That is correct, Peter. It varies by integration right now, since there doesn’t seem to be a standard in Home Assistant itself.
If it doesn’t find any media_content_type=‘favorites’ it will look for the attribute sources_list. We can easily add more types to look for, just let us know what they are.

Yes, it surprised me when I did the favorites browser that “favorites” wasn’t actually a defined “thing” to HA. Shall we take this over to the issue that systex opened.

86

Yes, let’s continue there.

Fix for the favorites released in Release v8.5.9 · punxaphil/maxi-media-player · GitHub

Thanks @PunxsutawneyPhil . As discussed for Squeezebox favorites, this fix also required a fix in the Squeezebox integration, which will be released in 2025.1.1.

@psketch Thanks for helping making this card better :pray:

90

and likewise @PunxsutawneyPhil . Thanks for supporting Squeezebox users with your excellent card.

91

Wow, thanks for this great card @PunxsutawneyPhil.

I particularly like the dynamic volume slider. Would it in addition also be possible to add a maximum volume setting for the ‘normal’ slider?

92

Sure, please make a request on GitHub

93

Thank you for this wonderful card!
When using it with Spotify Content, I cannot see artwork.
Is there a way to get artwork visible with Spotify?
When using your Sonos Player for HA, artwork with Spotify content is no issue…
Thank you, a lot, in advance!

Ok, it’s working fine with Google Devices, but not with my Sony HT-A9 with built-in Chromecast …

I’m using maxi media player on the screensaver of my walltablet (with “WallPanel” from HACS). The player is only visible on the screensaver, when a player has the state ‘playing’. What I did not handle so far: I wand always the one player playing to be forced to be selected (we’re mostly not using several players).

My code at the moment:

type: custom:maxi-media-player
sections:
  - player
  - media browser
  - groups
  - grouping
  - volumes
  - queue
entities:
  - media_player.wohnzimmer_2
  - media_player.eingang
  - media_player.waschraum
  - media_player.kueche
visibility:
  - condition: or
    conditions:
      - condition: state
        entity: media_player.wohnzimmer_2
        state: playing
      - condition: state
        entity: media_player.eingang
        state: playing
      - condition: state
        entity: media_player.waschraum
        state: playing
      - condition: state
        entity: media_player.kueche
        state: playing

      }

Can anyone help me with templating this function to be the player (of the ones mentioned) with the state 'playing’the one on top of this card?

Thank you, a lot, and all the best!

Me too! I have been testing card_mod settings on the card this evening.

My dashboard has the Mini-Media-Player stacked with the standard media-player card, but this has some great features.

I only play radio on the player. So when there is no music, but an adbreak I want to change the word “adbreak”… Is that possible ?

102

You’re going to need to look at what metadata is presented by the media player entity when ads are playing.

103

Check mediaTitleRegexToReplace in the docs

I’m using this card with LMS and I’m having some issues with Spotify playlists in LMS favorites (the favorites tab in the card is automatically populated).
When selecting a playlist, no songs play.
