Bluesound

The bluesound platform allows you to control your Bluesound HiFi wireless speakers and audio components from Home Assistant.

If you want to automatically discover new devices, just make sure you have discovery: in your configuration.yaml file. To manually add a Bluesound device to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml
media_player:
  - platform: bluesound
    hosts:
      - host: 192.168.1.100

Configuration variables:

• hosts (Optional): List with your bluesound devices
  • host (Required): IP-address or hostname of the player
  • name (Optional): The name of the device used in the frontend
  • port (Optional): Port of communication to the device (default: 11000)
