entity_picture contains invalid URL if source is YT

[Switch123456789]

If I play music from Youtube, home assistant can't show the cover art because the entity_picture-value leads to a non existing file. Apologies if this is an issue with mopidy and not the integration.

Hello @Switch123456789

Mopidy is an audio media player, not a video media player, so it would make sense not showing any video playback.

Will investigate a bit more

Hi @bushvin, thank you for investigating! I only refer to the cover-art/thumbnail (not video-playback of any kind). On Iris, I can see it and the file is accessible but the entity_picture-attribute of the media_player-entity refers to some very different URL that leads to nowhere. If I play local files everything works as it should.

Let me know if you want more information or if I can assist in any other way. =)

Can you please tell me which Mopidy Extension you use for youtube? and the version installed? The youtube extension entry in your mopidy.conf would be handy as well.

Sure! mopidy 3.4.1-1 Mopidy-YouTube 3.7 yt-dlp 2023.7.6

Hey @Switch123456789

I found the origin of the issue. Should be solved with #39

Thanks for your patience!
