I don't have any familiarity with the following, just know a friend was recently evaluating it https://github.com/fondberg/spotcast

I had come across this last night in my searches.

The Spotify setup info makes it seem like I just need to modify some yaml somewhere but I'm super new to HA and probably don't know where to do that

#

This setup I'm referring to is this
https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/spotify/

service: media_player.select_source
entity_id: media_player.spotify
data:
  source: "Denon AVR-X2000"```

#

If spotcast is truly the way, I'll give it a try

Sorry, I don't know offhand what is better, but I've got a spotify account and will give this a try real quick

#

It isn't super clear where that bit of yaml should go, but sometimes the default assumption is that it goes in the configuration.yaml -- if you're not familiar with this, go to Settings > Add-Ons > install File Editor

Ah fine editor may be the winning key here. I installed the ssh add on and poked around but couldn't find a file to modify

I'll try this!

Another option is the Samba add-on to mount the HA drive / config area to your computer

Are the config files hidden when using the ssh add on?

#

mmm shouldn't be, what does pwd output? I see now that you might need to sudo su as the config goodies are at /root/config

#

seems i'm running home assistant core, does that matter?

#

so sudo su doesn't work

#

But I am logged in as root

Oh ok, so there should be goodies in cd /root/config such as configuration.yaml
