I instaled Android debug bridge add-on and it seems to work. I can read:

INFO: Connecting to device: 192.168.45.121...
already connected to 192.168.45.121:5555

on add-on log. Then I wrote this code to configuration.yaml file:

media_player:  
  - platform: androidtv
    name: Fire TV
    device_class: firetv
    host: 192.168.45.121
    adb_server_ip: 127.0.0.1
    get_sources: true

But after a restart, no firetv card is on lovelace gui. I tried to add it manually, but I am not sure what is the right card. I tried with media control card, but there is no firetv entity to select… I read the documentation about adding entities manually to configuration.yaml, and I don’t know why fire tv doesn’t appears in my entities list…

I successfully installed the ZoneMinder integration. The camera’s are showing up in Home Assistant and performing well. The problem is that the camera is not exposable via Google Home Assistant. Neither via the web config nor via the manual config. The same camera is exposable to Google Assistant via platform “generic”. but the performance of that stream is really poor. Is it possible to expose the ZoneMinder integrated camera to Google Assistant?

edit: I noticed that the “camera.play_stream” is not available for the camera with platform “zoneminder”.

p.s. Happy new year! And compliments to the developers!

Hi,
I’ve been looking for a way to do this for the last ten days, with no luck,
I’ve developed a weather card, and I’d like to use the “more-info” to display the forecast for the next days or week.

I need to display dynamic html code, already done and working, just need to show it inside a “popup” div or something…
Even tryed to use pure javascript but didn’t worked.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance, and happy new year

Anyone successfully operating Pioneer receivers with HA?

Hello,
I added my Wyze cams that have RTSP enabled with this setup

camera:
  - platform: ffmpeg
    name: Front Door
    input: -rtsp_transport udp -i rtsp://<user>:<password>@192.168.86.<XX>/live

Everything works fine and the video is really smooth

I tried to use the record and snapshot features and they worked pretty well too.
But when I tried to stream the video to my Chromecast, it connected to the device but displayed the chrome cast icon instead of the feed of the camera. I got this in my logs

Error handling request

I tried to use a different setup using the generic camera component but it didn’t work either.
My current setup uses Nginx so my base URL is not https. (I was worried it will break things so I didn’t play with it but if it does work using https I will take the risk).

I also connected my cameras through google assistant by making my own app. When I ask her to show me the front door it displays a text saying Smart home camera .

Thanks in advance for any help

Hello

I have 2 Amazon Echo devices (Dot & Input) and 2 different amplifiers - one in each room.
The Echo Dot is in the living room while the Echo Input is in the bedroom.
There is an option to say in the living room: “Alexa, play music here” to play music only in the living room (Assuming that the second device don’t here this command) ?
Means, I wants that the relevant device will “understand” that the music should be play only in my current location.

Hello -

Successfully installed Home Assistant on Raspberry Pi 4 following the Home Assistant instructions (not a custom install). I have the RP4 connected to a monitor and keyboard. From that connection all I can see is a console screen (all the lines of code etc from the install).

I can see the Home Assistant UI by using another computer at http://hassio:8123. My question is:

Is there a way for me to see and use the UI from the same RP4 that home assistant is running on? And how do I do it?

Thanks in advance.

But on alarm activation the payload reads exactly as it is written rather than returning the values of the template.
Now I am sure it is a ‘thunder-fingers’ error (read typo or misunderstanding) for the life of me I cannot see it!

I have tried a couple of permutations but am as yet unable to wrap my head round it?

examples, guidance, and pointers to docs are all appreciated.

Happy New Year to you all may it gift you with the learning you need to succeed!

I have a Mitsubishi heatpump that is being controlled using MQTT. The device I’m using to control the unit handles HA MQTT autodiscovery. I’m located in California, and have set HA’s units to “imperial”:

homeassistant:
  unit_system: imperial

The problem is that the temperature data from the unit is in Celsius, but HA is displaying these Celsius values as Fahrenheit values.

34 PM898×634 21.3 KB

I’ve tried setting the unit_of_measurement to “C” and “°C” using a customization, but that doesn’t change anything.

Entity state:

hvac_modes: heat_cool,cool,dry,heat,fan_only,off
current_temperature: 22
min_temp: 16
max_temp: 31
target_temp_step: 1
temperature: 23
fan_mode: QUIET
fan_modes: AUTO,QUIET,1,2,3,4
hvac_action: off
swing_mode: AUTO
swing_modes: AUTO,1,2,3,4,5,SWING
friendly_name: guest_bedroom
supported_features: 41
unit_of_measurement: °C

I had been using a custom component for the Mitsubishi heatpumps that, looking through the code, set the temperature_unit of the entity to TEMP_CELSIUS. I guess because of this, even though the data in MQTT is in Celsius, the custom component temperatures are correctly being converted to Fahrenheit.

MQTT:

office/ac {"power":"OFF","mode":"FAN","temperature":23.5,"fan":"3","vane":"AUTO","wideVane":"|"}
office/ac/status {"roomTemperature":24,"operating":false}
office/ac/timers {"mode":"NONE","onMins":0,"onRemainMins":0,"offMins":0,"offRemainMins":0}

Entity state:

hvac_modes: auto,cool,dry,heat,fan_only,off
current_temperature: 75
min_temp: 45
max_temp: 95
target_temp_step: 1
temperature: 74
fan_mode: 3
fan_modes: Auto,Quiet,1,2,3,4
hvac_action: off
swing_mode: Auto
swing_modes: Auto,1,2,3,4,5,Swing
friendly_name: Office
supported_features: 41

How do you configure an autodiscovered MQTT climate device to have HA convert the temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit?

I have some devices, notably the Zooz Z-Wave Powerstrip that like to over-share data. My database gets huge, my log-file gets huge, and any operation with these files takes forever or times out.

Right now I’m using hass.io, so I can’t see any easy way to manually trim the database. (Even after a reset, SQLite Web just returns 502: Bad Gateway.) Anyone found a good option that allows me to stay in the easier hass.io world?

My GE 14294 Dimmers have the annoying property of saving the brightness level when dimmed. I came up with the following automation which “worked” leveraging the double-tap (I made the group association to enable double click). Double-tap up worked to set the light to full brightness as desired, double-tap off doesn’t work… but while annoying I can live with that unless someone has a fix.

So I’m looking for help with two things:

1. How to make this also turn off the light all the way with a double click off?
2. How to modify this so to be a single automation that can be applied to every dimmer switch, individually? Meaning, I don’t want to control both office_ceiling and bedroom_ceiling (e.g. two different switches, I actually have about 10) at the same time… I just want to avoid having to make 10 duplicate automations, 1 for every switch. I tried making entity_id into a list, that broke it. It would need to listen to multiple events (for different entities), determine which one actually triggered it (via a filter?) and then run the action for only the triggering entity.

Current, working* code:

- id: double_tap_office
  alias: Dimmer Double Tap
  trigger:
  - event_data:
      entity_id: zwave.office_ceiling
    event_type: zwave.node_event
    platform: event
  action:
  - data_template:
      brightness: 255
    entity_id: light.office_ceiling
    service_template: 
      {% if trigger.event.data.basic_level == 255 %}
        light.turn_on
      {% elif trigger.event.data.basic_level == 0 %}
        light.turn_off   <--- This doesn't seem to happen.
      {% endif %}

Hi, i’m planning to get few Sonoff T1 or T2 3 gang switches to replace my existing switches. And I want like to try out the IFTTT to integrate with HA first before going to flash the Sonoff with Tasmota. I have few Xiaomi motion sensors that will trigger the switches on/off and i would like to know if there any significant delay if using IFTTT for HA integration?

Generally, i want to do this,
Motion detected -> IFTTT -> Sonoff switch ON
Motion not detected -> IFTTT -> Sonoff switch OFF

Also, how stable is the connectivity if using the IFTTT for HA integration? Any instances of server/ewelink down?

Please advise and thanks in advance.

Hi guys,

Migrating my setup to new PI4, flashed new SD card, installed Hassio and Samba share, copied my last snapshot and trying to restore full configuration.
After I click wipe and restore it is doing something for few minutes, then I lose connectivity and after it is restored it goes back to freshly installed hassio - no previous configuration, no automations, no scripts, etc. Tried multiple times but no results - just not restoring the snapshot.
However all addons - duckdns, ssh, etc. are restored and configured.

Tried reflashing and restoring multiple times, but stuck and not really sure what to do now.

Any ideas?

I have blink added ok and can arm disarm from an overview panel. I also have tracking on my (Android phone) also displayed in a tile.

I’m sure it’s just syntax, I’m very new to programming and YAML .
Thanks in advance

Footnote: This is the error I get when validating configuration:
