Core: [Media Player] Select source loop

Created on 12 Mar 2018 · 29Comments · Source: home-assistant/core

HASSIO Host : 1.3
Supervisor : 0.96
Home Assistant release : 0.65.3

Component : media_player.webostv
_(First use of this component for me)_

Description of problem :
when I change sources,
tv goes from one source to another in a loop,
example:
when I'm on netflix, and I put HDMI1, the tv will go through:
Netflix, HDMI1, Netflix, HDMI1, Netflix, HDMI1, Netflix, HDMI1, ...
To finally stop, sometimes on HDMI1, sometimes on Netflix

Expected: Change source imediatelly

Config :

media_player:
  - platform: webostv
    host: 192.168.0.4
    name: TV LG

@OddBloke you seem to master this component

I see in the file "webostv.py" :

REQUIREMENTS = ['pylgtv==0.1.7']

Version 0.1.8 of pylgtv seems to include a correction of this kind of case,
Maybe just updating the version will fix the bug.

pylgtv 0.1.8

boced66 on 12 Mar 2018

I think you may have been looking at older commits as well; 0.1.8 only appears to include one minor change: https://github.com/TheRealLink/pylgtv/compare/0.1.7...0.1.8

Do you have any automation set up around your TV?

If you have any logs, those would be extremely helpful.

I have the same behaviour with snapcast sources since 0.65.x:
If I restart HASS and select the media-player in the UI, no source is selected. Then I can select a source exactly once. As soon as I select another source it starts to loop between both. It seems the the UI sends constantly alternating service calls until I close the state card for the media player. There is no automation or anything involved:

Thank you for the answer,
I have the logs at the level "Warning", and I have no message, when I do this manipulation,

And I have no automation at the moment

I made a recording of what HASS does,
The tv does the same thing,

Looks similar here. On the phone as well well as in the browser.

This is what the WS traffic looks like when the looping starts:

Same here with my onkyo receiver and the spotify component.
It's a new setup of HASS.
No automation at the moment just select source then looping.

sstinger on 13 Mar 2018

It sounds to me like the title of this issue should change to be more general.

OddBloke on 13 Mar 2018

Bug https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/issues/10830 might be related. Onkyo.

I have posted a video showing the issue in that bug:

Konstigt on 13 Mar 2018

Hello, same here, using webostv and HA v0.65.02.

It only happens when changing source through the web interface though. If I fire a "media_player.select_source" service, it works well, without looping.

stephanerosi on 14 Mar 2018

The same for me, If I fire a "media_player.select_source", it works.

But I need to pause my media before making the switch,
Is it possible to have the source change send the pause signal before changing?

boced66 on 15 Mar 2018

Onkyo mediaplayer: When you select the source, it will keep switching

Same problem, with snapcast.

happyleavesaoc on 15 Mar 2018

It's a problem in the media player component...

mizrachiran on 16 Mar 2018

It seems that this issue has not attracted attention.

kukudemajia on 16 Mar 2018

Same issue here.

0.65.5 of HA.

GilbyDettori on 16 Mar 2018

I have this problem as well 0.65.5

jslove on 19 Mar 2018

same issue with Sonos

deluxestyle on 19 Mar 2018

@kukudemajia
What do you mean by "Custom UI 20180216
0.63.2 is ok." ?

stephanerosi on 21 Mar 2018

Maybe it's a frontend issue : https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/issues/1001#thread-subscription-status

stephanerosi on 21 Mar 2018

@stephanerosi Sorry, the version before I upgraded is 0.63.2,it worked well.
But when I downgrade from 0.65.5 to 0.63.2, it doesn't work.

kukudemajia on 21 Mar 2018

Happening for me as well on my Onkyo using Safari on iPhone. HA 0.65.3

joe248 on 21 Mar 2018

fixed, close please

c727 on 21 Mar 2018

still not fixed in 0.65.6

deluxestyle on 21 Mar 2018

0.65.6 was released before the fix. It requires the frontend from 2018-02-10: https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/blob/0.65.6/homeassistant/components/frontend/__init__.py#L27
