Panasonic Blu-Ray Player
panasonic_bluray
The Panasonic Blu-Ray Player integration allows you to control a Panasonic Blu-Ray player. Note that the device must be on the same subnet as Home Assistant; connections from a different subnet will return an error.
In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge
What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.
| Entity | Shows up as | Note |
|---|---|---|
media_player | Media player (as switches) | Only TVs and receivers get a TV tile; other players show as power and play switches; Needs its own HomeKit Bridge in accessory mode |
