album_art doesn't exist-is it actually entity_picture_tempate ?

[Seperis]

I had some time and was checking all your templates. album_art is the only one (I think) that I can't make work. I went to HA's media_player component and the template component and looked also at the sonos integration and a couple of others; album_art doesn't show as a possibility anywhere, but entity_picture_template does. I'm going to guess they're synonymous; when I check my sonos, it looks like the album art appears under entity_picture in attributes.

You have both in the media_player_template under Schema, but entity_picture_template doesn't appear just above it in the list of your templates starting on line 66. I didn't want to change it without your permission, since I could be wrong or I'm making a mistake in trying to get it display.

ETA: or is album art equal to media_image_url? Sonos seemed to be using entity when music plays, but that doesn't mean it's universal.

Hey it's something strange how to do this. It depends if the url is publicly accessible or not. If you look at the following code https://github.com/home-assistant/core/blob/dev/homeassistant/components/media_player/init.py#L791 you see that if it's publicly accessible it takes the url otherwise it takes local. I only implemented the public url

Oh, that's a relief; I was worried I somehow managed to do it wrong when it wouldn't pick anything up. Thank you!

I'm also having trouble getting the album art working.

This is my code

    Thanks for the component!
