Player Provider Poll #2

[OzGav]

Two years have passed since the last poll. In that time player providers for Bluesound, MusicCast, and the Web Browser/Companion App have been added.

HEOS is known to be the most requested player provider. Hopefully that will happen soon so that is not included in this poll.

Also not included is LINKPLAY as that is high on the project's priority list already.

The list below is taken from existing requests in these discussions but there are about 80 integrations in HA tagged with media player so if you want to suggest another then put it in the comments but before you do check if someone else has already asked for it and if so just upvote that comment.

If you would like to discuss these options in more detail then here are the threads.

MPD https://github.com/orgs/music-assistant/discussions/1170
MatterCast https://github.com/orgs/music-assistant/discussions/2342
ESP32 Based Players
Plex Player https://github.com/orgs/music-assistant/discussions/2227
Roku https://github.com/orgs/music-assistant/discussions/430
Samsung Multiroom
Kodi

Out of interest these three were mentioned in the last poll but didn't garner many votes.
Bose Soundtouch
Xiaomi
Unifi PowerAmp

Thanks @OzGav. I recently purchased two Unifi PowerAmps and I would like to add my vote for this device to be supported please. The PowerAmp itself supports airplay2 and spotify connect, but unfortunately these don't work with Music Assistant - unless I'm missing something?
