and how or do i need to add the
Asi I'm stuck at this time with Player Card

"EMBY PLAYERS TAB" is just the YAML code that makes up my Emby Tab, you do not need to worry about this if you are simply using the Dashboard UI to customize yours. I prefer to do all mine manually hence why I am using the code, I do not use the interface that I documented for you above.

Have you been able to create yourself a tab with Emby media players using the Mini Media Player custom card which gives you volume control now?

No prob. That's it if you are happy with the result. Is there anything else missing?

For what ever reason i can't get the status of the Media to play and the play / pause to work
its only play and I'v look at the control says play / pause

No you cannot rename that otherwise you will break the integration

The steps we just went through will show only the players that you add to that tab, and will show any status that they have. Not just "Playing".

Any player that you do not add will not show up there.

As I said, I wanted to make sure we covered the basics first and it looks like you got that bit done.

If you want to only see players that are "active" and playing something, you will need to use another custom card named "Auto-Entities" which you can also find in HACS

This time, add a card type using "Custom: Auto-Entities"

And configure that card with the following options:

This will then only show players with the state of "playing" on that card

EDIT: you might want to also add a filter for "state = paused" otherwise you might lose control of that entity if you pause from there, not important if you don't care to control devices from HA.

If you are using some other client other than Emby then I cannot comment on that, this forum is just for Emby related clients.

Hello!

Does anyone have an idea how to make the USER NAME appear in the Home Assistant mini player?

The USER NAME is in: attribute: app_name
