### Overriding Source Names
Source names in device files are usually set to the name that the media player uses. These often aren't very descriptive, so you can override these names in the configuration file. You can also remove a source by setting its name to `null`
```yaml
media_player:
-platform:smartir
name:Living room TV
unique_id:living_room_tv
device_code:1000
controller_data:192.168.10.10
source_names:
HDMI1:DVD Player
HDMI2:Xbox
VGA:null
