Currently the media_player entity with device class "set_top_box" does support channel switching with "channel up/down". This might work for some use cases but not for all. It would be great if there would be a logic that allows to define direct channel switching. Suggestion:
attribute: channel_list
format: Array
example:
["channel_id1", "channel_id2", "channel_id3"]
In the web configurator there should be a command named "channel" allowing to select one of the channels in the channel_list attribute.
I realized that it makes no sense to add another attribute as we already have the "source_list" feature. I will close this ticket so it does not add additional work to your schedule.
Is there an existing issue for this?
