The `openhome` platform allows you to connect an [Openhome Compliant Renderer](https://www.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. Openhome devices should be discovered by using the [the discovery component](/components/discovery/), their device names are taken from the name of the room configured on the device.

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
discovery:
media_player:
  - platform: openhome
```
