The `openhome` platform allows you to connect an [Openhome Compliant Renderer](http://openhome.org/) to Home Assistant such as a [Linn Products Ltd](https://www.linn.co.uk) HiFi streamer. It will allow you to control media playback, volume, source and see the current playing item.

### Example `configuration.yaml` entry

```yaml
discovery:
media_player:
  - platform: openhome
```

### Example local audio playback action

```yaml
action:
  - service: media_player.play_media
    target:
      entity_id: media_player.linn_bedroom
    data:
      media_content_id: "http://172.24.32.13/Doorbell.mp3"
      media_content_type: music
```

### Example web stream playback action
