Hoping somebody can help…
I’m trying to get some Plex playlists pushed to Alexa
I would like to be able to send a plex playlist to an Alexa media player device, but I’m getting a bit confused.
I believe the key issue is that I’ve added my Plex Server, but I only seem to have Sensor entities that comes from it… nothing shows in the mdeia player section…
Additionally I have Alexa Media Player set up and can successfully send sounds to my Alexa (I’ve only ever done this with a notify event however
I have been trying to figure out how to interact with my TV and Plex for awhile with no success.
This a simple version of the routine seems to be missing something or I’m chasing something that isn’t supported
- id: upstairsTVonAtTime
alias: "Turn on Upstairs TV at specific time and play random Seinfeld episode via Plex"
trigger:
- at: "21:03:00"
platform: time
action:
- service: media_player.play_media
entity_id: media_player.lg_webos_tv_un7300aud
data:
media_content_type: movie
media_content_id: 'plex://{ "library_name": "TV", "show_name": "Seinfeld", "shuffle": "1" }'
- delay: "00:15:00"
- service: media_player.media_stop
data:
entity_id: media_player.lg_webos_tv_un7300aud
Damn… Really wish I could get this to work. Could be used apart of the routine I have for security when we go on vacation that is triggered by motion detected on the cameras.
