Playing Media Files on Home Assistant (Zigbee 3.0)


Hi! I run an Escape room and we're looking to trigger media files (video/audio) to play on a computer screen when someone presses a button. I have Home Assistant Green using a Zigbee 3.0 protocol. I know this is relatively easy for an expert, but I cannot for the life of me figure it out. Basically, it should work like this. Player hits button (trigger, some ZigBee device). A specific media file plays when that button is pressed (the action). The media can come from my HA's cloud or my computer or anywhere. I don't care. I'm open to whatever solution you think makes the most sense. My hunch is that it'll just take some relatively advanced knowledge of YAML and just triggering files in my HA cloud, but you're the expert, so I'll trust your recommendation(s). Please start your bid with the phrase "Escape Room". Tryna weed out the job bid spammers ;). Thanks! -Kevin
