Let’s see if it turns up in HA 
@vulcanjedi Just remembered someone posted a similar issue before and checked on it, turns out it’s the exact same error found here. Make sure you’re using the latest version and maybe give a reinstall just in case.
I don’t know what sorted it, I restarted the Plex server, HASSIO and uninstalled/reinstall Plex Assistant, then ask google to update sensor, now it probably works (can’t test now, the missus is watching TV), it does show up in the sensor.plex_assistant_devices
Thanks, @mayker
thanks @mayker
I use the HomeAsssitant core via docker.
I just went to config and manually made the dirs. but git cloned so would hope the latest.
is there a better way to install?
shoudl it be /config/custom_components/plex_assistant
ls custom_components/plex_assistant/
helpers.py __init__.py localize.py manifest.json process_speech.py __pycache__ sensor.py services.yaml
Nah, that should be fine. Delete the __pycache__ folder just in case, it will appear again on next restart.
So if I use git clone:
it creates plex_assistant/custom_components/plex_assistant
To get the component to work i have to move the files to /config/custom_components/plex_assistant
but I still get the previous errors when trying to run a command from Google device…unless my IFTTT applet isn’t configured properly?
Configuration check passes. No errors in notification.
Sensor is working.
This doesnt work from the Google voice devices / dev tools

/config/custom_components/plex_assistant is the correct folder, you are installing correctly.
Try adding a logger service to tell us what Plex Assistant is receiving. Replace your plex assistant automation with the one below. This will add the command it receives to your HA log.
- alias: Plex Assistant Automation
trigger:
- event_data:
action: call_service
event_type: ifttt_webhook_received
platform: event
condition:
condition: template
value_template: "{{ trigger.event.data.service == 'plex_assistant.command' }}"
action:
- data_template:
command: "{{ trigger.event.data.command }}"
service_template: '{{ trigger.event.data.service }}'
- service: system_log.write
data_template:
message: "{{ trigger.event.data.command }}"
level: warning
Oh, that’s interesting. Same error?
Yes I believe so sir.
I will update the automation w/ the logger as you suggested.
Updated automation with the before mentioned.
Rebooted Hass instance

Weird when I added an alias it stopped throwing errors.
Plex will instantiate you can see the correct movie loading on the info bar but hen it flickers to other stuff and then just spins saying Playing Plex and then hangs/dies.
Greetings,
Sorry if this is something that has already been asked before:
I got plex_assistant running on homeassistant and I am using ifttt. The server is trying to play on a Chromecast Ultra hooked up to my network.
When I give it a command, the screen turns grey as expected, the title of whatever I asked for flashes and then it stays grey.
What could I be doing wrong?
I’ve been using the default cast delay. What would you recommend I change it to?
From the link above:
"The amount of delay needed is typically the time it takes from when the screen turns black after calling the service to when you see the show info on screen."
It also mentions how you can test the delay to make sure it’s working. Depending on the device, network speed, etc it could be anywhere between 0-10 seconds.
Is there a method for setting a universal cast delay? Like, if I want all cast devices to run on a 10 second delay?
Not at the moment, but that’s a good suggestion. I’ll try to get it in the next release.
Sorry for more questions and thank you for assisting me with this.
I am getting a new error now that I have set a cast delay

My config is this:
plex_assistant:
url: 'http://*****INTERNAL NETWORK IP****:32400'
token: !secret plex_token
default_cast: 'Living Room TV'
language: 'en'
tts_errors: true
cast_delay:
Living Room TV: 10
What could I be doing wrong?
Nothing, this error has been mentioned in this thread a few times and is also reported on the Github. I’ll hopefully have a fix up this weekend.
Hi all,
I like the look of this integration. I am trying to get it to work with the Rhasspy voice assistant. It looks like it should be easy enough.
Is there any example yaml code around? I’ve had a look through this thread and am still not sure what exactly i should be putting in the Action section - plain text command, JSON ?
Thanks
Hi @mayker
Is this maybe interesting?
