HA Configuration Validation stuck after editing config about home-assistant-custom-components-linkplay

[xbavnu]

I see the following warning in the log:

Logger: homeassistant.components.media_player
Source: helpers/entity_platform.py:719
Integration: Media player (documentation, issues)
First occurred: 8:41:18 PM (1 occurrences)
Last logged: 8:41:18 PM

Updating linkplay media_player took longer than the scheduled update interval 0:00:10

---

edit:

okay I think I found it. I already added the speaker with the same name before I installed linkplay. I later changed the name for the linkplay speaker in the config again, but it still shows up under the previous name.

Even though I still don't really know what the problem was, thank you very much for the quick responses :D

What's the exact message?

You likely have an indentation problem:

media_player:
  - platform: linkplay
    host: 192.168.178.52
    name: pc speaker

Thank you for quick the response.
I don't get any error messages. After pressing "check configuration" I only the see a spnning symbol as if it is loading something. But afterwards nothing happens. I even waited for several minutes. As soon as I refresh the page everything is back to normal. I also can not find any errors in the config log.

About the indentations, I copied the lines directly from the example configuration as well as your example above. I still can not validate the configuration.

Check your home assistant logfile, there should be written what's the cause.

I could not find any errors or warnings in the log file. Meanwhile I installed the HA update and restarted HA a few times - now this problem seems to have disappeared. I can validate the configuration now.

But I have to do a lot more research on home assistant :D
I was expecting to see a new entity or device that I could add. But I can not see the speaker anywhere.

This is what my config looks like now:

# Linkplay configuration for Arylic Speakers
media_player:
    - platform: linkplay
      host: 192.168.178.52
      name: Overnight Sensations
      volume_step: 5
      multiroom_wifidirect: False
      sources: 
        {
          'wifi': 'WiFi',
          'line-in': 'PC Audio', 
          'bluetooth': 'Bluetooth',
          'udisk': 'USB stick',
        }

If for any reason adding the entity fails, the error is logged in the log.
If you don't see any error in the log, you likely either don't have the component properly installed, or the entity is there but you just don't find it.
