Note: The hook works correctly on my e1744 and e1812 controllers.

Hi @ShagoY,

thank you for reporting. The issue should be fixed now.

I was using an old name for the E1743 in the select option in both the Light and Media Player Hooks. A refactor accidentally unveiled the problem.

Please let me know if the issue is fixed. :)

Being fairly new to HA, could you tell me what is the best method to update a blueprint?

At the moment, I delete the blueprint/automation and recreate them.

[EPMatt]

Currently, to update a blueprint you can proceed as follows:

1. Delete the old blueprint;
2. Import the updated blueprint via the UI (Configuration->Blueprints->Import Blueprint);
3. Reload automations (Configuration->Server Controls->Reload automations or via the quick bar).

No need to delete automations, since as soon as you complete step 3 they get rebuilt with the updated blueprint. :)

It looks like in the future there will be a simpler way to update blueprints in HA, but I don't know at what point is the development of such feature.

Ok no error message and it's work :)

Thank !
