Ok so I added the Islamic month sensor. I wasn’t sure what to put for the value so I just added “none” and the automation saved successfully. Will see now if it plays at Isha time.
I tried to run actions and nothing played but I noticed that it changed volume of my echo to zero. Is that expected?
Thanks
@Aaliankhan. Could please explain what to put in the Islamic month sensor value like in the pictures:
Jazaka Allah Khayran brother!
I can’t play anything (even with a single action automation for test ) on any media player even the TVs…what am I missing
how did you add the volume?
There is a change volume in one of the options.
I used to have the volume option since I imported the latest version, I don’t see it anymore
I’m on 2024.3.1
me too also I can not play any media at all (not related to the blueprint )
Interesting, it seems like an issue with media playback itself. @thedamn316 @aelsharawi Can you guys share some logs?

It seems like the blueprint is missing the entity IDs to play. Or the entity IDs to pause.
Can you share the trace of the automation?
FYI, I am running same version with it working.

Thanks
It seems that it is getting stuck when trying to pause the media player because there is no device selected. Before it used to just log a warning when no device was selected but now it seems to completly error out.
Can you try to select one of your media players in the pause option to confirm thats the issue. I will try my best to fix it IA

and what about media players not playing on my HA, is this a problem too? if it is where I start to debug it?
Fajr adhan wont play at all. I guess it is triggering at the wrong time and it’s skipping it due to that.
Any fix?
Do you have the play fajr toggle set to on?
