope someone can give me a hint as to how to actually use this - it looks amazing!
