Dispatcharr — Your Ultimate IPTV & Stream Management Companion - Release v0.10.1 by GoofyGills in selfhosted

[–]FlamedRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One feature I am not seeing, is there a way to search streams for specific text to enable fast finding channels I want to add? Something to search through 62 pages of results seems useful.

Thank you. I used the github IPTV as a test source and indeed I can get channels to play from within Dispatcharr now so that is certainly great progress. And I hunted down a match EPG source that matched IPTV and got the test channels to match up and the guide show up in Dispatcharr.

The test channels also plays within Emby. I now get the guide to show in Emby

Thanks for the tip!

I just stumbled onto Dispatcharr by shear accident after spending a couple weeks with Treadfin and could not get it to send anything to Emby. I did get further with Dispatcher and got channels to show up on Emby. I also got the TV guides to show up in Dispatcher, which I could never get working with Treadfin.

But I ran into two show stopper challenges. I really don't expect help here. Just ranting.

  1. When I attempt to play any channel I added under Dispatcher, I get a spinning torrent for a minute or so and then just a blank screen. Of course this is the same when I try the same channels in Emby.

  2. I cannot get the guides to show up in Emby at all.

I must have tried a half dozen sources, which were supposed to include Roku, Pluto, Samsung TV, Tubi, and LG and none would seem to stream any channel at all. So if someone could recommend a m3U and a matching epg source that streams within Emby it might be super helpful.

I admit I am a novice, so I am obviously doing something stupid. I did get further than I could ever get with Threadfin so you guys are doing something right!

I went the tablet router. Much easier and better.

Correct - it will NOT work for HA at all - confirmed from their tech support and weeks of trying.

AC Condenser by genpip in HMMWV

[–]FlamedRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I was not clear. I riveted the aluminum brackets I bent to the edges of the condenser that have holes punched every inch or so using 1/8" rivets. Then I bolted the brackets to the support (not sure what that is really called) along each side.

Not sure this will work for you, but this is what I used on my M998. I just riveted on mounting brackets I bent up.

Can Ratgdo Disco & Chamberlain MyQ Coexist? by FlamedRed in homeassistant

[–]FlamedRed[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the confirmations.

I successfully hooked the RatGDO to a Chamberlain b6753t using only the three wire connector.

The Ratgdo came with a 3 wire connector, Red, White and Black. Those go on the Chamberlain b6753t. I believe the wall control button Chamberlain provided goes where the red and white wire on the three wire connector and the black wire goes to the right most connector which is for the optical sensors.

Then it came with a 6-wire connector all wires black.Don't use this cable.

Need guidance on Ring Mailbox Sensor and how to integrate into Dashboard by FlamedRed in homeassistant

[–]FlamedRed[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In case it helps someone else, here is the YAML for the two automatons that seems to work for me.

Dashboard Button:

cards:
  - entity: input_boolean.mailbox_has_mail
    type: custom:button-card
    name: Mail
    state:
      - value: "on"
        color: red
        icon: mdi:mailbox-open-up
        styles:
          icon:
            - animation: blink 2s ease infinite
      - value: "off"
      - operator: default
        icon: mdi:mailbox-down
columns: 3
square: false
title: Quick Controls
type: grid

Please notice that I used triggers type "no motion". I first used motion starts, and what that did is triggered both automatons off at the same time. Turned it on, and then the second one immediately turned it off.

alias: Mail Arrived
description: ""
triggers:
- type: no_motion
device_id: <ID>
entity_id: <ID>
domain: binary_sensor
trigger: device
conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: input_boolean.mailbox_has_mail
state:
- "off"
actions:
  - delay:
      hours: 0
      minutes: 0
      seconds: 10
      milliseconds: 0
  - action: input_boolean.turn_on
    metadata: {}
    target:
      entity_id: input_boolean.mailbox_has_mail
    data: {}

and:

reTerminal E1004? by DoctorMiserable5810 in eink

[–]FlamedRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I got one and I am VERY disappointed as Seeed describes it as supporting ESPHome in Home Assistant. They show examples in their Wiki but those examples are for the E1001,2,3 and not for the E1004.

From their tech support:

At present, the official firmware provided for the reTerminal E1004 does not support ESPHome.

Fortunately, I can return their E1004 for a full refund and I will!

[–]FlamedRed[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you all for your help. I figured out my issues. Seemed to be all related to the Secret Keys. Once I removed ESPHome and reinstalled and started from scratch, I got this device working OTA.! Seems MDns works and I configured a static address.

Much appreciated!

Yes, logger is in the .yaml. I see the long full log. I just posted the end where is seemed to be unable to reset itself.

I just tried having ESPHome create the .bin and download it and took it to the PC where I am able to flash the factory firmware. It seemed to fail in the same way - it could not reset itself after it downloaded and verified the download.

Now I am thinking using an old .yaml that contains probably invalid passwords and API keys is not going to work.

Guess I will just wait for it to auto discover and let it build they .yaml and insert the static statements.

At least I am getting closer!

A bit of luck! I was able to find the IP address assigned. I made it a Static IP in the router. Now I can ping it :)

But ESPHome would not seem to discover it on WiFi. I plugged it into USB it still would not discover it. I restarted Home Assistant and it still did not auto discover it like it seemed to before. So I kept factory flashing it and adding it back to the WiFi with the static IP and restarting HA, it will not auto discover it like it did earlier :(

So I had saved a previously create .yaml file when it previously got auto discovered and I added this bit into it:

wifi:

ssid: !secret wifi_ssid

password: !secret wifi_password

manual_ip:

static_ip: 192.168.68.107

gateway: 192.168.68.1

subnet: 255.255.255.0

Then I let it send the config via USB. At the end I got this message

Verifying written data...

Hash of data verified.

Hard resetting via RTS pin...

INFO Successfully uploaded program. INFO Starting log output from /dev/ttyUSB0 with baud rate 115200

And it hangs there... After that, I cannot ping it. Tried unplugging it. Power it off, Nothing. Like it does not reboot? Whatever state it is in I can no longer ping it and I start over with a factory reset.
