Did you added the second ps4 with same account as first?

If i add my sons ps4 hassio keeps returning to config screen in hassio. But he sees home assistant in his app list. Naming it with the 4-2 does not help for me.

Difference with 1st ps4 :

1st is wired, second is wifi
1st i use my account , second i use his account.
1st is second gen ps4 , second ps4 is first gen.
1st you have to connect to second screen 1st. second does not give that option it starts in config.

*** Edit ***

Maybe it is better to read other post first. There was the sollution. It was indeed the account, you need to use same account as 1st ps4 to add it.

Thanks love this component

Are you selecting the Home-Assistant “PS4” in the app?

166

I am not even able to reach that place.

167

Same thing is happening with me now. When I try to select a source, I get a time out error:

Is it possible to get state to change faster? Mine change after 40-50sec. Is this normal?

169

Im looking at this, possibly changing the component to use asyncio.

From what state is it taking a long time to change to?
It also may be because of your lan speed. You can try pinging your ps4. If the time is very small ie. a second or less. The problem probably is with the component.

170

In my case the state is from “playing” to “off”. My PS4 is connected wireless so this could be the case. But when i used the PS4 addon that was earlier… it changed much faster with the same wireless connection.

171

The component does not assume states so it will wait for the PS4 to say that it is off. When putting into rest mode. The light on the ps4 should be blinking white for a bit. When it turns orange that is when you should expect the state to change.

172

I just tested and when it turns orange it takes 30-40sec before it changes state. I cant connect my PS4 to internet with cable. So if others that have there PS4 wireless and it uses the same time to change state, its just the way it is :blush:. If you dont have a great fix for it?

173

The same thing has just happened to me after noticing none of my automations were firing. I have have media_player.playstation_4_2.

Did you find a fix?

174

Nope. Same issue all time.
I delete my integration and add another time.

175

hello the component works correctly but when I switch off the playstation 4 and restart the home assistant the integration disappears and I have to redo the whole procedure, how can I solve it?

177

Same on my side.

178

PR created to solve this. Pending review

I get the following error when I run media_player.turn_off and the device is not off… When it is on, it works great. Why would you do that you say. Basically it is part of my “all_off” script that runs when my presence is away or night. It blindly locks the doors, turns everything off. etc.

I’m getting the same error, however I get immediately after starting te integration. So im not even getting to the pin entering screen. Also running hassio on a raspberry pi.

Does this error stop the component completely, for example, you have to restart HA to get it working again? The ps4 does not communicate at all when off btw so that is the reason for the error.

182

HA & the component is fine… No restart necessary. I just moved it to the end with a condition check to see if it’s on. All good.

Simply reporting experience as all the other media_player, remotes, lights, etc turn off just fine even if they are already off.

183

I get an “unknown error occurred” when trying to configure. The home assistant ps4 doens’t show up when refreshing the devices list in the second screen app. I’m using docker and set network_mode: host. this is what shows up in the log:

Any suggestions?

184

OK I think the “unknown error occurred” is just because the connection is timing out. I checked helpers.py and credentials.py and they seem fine as is, but maybe you need to move the rest of the “it works” code into the try/except block. @daanwijffels i think we have the same error.

Now why the connection is timing out is another story. On my part I have checked that ports 987/997 aren’t in use, and the container has host networking. not sure what else I can check though.
