Hi there,
I am using Volumio as player for Spotify, iTunes (via AirPlay) and local music.
I was surprisingly successful on integrate Volumio & Spotify to my home assistant installation.
What I’ve done:
1.
- platform: spotify
client_id: xxx
client_secret: xxx
aliases:
c6e56cf6b68c07041768b06e2f29a439e7724b0e: 'Volumio'
- platform: volumio
host: 192.168.0.88
input_select:
spotify_source:
name: 'Volumio'
options:
- Volumio
In Node-Red i added a call-service node with service play_playlist and this data (it’s my Discovery Weekly):
{
"media_content_id": "spotify:playlist:37i9dQZEVXcMxQ6GlVULvC",
"random_song": "true"
}
This works like a charme when I connect Volumio one time manually via the app.
My problem is that Volumio doesn’t stay visible for home assistant (or better the whole API).
I am using this Spotify plugin on Volumio because I don’t know any other:
I tried to switch from Multiuser to Single User in the plugin but that doesn’t help.
Do you have an idea?
Thank you very much!
