+## Playing media from a Media Source

+To play media from a media source via a service call, use the uri scheme `media-source://media_source/<media_dir>/<path>`.
+Default `media_dir`is `local`.
+
+Example:
+```yaml
+service: media_player.play_media
+data:
+  entity_id: media_player.living_room_tv
+  media_content_type: video/mp4
+  media_content_id: media-source://media_source/local/videos/favourites/Epic Sax Guy 10 Hours.mp4
+```
