Does this happen also in Chrome? Play button is grayed out when target entity is not available.

Similar to https://github.com/JurajNyiri/PlexMeetsHomeAssistant/issues/61, this will be unfortunately near impossible for me to debug if I cannot replicate it (even better, on PC). I will leave it open, maybe more people have similar issue and might come here and add more information, but until then I don't think I can do anything to fix it unfortunately.

Hi there,

I have this same issue on my Samsung A7 Tablet (running the HA Application), and on Chrome, the play button is "grey". It does however work on my Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra running the HA Application.

What is very strange though is that when i go into edit mode on the dashboard then the "play" button is not greyed out. I have a few screen shots below that show this, and maybe that helps you. image

The PMHA integration works great, however, it seems that when using it on an android phone with Chrome/Chromium or Raspberry Pi running Chrome, the play button on the content is grayed out, however if using this on a windows PC with Chrome, there are no issues with the Play button.
