Got a Squeezebox Radio here. Works well although not using it a lot. It is in the same subnet as HA. No other software related to Squeezebox or LMS is running atm. Followed the instructions on SlimProto (Squeezebox players) - Home Assistant. Nothing… Restarted HA. Nothing.
Added
media_player:
media_source:
Restarted. Nothing. No Squeezebox as output on the media-browser page.
Nothing in the logs that run on warn level.
Did I miss something?
Go to Settings > Devices & Services then manually add a Slim Proto (Squeezbox Players) integration.
Thanks, yes that is what I did before.
Apparently on the Logitech device you have to open “Remote Music Library”. Then it can be controlled. At least, that works for Docker Hub. Still cannot get the HA integration working even though the Logitech device is being found now.
Hmm wait…does this integration use port 9000 like that Docker image does by default…the Portainer port?
Stopped Portainer. Also does not work. The Logitech device does not go further than “Connecting to [HA-servername]”
Maybe there is another port conflict. Need to know the ports this integration uses. Cannot find them in source.
Port scan on a quick HA container gives 3483, 9090, 9091. There should be no conflict, not even with Portainer.
same. following.
The setup fails for me with the following error:

OSError: [Errno 98] error while attempting to bind on address ('0.0.0.0', 9091): address in use
Note that before a reboot the port it attempted to bind was 3483, so I have no clue what it is trying to do. Should it be binding to any port at all?
[edit] Found the reason, there’s a server called slimserver started, that wants to use ports 3483, 9090 and 9091. Seems to be hardcoded at the moment. Opened an issue at: Fails on setup because port is in use · Issue #39 · home-assistant-libs/aioslimproto · GitHub
Just came across this integration and thought I might get some renewed life out of two old Squeezebox Radios I have lying around. But I too cannot get it to work.
Similar results…nothing when adding the integration. I can add the IP to HA manually in the Squeezebox settings and then the entity appears in HA, but Squeezebox spins for a while and fails to connect. And the entity doesn’t appear to do anything…state, volume, nothing.
Also not finding much in the way of examples etc through internet searches.
I use Docker Container, does it need to have those ports imported (3483, 9090 and 9091)?
Edit: Forgot my container is using the host networking, so that shouldn’t be it in my case…
Anyone had any luck at all?
I realized I forgot to check the log, but just noticed it’s getting spammed with these messages:

Hi!
I just took the time to check out this integration. After adding the integration I was able to connect the player (Sqeezebox Radio, Firmware: 7.7.3-r16676) to HA by using its IP (on the Radio, Settings → Advanced → Networks → Remote Library).
However, I am unable to play any media. I am testing with service “service: media_player.play_media” and only getting “Unsupported Content Type” errors (in log, depending on content):
aioslimproto.errors.UnsupportedContentType: Player does not support content type: audio/mpegaioslimproto.errors.UnsupportedContentType: Player does not support content type: audio/mp3Also, it seems either the integration or my device wont support HTTPS streams:
WARNING (MainThread) [aioslimproto.client] HTTPS stream requested but player does not support HTTPS, trying HTTP instead but playback may fail.
In an attempt to play some notifications in the house with existing equipment, I wanted to use some SB devices.
Yesterday I tried my SB Radio with no luck, and today the same result with the good old SB Classic.
My attempts consist of:
I see the client connect in HA, as the integration does show the client as a device with one entity, however I cannot get it to play anything.
Both client devices cannot connect to anything, and the docker logs show different errors, alike the ones in this thread:

Not sure if using the SB’s in HA are going to be a succes ?
It would be great to get use out of them without running the whole LMS. But yeah, I pretty much gave up.
