Hi,
maybe I missed something, but I cannot find any option to program the slider.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!
The slider is currently locked to volume control of media player entites/widgets in activites. But more configuration options are planned according to Marton/UC (Discord)
OK, but how can I define it? If I swipe the slider, nothing happens.
Have you added a media player widget to your activity that supports volume control?
If I try to do so, in the pop-up window is nothing to select. Is there something to be defined in advance?
Have you added a media player entity to your activity? By default they have a music note icon.
I have clicked now through all of the menus in the main activities section, in the activity where I want to use the slider und also in the entities section. I’m sorry, but I cannot find the media player entity nowhere. Only in the filter list, but that doesn’t help, if the list is empty.

Would you be so kind an tell me where exactly I need to add it? Sorry, if I’m al little bit obtusely.
Are you using entites from integrations in your activity or just infrared and Bluetooth remote entites? Almost all of integrations expose a media player that you can add to an activity with the + icon on the right side in the settings tab of the activity.
Up to now, I have only started with one activity and this uses just IR. So first I have to understand what an integration is. Is this specific to a device? Where do I get this from or how can I create it? My AV-Receiver where I want to control the volume with the slider is a Yamaha RX-A2A.
Integrations are working via network control. In most cases each device needs a specific integration. If you have the choice you should prefer integrations as they work bi-directional and can retrieve infos from the device like volume/power/sound mode state or media playback infos and cover art and show them on the remote.
There is a Yamaha AVR integration (GitHub - JackJPowell/uc-intg-yamaha-avr: Yamaha AVR Integration for Unfolded Circle Remotes) but it’s not fully tested yet and the author has not yet published any infos about it on Discord where developers usally create a thread. Once it’s fully tested it will probably posted in the community projects channel on Discord (http://unfolded.chat) or on the official supported devices site (Supported devices)
I see. So this means, an integration works a little bit like an app on a smartphone but “installed” on the remote. The commands are transferred via Wi-Fi.
I would like to try the integration from GitHub. Is this a risk? I assume not, because of it doesn’t work, I can just remove to, right?
Thanks a lot for your support!
I would contact the developer. Maybe he needs additional testers. He’s mostly active on Discord and has also developed other integrations.
Ok, thanks for the hint. I already struggle downloading the correct files. I downloaded the intg-Yamaha-avr folder but when I try to create a custom integration with the web configurator it asks for tgz or gz files. This folder does not contain any of it. 
I will contact him
Which integration do you mean? The integrations from the git of unfolded circle are always in the latest firmware. So no need to install it.
I the meantime quite a few community integrations where published. Here is an almost complete list
Click on the icon right from the author and you will directed to his git repository. On the right you see releases and when you click it you get to the download section. DOwnload the .tar.gz file and this can be uploaded to the remote.

I’m talking about the one for my Yamaha AVR (RX-A2A) Jack provided the link, some posts above. It is not released, so it is not in your list.
I’m still confused, where to download it. If i follow your advice and click the icon right beside the author, the three dots, I just see the fixes. So which Icon do you mean?
I think Jack not yet realeased a version which can be uploaded to the remote. This must run externally.
Normally select an integration from the list and press the marked icon:
Then you will get to the git and press the marked releases on the right:
Then download the marked .tar.gz file. This can then be uploaded to the remote in integrations, + for add and then custom integration:
This was only an example the other integration work the same ways.

Thanks for your explanation. I wrote a message to Jack at discord. Let’s see, what he answers.
