The firetv platform allows you to control a [Amazon Fire TV](http://www.amazon.com/Amazon-DV83YW-Fire-TV/dp/B00U3FPN4U) (/stick).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The python-firetv Python 2.x module with its helper script that exposes a HTTP server to fetch state and perform actions is used.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Steps to configure your Amazon Fire TV stick with Home Assistant:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Turn on ADB Debugging on your Amazon Fire TV:
|
||||||
|
- From the main (Launcher) screen, select Settings.
|
||||||
|
- Select System > Developer Options.
|
||||||
|
- Select ADB Debugging.
|
||||||
|
- Find Amazon Fire TV device IP:
|
||||||
|
- From the main (Launcher) screen, select Settings.
|
||||||
|
- Select System > About > Network.
|
||||||
|
- `pip install firetv[firetv-server]` into a Python 2.x environment
|
||||||
|
- `firetv-server -d <fire tv device IP>:5555`, background the process
|
||||||
|
- Configure Home Assistant as follows:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To add FireTV to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
||||||
|
media_player:
|
||||||
|
platform: firetv
|
||||||
|
host: localhost:5556
|
||||||
|
device: livingroom-firetv
|
||||||
|
name: My Amazon Fire TV
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Configuration variables:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **host** *Optional*: Where `firetv-server` is running. Default is *localhost:5556*.
|
||||||
|
- **device** *Optional*: The device ID, default is *default*.
|
||||||
|
- **name** *Optional*: The friendly name of the device, default is 'Amazon Fire TV'.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p class='note warning'>
|
||||||
|
Note that python-firetv has support for multiple Amazon Fire TV devices. If you have more than one configured, be sure to specify the device id used. Run `firetv-server -h` and/or view the source for complete capabilities.
