Hello all,

After quite a bit of searching, I can't quite figure out how to have different cards show based on what input my AV receiver is set to.

All I know for sure is that this is not something the conditional card directly supports.

An idea that just came to mind while writing this is maybe using custom binary sensors based on entity attributes, but I also have no idea how to go about doing that.

What I currently have set up is a conditional card based on if certain media players are playing, but it isn't super reliable, and, as I add more media players, it's becoming exceptionally cumbersome to manage--and even less reliable.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Look at Visibility, and just create a card for every input, and only show whichever card corresponds to that input.

If you just want different entities based on input I would look into universal media player.
