About
Falcon Pi Player connects a Falcon Pi Player (FPP) to Home Assistant as a media player. It works locally and adds media player and light entities. The player shows the current sequence and playlist with cover art, and lists all playlists and sequences as sources. Playlists and sequences can be started and stopped, and sequences can be paused, resumed, or moved to the next or previous one. Volume can be set or stepped, and brightness control is available when the Brightness Control Plugin for FPP is installed. Setup happens in the interface, and Home Assistant can discover the player on the network.
