Select source does not work after boot
TheZoker opened this issue · 5 comments
The media_player.select_source on my Fire TV does only work after I opened any application. So right after starting the device, this does not have any affect. When I start netflix for example, I can then also start spotify and all other applications.
I'm not sure of this is a issue of the library or is a bug on the Fire TV itself.
Same applies when the device is in Idle mode (screensaver on the Fire TV).
Maybe someone can test this and we can narrow it down.
Home Assistant might not allow the media_player.select_source service to be executed when the state is idle. And I'm not sure what you mean about it only working after you've opened an application. I haven't experienced that myself.
Also, when using the Home Assistant component, it's often easier to debug things when using the androidtv.adb_command service rather than HA's services.
I mean that right after the start it does not work. When I open an app (select it with the remote) then it works.
What would be the correct command to start an app with androidtv.adb_command?
Any update? The command that will be sent is monkey -p android.intent.category.LAUNCHER -c com.netflix.ninja 1; echo $?
I want to test this on multiple fire TV devices first and let you know about my findings.
Thanks for the full command
