The `Volumio` platform allows you to control a [Volumio](http://volumio.org) media player from Home Assistant.
The preferred way to set up the Volumio platform is by enabling the [discovery component](/components/discovery/).
In case the discovery does not work, or you need specific configuration variables, you can add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
media_player:
- platform: volumio
host: homeaudio.local
port: 3000
```
Configuration variables:
- **name** (*Optional*): Name of the device
- **host** (*Required*): IP address or hostname of the device
- **port** (*Required*): Port number of Volumio service
