Requirements

This card requires a specific sensor that gets the data from Kodi. The sensor is provided by the custom component Kodi Media Sensors. Keep this integration up to date to avoid strange behaviour of your card.

Features

The card will let you track the playlist of kodi. You can perform some actions directly from the card like removing an item from the playlist or play a specific entry in the playlist.

Installation

  1. Install the custom component Kodi Media Sensors.
  2. Install the card using HACS

Manual installation is of course possible, but not explained here as there are plenty of tutorials.

Card options

Name Type Default Since Description
type string required 1.0.0 custom:kodi-playlist-card
entity string required 1.0.0 sensor.kodi_playlist
title string optional 1.0.0 The title of the card
show_thumbnail boolean false 1.1.2 Set to true if you want to show the thumbnails coming from kodi. Attention you can get problems when mixing http and https content; if so, leave it to false.
show_thumbnail_overlay boolean true 3.1 When true, adds an lightgrey overlay above the thumbnail; this might be useful to see better the play icon displayed above the thumbnail.
show_thumbnail_border boolean false 3.1 When true, adds a 1px border around the thumbnails.
show_line_separator boolean true 3.3 When true, adds a 1 px border under each item of the playlist.
hide_last_line_separator boolean false 4.0 When true, the last line separator is hidden to avoid a last line (if show_line_separator is false).
outline_color string optional
default: white
3.1 This option is to use in combination with other properties (show_thumbnail_border and show_line_separator). The color can be a string (ex: 'white', 'red', 'green', ... ), rgb format (ex: 'rgb(10, 12, 250)') or hexa format (ex: '#EE22FF').
items_container_scrollable boolean false 4.1 Allows to add a scroll bar in order to enhance the navigation in case of long playlists
items_container_height string optional
default: 300px
4.1 Sets the height of the playlist when it's limited by the property items_container_scrollable
show_version boolean false 4.4 Shows the version of the card directly on the card. This is mainly useful for develpment purposes.

No need to pass the entity of the Kodi player as it is embedded in the data of the sensor.
