Thank you for the blueprint. It was very helpful in my setup.

For those that looking for how to cycle scenes using the left and right button, i created a small script that jumps to the next scene and activate it.

You have to create an input_select helper containing all the entity IDs of the desired scenes.

alias: Next Scene
fields:
  scene_select:
    name: Scene Select
    description: Input Select entity to set the next scene.
    required: true
    selector:
      entity:
        domain: input_select
  cycle:
    name: Cycle
    description: If the option should cycle from the last to the first.
    default: true
    selector:
      boolean: null
sequence:
  - service: input_select.select_next
    data:
      cycle: "{{cycle}}"
    target:
      entity_id: "{{scene_select}}"
  - service: scene.turn_on
    target:
      entity_id: "{{states(scene_select)}}"
    metadata: {}
mode: queued
max: 10

First I tried to do it by activating the scene directly when the input_select changed using an automation, but that had multiple drawbacks:

  1. Need an additional automation for every scene input_select.
  2. Tight coupling of changing the input_select and activating the scene.
  3. Sometimes feels buggy. (Fast button presses not recognized etc.)

Hope that this is useful for you.
