PS5-MQTT: Control PlayStation 5 devices using MQTT

FunkeyFlo · December 21, 2022, 4:54pm

The docs you linked are for Hass os. Not for docker.

Great addon, easy setup! I’ve been playing around with the mushroom template card but I noticed that on the HA app, the title image of the game is broken ONLY FOR PS4 GAMES… It looks like PS4 title images are passed with http:// and ps5 games with https://. I tried replacing http with https in the template but that didn’t help. The browser has no issues, I think Chrome automatically makes it HTTPS when it thinks it needs it.

Has anyone else encountered this issue, or any pointers as to how I could debug it?

EDIT: it DID work, however my mushroom template button was set to look directly at the title_image attribute of the ps5 state, not the template I added with the replacement. So for anyone who does have this issue, simply replace http: with https: in the title image.

I have this addon configured and I can see my PS5 in the HA developer tools. When I try to turn on/off my ps5 using the entity switch.ps5-570 the addon logs show an authentication error.

@ha:ps5:mqtt MQTT Message received ps5-mqtt/70662ABA9B34/set/power
2022-12-26T14:27:53.120Z @ha:ps5:error Error: Not authenticated

How can it receive data at all if its throwing this error?

I’m guessing you skipped step 6.

How can it receive data at all if its throwing this error?

Checking console power mode doesn’t require authentication. Toggling power does.

Hi,
I’ve installed HA OS and I’ve added the add-on for this but doesn’t work. Always when I boot the add-on gives this error:

[13:31:04] ERROR: Got unexpected response from the API: Service not enabled

I just followed the readme for the docker version on github, but can’t seem to get it to start. The error I get is simply:

Starting PS5-MQTT...
2023-01-05T16:47:14.697Z @ha:ps5:error Received invalid options: "{
  "mqtt": {},
  "device_check_interval": 5000,

  "include_ps4_devices": false,
  "psn_accounts": [],
  "account_check_interval": 5000,
  "credentialsStoragePath": "/config/credentials.json",
  "frontendPort": "8645",
}

I tried before with a ‘full’ config copied from github (That one contains a few mistakes in the hints for the MQTT server btw), but that also doesn’t work. It doesn’t really give me any hint what the invalid options are (and I think they are all on the default…).

Im trying to install the docker version, but Im getting the following error.

Starting PS5-MQTT...

}

I just copied and pasted the example options.json with changed ip, name and npsso.

Are there anything else that I need to add?

Edit: Added my docker run command.

sudo docker run \
 -v /home/melotron/docker/ps5-mqtt/config:/config \
 --name PS5-MQTT \
 --net=host \
 -e TZ=Europe/Stockholm \
 -e CONFIG_PATH=/config/options.json \
 -e DEBUG=@ha:ps5:* \
 --entrypoint /config/run.sh \
 ghcr.io/funkeyflo/ps5-mqtt/i386:edge

Some how I like to start my dockers with docker run and store everything that’s needed in documentations and extra files in a folder on my github.

FunkeyFlo · January 5, 2023, 7:19pm

Mqtt info seems to be incomplete, you’re not specifying a user and a port.

Melotron · January 5, 2023, 7:58pm

I only have user and also anonymous enabled, so it should work with that config.
z2m can connect to mosquitto, without any username and password.

Ive also tried to start without any user and its giving the same error.

Here are my options.json

{
  "mqtt": {
      "host": "192.168.1.106",
      "port": "1883",
      "user": "mosquitto",
  },

  "device_check_interval": 5000,
  "device_discovery_interval": 60000,

  "include_ps4_devices": false,

  "psn_accounts": [
    {
      "username": "--",
      "npsso":"--"
    }
  ],

  "account_check_interval": 5000,

  "credentialsStoragePath": "/config/credentials.json",
  "frontendPort": "8645",
}

FunkeyFlo · January 5, 2023, 10:14pm

It’s also saying the config you provided is invalid json. Trailing comma’s are not allowed.

sophof · January 6, 2023, 11:39am

Thanks, this seems to have also been the issue for me.

Just to be clear, we both got this (I assume) from the readme on the website, so the example should really be adjusted. It also contains errors in the hints for the mqtt server which probably not everyone will notice:

"mqtt": {
      "host": "192.168.0.132",
      "pass": "1883",
      "port": "mqttuser",
      "user": "mqttpassword"
  },

It should be:

"mqtt": {
      "host": "192.168.0.132",
      "port": "1883",
      "user": "mqttuser",
      "pass": "mqttpassword"
  },

FunkeyFlo · January 6, 2023, 2:09pm

Correct; just updated the readme.

Melotron · January 6, 2023, 4:17pm

Thanks, I found another trailing comma from the example. Now its up and running for me.

"frontendPort": "8645",

Was the last one that stoped the script as sophof pointed out that it was more trailing commas in the example.

Thanks for the docker

Hello,

Thank you very much for developing this integration. I have a problem and I have read what was commented in this thread but I still cannot solve it.
I have PS5-MQTT installed on HAOS, correctly configured MQTT detects POWER and Activity.

Power switch not working (when PS5 is off) and Activity always shows Idle or Unavailable (when PS5 is off).

I have added my optional Playstation account in the settings, it does not show any error regarding the account but it always shows the Idle status.

mqtt: {}
logger: "@ha:ps5:*"
device_check_interval: 5000
device_discovery_interval: 60000
account_check_interval: 5000
include_ps4_devices: false
psn_accounts:
  - username: username_
    npsso: "!secret my_npsso"

My username has ‘_’ symbol.

I have this message in log =>

2023-01-07T10:44:03.480Z @ha:ps5:error SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input

Power switch not working (when PS5 is off)

Have you performed the necessary authentication through the web-ui for each device?
When you say “off” do you mean standby? The PS5 can only be turned on from standby.

Activity always shows Idle or Unavailable (when PS5 is off).

Check your account privacy settings. I think activity needs to be public (has been discussed before in this thread/the associated discord server).

FunkeyFlo · January 8, 2023, 7:33am

@djvicio from the like on my previous reaction I’m guessing one of those suggestions fixed your problem.

It would be great if you could let us know which one, so others might benefit from it as well.

djvicio · January 8, 2023, 10:18am

It was a reaction to quickly thank you for your answer. I didn’t have time to reply.

It was my mistake, I forgot that it works on the remote game protocol.
This part is correct and I successfully performed authentication through the web-ui.

I read about the privacy issue and changed the settings, but I don’t know if I did it correctly.

Thanks again

Benob777 · January 18, 2023, 3:31pm

Hi there,
can anybody provide information on how to set this add-on up in a Home Assistant venv installation?
Thanks in advance!

FunkeyFlo · January 18, 2023, 4:55pm

What’s Home Assistant “vent”?

Benob777 · January 18, 2023, 5:09pm

I’m sorry for the typo. I meant venv as in virtual environment (Home Assistant Core installation).
