<p>The <code class="highlighter-rouge">vlc</code> platform allows you to control <a href="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html">VLC media player</a>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>To add a VLC media player to your installation, add the following to your <code class="highlighter-rouge">configuration.yaml</code> file:</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="language-yaml highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code><span class="c1"># Example configuration.yaml entry</span>
|
||
<span class="s">media_player</span><span class="pi">:</span>
|
||
<span class="pi">-</span> <span class="s">platform</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">vlc</span>
|
||
</code></pre>
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
<p>Configuration variables:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strong>name</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): The name to use in the frontend.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>arguments</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Additional arguments to be passed to VLC.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>Only “music” media type is supported for now.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>This service will control a background VLC instance, therefore you cannot use this to control a VLC instance launched on your desktop, unlike the Kodi media player for example.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2><a class="title-link" name="full-configuration" href="#full-configuration"></a> Full configuration</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>A full configuration for VLC could llok like the one below:</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="language-yaml highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code><span class="c1"># Example configuration.yaml entry</span>
|
||
<span class="s">media_player</span><span class="pi">:</span>

<p>On macOS phython-vlc won’t find the VLC plugin directory unless you add this to the user’s <code class="highlighter-rouge">.bash_profile</code> that is running Home Assistant:</p>
