   - platform: template
     sensors:
       bedroom_activity:
         friendly_name: "BedRoom Activity on TV"
         value_template: >-
           {% if is_state('media_player.master', 'playing') %}
               {{ (state_attr('media_player.master', 'media_title') | regex_replace(find='[^\\w]', replace=' ')) }}
           {% endif %}
   
   - platform: template
     sensors:
       kidsroom_activity:
         friendly_name: "Kids Room Activity on TV"
         value_template: >-
           {% if is_state('media_player.home_theater', 'playing') %}
               {{ (state_attr('media_player.home_theater', 'media_title') | regex_replace(find='[^\\w]', replace=' ')) }}
           {% endif %}
   
   - platform: template
     sensors:
       lg_activity:
         friendly_name: "LG Activity on TV"
         value_template: >-
           {% if is_state('media_player.living_room_tv', 'on') %}
               {% if (state_attr('media_player.living_room_tv', 'media_title') | regex_replace(find='[^\\w]', replace=' ')) != 'None' %}
                   {{ (state_attr('media_player.living_room_tv', 'media_title') | regex_replace(find='[^\\w]', replace=' ')) }}
               {% else %}
                   {{ (state_attr('media_player.living_room_tv', 'source') | regex_replace(find='[^\\w]', replace=' ')) }}
