Hello Plex / Home Assistant community!

I used to post regularly with Plex related projects to Reddit but since leaving I figured I'd try sharing my latest project here instead

My latest project, in an effort to decouple my smarthome setup from Alexa, is to recreate the functionality provided by the Plex Alexa skill so I can play things to my various Plex clients with voice commands in Home Assistant (plus I assume like all things I enjoy Plex will eventually EOL this anyway)

I mostly made this for my own personal usage initially but decided to make it into a blueprint and share

I have a few other Plex/*arr related projects if you check out my Github

Hope others find value in this as well but its working nicely in my home setup
