Hello all, I’m using the generic camera snapshot function to grab still images from some recent Dahua cameras. All is working well however it seems to be quite slow in grabbing the image. I’m seeing a 3 to 5 second delay on average. My system is running on a NUC with processor load extremely low. I’ve tried disabling snapshot authentication on the cameras but they’re still a delay. Anyone have some thoughts on what might be wrong? When I hit the url from a browser, the image is quite fast to load.

Hi! I am trying to control IOT Link on my pc through mqtt with input selects. There are multiple serious issues with this, namely that I am terrible at programming, not familiar with the syntax of jinja or yaml just impatient in general for any kind of debugging. I have tried to basically copy-paste code i have found on the site but of course it does not work.
This is what it looks like:

- id: computer_state
  alias: Power
  trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id: input_select.pc_power
  condition: []
  action:
  - service: mqtt.publish
    data_template:
      entity_id: input_select.pc_power
      option: >-
        {% set mydict = { 
          'logoff': 'Log Out'
          'lock': 'Lock',
          'reboot': 'Reset', } %}
        {{ mydict.get(action.topic) }}
      topic: "iotlink/workgroup/odin/commands/{{action.topic}}"
      payload: ''

And this is the error it throws:

Invalid config for [automation]: invalid template (TemplateSyntaxError: expected token ‘,’, got ‘:’) for dictionary value @ data[‘action’][0][‘data_template’][‘option’]. Got None. (See /config/configuration.yaml, line 48).
Invalid config for [automation]: Entity ID input_select. is an invalid entity id for dictionary value @ data[‘trigger’][0][‘entity_id’]. Got None
expected str for dictionary value @ data[‘id’]. Got None
string value is None for dictionary value @ data[‘alias’]. Got None. (See /config/configuration.yaml, line 48).

Line 48 is an enter, with nothing else, line 49 is:

automation: !include automations.yaml

Very helpful.

Thank you in advance for your help

Hi all,
Inside and outside my home I have more than a dozen of cheap 433 MHz temperature/humidity sensors like this:

61IUv3GoflL.AC_SL1500565×1500 32.3 KB

I’m structuring my configuration.yaml much like Frenck and others did, so I’m grouping those RF sensors in a rtl_433 directory containing one yaml file for each sensor. I welcome better solutions.

All those RF sensors all working well, but spanning any configuration patch/innovation/update on every sensor .yaml file is asking for troubles.
So I’m looking for a better way to define them, some alternative to copy/paste 50 yaml lines each.

In my dreams, the only difference could be something like assigning the unique “id” to a “parameter” like ${rtl433_temp_humid_id} (“190” in the example below) and then including a templated file.

My actual definition(s):

  ## Analog sensors: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/sensor.mqtt/

  # rtl_433/Nexus-TH/190/2 {"time":"2020-02-04 11:42:39","model":"Nexus-TH","id":190,"channel":2,"battery_ok":1,"temperature_C":20.4,"humidity":54}

    force_update: true                # Sends update events even if the value hasn’t changed. Useful if you want to have meaningful value graphs in history.
    value_template: "{{ value_json.temperature_C }}"    # https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/mqtt/processing_json/
  - platform: filter                  # https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/filter

      - filter: time_simple_moving_average
        window_size: 00:20            # HH:MM
        precision: 1

BTW I’m open also to more efficient filtering tricks to smooth the graphing and reduce value changes, as each one generates a DB update.

Any hint?
Thanks,
Piero

I have restored HomeAssistant to another NUC since the one Home Assistant was running on crashed. On my backup I have copied the .storage folder including the account information. For some reason this seems not to work. After restore I started Home Assistant and It was starting in onboarding mode asking for a new owner account setup. Ok fare enough, I entered account details and pressed the blue button ‘account aanmaken’ (because I use a Dutch version), but nothing happens.

Then I decided to do the account reset procedure as described on the site, by removing some auth files form the .storage folder. (I do this using a local network connection on http://192.168.0.26)
Again nothing happens when I press the button… What am I doing wrong, and why is my backup not simply working?

Hello,
Today is did start up my new Raspberry Pi 4B with HA.
I’m coming from a Homey and want to migrate to HA.
I installed HA, Samba, the configurator, Node-RED and DuckDNS. All working fine.
I installed a ZWAVE.me and Zigbee Conbee II Dongle (deCONZ) after some trouble also running fine.
I added a NEO coolcam wallplug as test for ZWAVE and a Xiaomi doorsensor at deCON.
Also succeeded that.

The questions I have:
I did try to start a simple Que in Node-RED switching the NEO Coolcam wallplug on and off depending o the state of the Xiami Door Sensor.

In the even-state tile I do see the NEO coolcam entity ID but not the Xiaomi Zigbee sensor as an option to chose?

Where to find the Zigbee door sensor? Or did I install the Zigbee wrong.
Beside this the Zwave NEO coolcam is showen in the overview, I don’t see the Zigbee sensor?

If I look at the deCONZ part I can see the doorsensor and also changing the state

I’m a newbee so please help.

I am trying to set up a history states sensor to simply count the total time a switch is set to the on position. Should be pretty simple but its kicking my butt
I don’t have any special configs for History or Recorder, for recorder I just have Purge_keep_days: 30
Basically its a D1 Mini(tasmota) that will be tied to the contacts of a relay. So when the relay contacts close it sets the switch to on, when they open: off. The coil side of the relay will be tied to my Oil Boiler pump to get actual run time of the burner.

The sensor for the tasmota topic works as it updates HA with on or off perfectly but the history stats just shows as unknown.

Here is the config I am trying to work with

#Oil Boiler Sensor History
  - platform: history_stats
    name: Boiler time
    entity_id: sensor.boiler_switch
    state: "ON"
    end: '{{ now().replace(hour=0).replace(minute=0).replace(second=0) }}'
    duration:
      days: 30
#Oil Boiler Switch Sensor
  - platform: mqtt

I’m looking to see if anyone has a way to display the average time that the HVAC fan runs daily. I have the sensor that shows me on/off, but I would love to be able to see the avg. time that the fan runs every day. I was torn on how to do this and figured I would see if anyone has already pulled off something like this.

I do also do have grafana/influxdb configured, I’m sure I could put something in there then present it over to HA, but I don’t even know where to start to setup something like this in there.

Any thoughts?

Hello all,

I am a quite the Noob, but I have managed to get most things working. I am doing an updated Home Assistant Core on a Rpi4 (fresh install) and in preparation I will be using ZHA with the Nortec dongle (used deCONZ in my last install). I then went to configuration > integrations > and scrolled down to find ZHA. I can’t find it. At first I thought maybe my spelling was wrong but it is unavailable on both my installs. Here is what I am presented with:

I also searched to see if I could find any documentation that mention it no longer being available. Am I missing something? Has this been deprecated?

Thank you for your guidance and suggestions.

My Raspberry Pi 3B running HASSIO locked up twice recently so I concluded that the uSD card was bad. After reintstalling HASSIO on a new card and enabling the Z-Wave integration, HA finds all of my Z-Wave devices but for the switches, where Overview used to display sliders that allowed me to control the swtiches, it now only displays their status of “Ready”. How do I get back to having switch controls in the interface?

First of all I decided to switch on/ off ventilation using Xiaomi switch.
The automation looks like that (and it works flawlessly):

# Załączamy/ Wyłączamy Wentylator w Łazience
- alias: Załącz/ Wyłącz Wentylator w Łazience
  trigger:
    platform: event
    event_type: xiaomi_aqara.click
    event_data:
      entity_id: binary_sensor.switch_158d000373c264
      click_type: single
  action:
    service: switch.toggle
    data:
      entity_id: switch.przelacznik_lazienka_wentylator

Next thing I decided to add is a delay to auto-switch off after 5 minutes if I forget to press a button. I modified the code:

# Załączamy/ Wyłączamy Wentylator w Łazience
- alias: Załącz/ Wyłącz Wentylator w Łazience
  trigger:
    platform: event
    event_type: xiaomi_aqara.click
    event_data:
      entity_id: binary_sensor.switch_158d000373c264
      click_type: single
  action:
    - delay: '00:05:00'
    - service: switch.off
      entity_id: switch.przelacznik_lazienka_wentylator

I can switch it on/ off via pressing a button but unfortunately the delay doesn’t work. What’s wrong with the code here?

As the default group.all_lights are no longer automatically maintained, you are supposed to use entity_id: all in service: light.turn_on/off. Pretty straightforward. But how do you call all the lights when using them in an automation?

I have an automation that triggers when all lights are off, like this:

  - alias: Automation X
    trigger:
      - platform: state
        entity_id: group.all_lights
        to: 'off'
        for:
          minutes: 20

Is there an easy way to replace the group.all_lights here? Without manually create a group containing all lights.
