The media control card is used to display media player entities on an interface with easy to use controls.

To add the media control card to your user interface:

1. In the top right of the screen, select the pencil icon.
   • If this is your first time editing a dashboard, the Edit dashboard dialog appears.
     • By editing the dashboard, you are taking over control of this dashboard.
     • This means that it is no longer automatically updated when new dashboard elements become available.
     • To continue, in the dialog, select the three dots menu, then select Take control.
2. Add a card to your dashboard.
