nindtendo / homeassistant_gradual_volume_control Goto Github PK

Hi,

First of all I'd like to say "thank you" for this useful component! I had a workaround with several "volume_set" and "delay" commands in a sequence which I can ditch now in favour of this component.

Nevertheless I remarked that the component throws an exception when I try to apply grad_vol.set_volume to a media player in status "off" (since it does not hold an attribute volume_level I suppose)...

Would be nice if the component could catch this exception and just ignore media players w/o volume_level.

Cheers,
Tim

When I try to call service in Node-RED I get an API error.

debug log:
sent data : msg :
object
domain: "grad_vol"
service: "set_volume"
data: object
volume: 0.5
duration: 10
entity_id: "media_player.whole_house"

Is there a way to use "grad_vol" via Node-RED?
