MEDIA_PLAYER.md

For this platform to work, we need a .json file containing all the necessary IR commands. Find your device's brand code here and add the number in the device_code field. The compoenent will download it to the correct folder. If your device is not working, you will need to learn your own codes and place the .json file in smartir/codes/media_player/ subfolders. Please note that the device_code field only accepts positive numbers. The .json extension is not required.

Configuration variables:

name (Optional): The name of the device
unique_id (Optional): An ID that uniquely identifies this device. If two devices have the same unique ID, Home Assistant will raise an exception.
device_code (Required): ...... (Accepts only positive numbers)
controller_data (Required): The data required for the controller to function. Enter the IP address of the Broadlink device (must be an already configured device), or the entity id of the Xiaomi IR controller, or the MQTT topic on which to send commands.
power_sensor (Optional): entity_id for a sensor that monitors whether your device is actually On or Off. This may be a power monitor sensor. (Accepts only on/off states)
source_names (Optional): Override the names of sources as displayed in HomeAssistant (see below)

Example (using broadlink controller):

smartir:

switch:
  - platform: broadlink
    host: 192.168.10.10
    mac: '00:00:00:00:00:00'
    
media_player:
  - platform: smartir
    name: Living room TV
    unique_id: living_room_tv
    device_code: 1000
    controller_data: 192.168.10.10
    power_sensor: binary_sensor.tv_power

Example (using xiaomi controller):

smartir:

remote:
  - platform: xiaomi_miio

    unique_id: living_room_tv
    device_code: 2000
    controller_data: remote.xiaomi_miio_192_168_10_10
    power_sensor: binary_sensor.tv_power

Example (using mqtt controller):

smartir:

media_player:
  - platform: smartir
    name: Living room TV
    unique_id: living_room_tv
    device_code: 3000
    controller_data: home-assistant/living-room-tv/command
    power_sensor: binary_sensor.tv_power

Example (using LOOKin controller):

smartir:

media_player:
  - platform: smartir
    name: Living room TV
    unique_id: living_room_tv
    device_code: 4000
    controller_data: 192.168.10.10
    power_sensor: binary_sensor.tv_power

Overriding Source Names

Source names in device files are usually set to the name that the media player uses. These often aren't very descriptive, so you can override these names in the configuration file. You can also remove a source by setting its name to null

media_player:
  - platform: smartir
    name: Living room TV
    unique_id: living_room_tv
    device_code: 1000
    controller_data: 192.168.10.10
    source_names:
      HDMI1: DVD Player
      HDMI2: Xbox
      VGA: null
