I’m using the media_player.play_media
service to start the ESPN app on my Roku device and then play a specific team’s (Toronto Maple Leafs) stream. My service call looks like this:
service: media_player.play_media
data:
media_content_id: 34376
media_content_type: app
extra:
content_id: 05ad1ea0-3605-46c2-a5ee-6c96fdaede6f
media_type: live
target:
entity_id: media_player.roku
When this is triggered the ESPN app starts, loads for a few seconds, and then returns to the Roku home screen. Without including the extra: section, the app will start and stay on the ESPN home page.
Am I missing something in my call? Any help would be appreciated here!
