Home Assistant integration for jriver

<< < (4/29) > >>

I just installed the new version, at first it failed to setup, but then I realized my JRiver VM was still asleep. Once I booted it up, it worked great. The browse seemed to work well right away too.

Have you noticed that the coverart doesn't pull through to the player? This is what I see in the attributes of my JRiver media_player instance:


--- Code: ---supported_features: 456639
friendly_name: serv01b - House Speakers (dlna)
volume_level: 1
is_volume_muted: false
media_content_id: 1020301
media_content_type: music
media_title: El Camino
media_artist: Amos Lee
media_album_name: Mission Bell
media_album_artist: Amos Lee
entity_picture_local: /api/media_player_proxy/media_player.serv01b_house_speakers_dlna?token=<redacted>&cache=b174ae145172cebc
zone_name: House Speakers (dlna)
entity_picture: http://192.168.3.202:52199/MCWS/v1/File/GetImage?File=1020301
media_duration: 242
media_position: 57

--- End code ---

But when I look at the actual media_player, there's no image. I'm outputting to a DLNA zone, which also has a media_player instance in my HA and I see this when I look at that one:


--- Code: ---volume_level: 1
is_volume_muted: false
media_content_id: http://192.168.3.202:52100/Music/F1020301.wav
media_duration: 242
media_position: 3
media_position_updated_at: 2024-01-28T16:41:03.239397+00:00
media_track: 1
shuffle: false
repeat: off
friendly_name: Kitchen Speakers - DLNA
supported_features: 397839
media_content_type: music
media_title: El Camino
media_artist: Amos Lee
media_album_name: Mission Bell
entity_picture: /api/media_player_proxy/media_player.kitchen_speakers_dlna?token=<redacted>&cache=17333a371a604331
--- End code ---

The quality of the picture on the DLNA one is particular poor, but at least it's there. I wrote an automation on track change to get the picture from entity_picture and place it somewhere that my tablet will pick it up, but it's 5 seconds or so delayed.

mattkhan:
thanks for noticing, I'd forgotten to add the token to the image url. It should be fixed in 0.1.2 but lmk if any problems

mattkhan:
another release to workaround https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,138016.0.html (only applies if you have multiple zones and rely on zoneswitch)

bob:
I can't get the integration going with HACS. Not sure where the issue is. Installed HACS via the instructions.
Added the integration repo though I can't tell if it sticks.
When I try to open the integration I get an error.

The first few things with HA are confusing, much like JRiver :)

I'm a bit confused where you're stuck and it's been a long time since I setup HACS, so my memory of all the steps might be rusty. Do you have HACS showing in your sidebar on the left? If not, then step 1 is to get that working correctly. Is this the page you mentioned you followed? https://hacs.xyz/docs/configuration/basic/

When you add a HACS integration, you add the repo in HACS, reboot, then you install the integration in the core HA integration page.

If you do have HACS showing in the sidebar and you're stuck with the JRiver integration, if you click on HACS on the left, you should then see a choice of integrations/ frontend/ add-ons. Under Integrations, you should see any repos that you've added (HACS.png attachment). Every time you load this page, it'll show a bunch of new things, I always hit dismiss to see what I have instead of what's new. If you've just installed the JRiver integration, HACS will give you some red banner that says you need to reboot. Once you've done that, then you should be able to add the intrgration using the main HA integration page (Settings > Devices & Services > Add Integration > JRiver).
