Feature request: ssl support and player select

[tinoucas]

Hello

I do not know enough python to create clean changes for this, but..

My home assistant is in https, and I had to change the scheme from ws to wss to make it connect. A check for "https" in the endpoint would be better 🙂

Also, it would be nice to be able to specify a player directly, and not have it discover and create as many mpris controls as it can find (even though it is pretty cool)

Thank you for this! I hard coded the changes I wanted so I'm already happy 😄

hello @tinoucas,

Can you show me the your changes? I also would like to use https instead of http

Thanks!

You need to change the 'ws' scheme to 'wss'

Not a Python coder myself either but this seems to work:

If the provided url has "https" it uses scheme "wss" else "ws" is used
