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)!
I have one Q. How do i use"Zidoo button key command list" i want to add a button to send the "Key.Back"
This is an example of using the Send Button Key service as a script. You can use the same "call Service:" action in a button tap action, or an automation. EDIT: I updated the readme https://github.com/wizmo2/zidoo-player/blob/main/key_commands.md for clarity
Is anyone using the HA integration with the latest RTD1619BPD players (z9xpro,z20 etc)? Don't have access to a unit and a user has reported a potential issue with a Z20. Right now, I'm thinking it is HA issue, but would be helpful if I knew if the API works on this platform.
Anything specific that I should test? Browsing not working and I dont see background image (I sued the top right control for that, see below picture) Left control shows background but playback controls are missing and pressing "pause" has no effect. //edit: Forget what I said. I had to update everything first, sorry! Card looks correct now: After pausing for some time the card shows the filename instead of Episode name and I have to press play twice before playback resumes:
Thanks for the feedback. The filename when paused thing was originally by design. May need to rethink
Finally got my Remote Two by unfolded circle so I’m going to properly test your integration with it over the weekend.
I looked at DIYing the original one (since I missed the kits) but never found the time. Would be interested in hearing your feedback on the TWO (to see if it justifies the price tag).
The remote feels absolutely great and I love the big display. Its certainly way sharper than my old Logitech remote but not "retina" like. Playback progress report on the remote itself is awesome! Having said that, the remote was super buggy to set up. Webinterface was disconnecting all the time, took ages to connect the dock to my wifi....
The playback time is displayed incorrectly, the progress bar is correct, though: Watching a 44 minute episode
Just read it on GitHub Awesome! I also have some strange play/pause behavior but will see if the new remote entity will change that. Feedback for that best here or via GitHub?
