Home Assistant must be on the same network as the devices for uPnP discovery to work. If running Home Assistant in a Docker container use switch --net=host to put it on the host’s network.

There is currently a known issue with running this component on a 64-bit version of Python and Windows.

If you are on Windows and you’re using Python 3.5, download the Netifaces dependency.

If you see Not initializing discovery because could not install dependency netdisco==0.6.1 in the logs, you will need to install the python3-dev or python3-devel package on your system manually (eg. sudo apt-get install python3-dev or sudo dnf -y install python3-devel). On the next restart of home-assistant, discovery should work. If you still get an error, check if you have a compiler (gcc) available on your system.

If you are developing a new platform, please read how to make your platform discoverable for further details.
