Hi,
I’m trying to figure out how to incrementally change the volume up/down via HA’s automation, but here’s the only option available that I can find:
I have tried numbers like .75,1, etc., but that doesn’t raise the volume enough. I don’t see a way to enter any numbers outside the (0-1) range.
Thank you
You can send non integer numbers via yaml, I have an automation that trigger off of a input number where I use {{ (((states.input_number.living_room_volume.state | float) / 100) + 0.82) | round(2) }} to set the volume. The input number ranges from - 82db to 0.
How would I incorporate this into an automation? I have pretty much used the GUI at this point for automation. If by chance you can please share your YAML, I will try to add my Pioneer entity and adjust your YAML. I’m basically looking to set it either at a lower volume or a higher volume (at certain volumes which I can play around with once I get this up and running.)
Below is my code (the top portion is just the trigger):
alias: TV volume up/down
description: ""
triggers:
- entity_id: input_boolean.tv_volume_up_down
to: "on"
trigger: state
conditions: []
actions:
- action: media_player.volume_set
metadata: {}
data:
volume_level: 1
target:
entity_id: media_player.sc_lx502
mode: single
The full automation looks like this.
alias: Living Room - Adjust volume (receiver)
triggers:
- entity_id: input_number.living_room_volume
trigger: state
actions:
- data_template:
entity_id: media_player.receiver
volume_level: >-
{{ (((states.input_number.living_room_volume.state | float) / 100) +
0.82) | round(2) }}
action: media_player.volume_set
It looks like you want a hard coded volume, this is an example of that.
actions:
- data:
entity_id: media_player.receiver
volume_level: 0.55
action: media_player.volume_set
Ok, I went back and tried to manually raise the volume and even at 100, it’s barely turning up the volume (maybe 20% of the actual volume.) I didn’t realize this until I double-checked just now. I wonder if there is something I can put in the config yaml to allow it to go higher, as when I turn the knob manually on the receiver (or use the remote control) it goes way higher…
Check the maximum volume setting. I have mine set to 100%. Integrations - > Onkyo - > Configure
Yes, it’s at 100. I read a thread on here from 2017 and it seemed like people were having a similar issue with Pioneer. Apparently, there is (or was) a Onkyo.py file that can be modified to fix this, although I don’t even know if that’s applicable now. It has no problem controlling my unit, it just stops at a super low volume.
What is your volume resolution?
Where do I find this?
Should be able to reconfigure the integration and set it, set it to 200.
Where do I do this?
It won’t allow it.
This might be the resolution, but I am not sure and don’t know where this file is even located? I’m thinking something needs to be adjusted within a file or config yaml?
Looking for volume resolution, not max volume.
OMG, that worked! 2 days of ripping any remaining hair out, lol! I have to say, it wasn’t really clear, as it just shows the IP address and submit, figuring no reason to submit that. Appreciate it!
