**This is an extremely early version of integration / card aimed mostly for experienced users and/or developers.**

- Reload browser, clear cache as usual
- Create a new Home Assistant tab, turn on panel mode
- Add a new card to it:

```
type: 'custom:plex-meets-homeassistant'
token: Plex token
ip: Plex IP address
port: Plex port
entity_id: Android TV media_player entity
libraryName: Plex library name that you wish to display
protocol: Optional - protocol to use for plex, defaults to http
maxCount: Optional - maximum number of items to display
```

If you are using Home Assistant via HTTPS, you need to specify port `https` for Plex and have Plex available on https connection.
