Just checked out the lights and they are instant now with the button presses. Thanks again for your help!
Thanks for your Job ! I'm stuck on an automation between the zidoo and my Hue lighting. Just as I created an automation to turn off the lighting when the film starts, and one to turn the lighting on to 50% when the film is paused, I would like to have an automation that resets the lighting to 100% when I stop playing a film and I return to the zidoo menus. I tried with the "Z1000 Pro becomes inactive" trigger (idle function?), it works, but... when I turn on the zidoo it automatically turns on the lighting, and I'm just trying to turn the lighting back on when I stop playing the film. Any suggestion ? if I manually modify the automation by putting "stop reading" or else, it refuses to validate...
try this for the lights turning off when the film starts (create new automation, click dots in top right, edit in yaml and then paste this in and modify entity names as needed); Code: description: "zidoo lights off when playback starts" mode: single trigger: - platform: state entity_id: - media_player.z9x to: playing condition: [] action: - service: light.turn_off data: {} target: entity_id: light.bedlightstrip_light and then try this for paused (i would use a scene but you can probably do it with toggle. you just gotta make the scene in the hue app and then it should detect in home assistant); Code: description: "zidoo lights on when paused" mode: single trigger: - platform: state entity_id: - media_player.z9x to: paused condition: [] action: - service: hue.activate_scene data: {} target: entity_id: scene.bedroom_concentrate and then maybe try this for going from playback back to the menu screen to activate another scene; Code: description: "zidoo lights on when exiting playback" mode: single trigger: - platform: state entity_id: - media_player.z9x to: idle from: playing condition: [] action: - service: hue.activate_scene data: {} target: entity_id: scene.bedroom_concentrate
Look, this is my actually automation : Code: platform: device device_id: 494522191a6495720e971bca5bd7b6e2 domain: media_player entity_id: 91e7cfdd51b078dcd3dbc9d5dc155e49 type: playing for: hours: 0 minutes: 0 seconds: 3 type: turn_off device_id: 25e4c75d6ce2c02899acd028256a37db entity_id: eb3e41b9caab2fab7346616da4222094 domain: light type: turn_off device_id: bc8bdfc3dab3dce69fdc27711571e10a entity_id: 97b4e344e81cb7a7fbb07183695a05de domain: light Code: platform: device device_id: 494522191a6495720e971bca5bd7b6e2 domain: media_player entity_id: 91e7cfdd51b078dcd3dbc9d5dc155e49 type: paused type: turn_on device_id: 25e4c75d6ce2c02899acd028256a37db entity_id: eb3e41b9caab2fab7346616da4222094 domain: light brightness_pct: 50 type: turn_on device_id: bc8bdfc3dab3dce69fdc27711571e10a entity_id: 97b4e344e81cb7a7fbb07183695a05de domain: light brightness_pct: 50 Code: platform: device device_id: 494522191a6495720e971bca5bd7b6e2 domain: media_player entity_id: 91e7cfdd51b078dcd3dbc9d5dc155e49 type: idle type: turn_on device_id: 25e4c75d6ce2c02899acd028256a37db entity_id: eb3e41b9caab2fab7346616da4222094 domain: light brightness_pct: 100 type: turn_on device_id: bc8bdfc3dab3dce69fdc27711571e10a entity_id: 97b4e344e81cb7a7fbb07183695a05de domain: light brightness_pct: 100 The pb is that in idle mode, lights up when i start the zidoo, and not only when I stop playing the film... I will try with your code : to: idle from: playing
Hello I tested this : Code: alias: Ciné Light On description: Zidoo allume éclairage lorsque lecture stoppée trigger: - platform: state entity_id: - media_player.z1000_pro to: idle from: playing condition: [] action: - type: turn_on device_id: 25e4c75d6ce2c02899acd028256a37db entity_id: eb3e41b9caab2fab7346616da4222094 domain: light brightness_pct: 100 - type: turn_on device_id: bc8bdfc3dab3dce69fdc27711571e10a entity_id: 97b4e344e81cb7a7fbb07183695a05de domain: light brightness_pct: 100 mode: single it doesn't work. Thks !
Check to see what's happening in the HA Developer Tools/State menu. The standard states are "playing', "paused" and "idle" when playing Movies. NOTE: Try to avoid using Music Player. If it has been started, the HA media player state will fall back to the separate music player state. Zidoo allows this to run in the background, and will show "paused" unless you actually empty the music queue. You can empty the queue with the HA service `media-player:media_stop` service , but you'll have to get creative with that (and possible the media_content_type attribute)!
