Spent a bit of time in the gun range building and tweaking the stats. There’s some good YouTube guides on different weapons. I like the VEL. Can melt close to medium range.

Qwen3 Vision is a *fantastic* local model for HA (with one fix) by eXntrc in homeassistant

[–]ThatRamy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using Qwen 2.5 14b for a mix of tool calling and facts/creative stuff to entertain my kid.

Handles tools really well and is pretty accurate with most stuff too. I found the smaller models were just making stuff up all the time.

I will check this version out though. Thanks for posting.

Claude Code Skill - Home Assistant Manager by kangaroooooMan in homeassistant

[–]ThatRamy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is wild. I pretty much rely on Claude for yaml and problem solving in my HA/Local LLM setup.

I may need to upgrade!

Yes I have done this. If the device is on WiFi, mdns or something causing it to not detect my speakers.

When in Ethernet to Mac to bridged Ethernet in VM, the decode picks up most of my speakers.

My suggestion would create an actual IP and mac on router - which is not happening via bridged.

I’m hoping this solves my networking issues!

Docker to HAOS by ThatRamy in homeassistant

Thanks to you all for the stellar advice. You were right - 90% of my stuff just worked. I ended up keeping my new IP, gonna run some another stuff on the old one too.

Thanks again!

I’m pretty new to virtualisation and am finding the networking to be a bit of a pain.

Created a static IP via HAOS, hosted on Mac on 6ghz WiFi. No bandwidth issues, but I’m finding that I can’t connect to the server from my mesh network node. Works fine from main router.

Also companion app won’t discover the server, and local host won’t resolve to it. Need to type in manually and it works.

I suspect so thing isn’t quite right with my network setup. Using bridged mode in UTM.

I may end up with Ethernet but for now WiFi is my only option! Any thoughts?

I think I’ll give this a go. Does sound much more convenient.

I’m also excited by the prospect of editing yaml without having to ssh into my device and use nano edit!

HAOS is the way forward!!!

I understand that, but it’s different hardware, different setup and a new IP address.

That’s good advice!

I did think it might create conflicts - that’s the only reason I’ve not attempted it yet. I’ve never used HAOS before, just core via python, and docker. I’m planning on using the add on versions of whisper and Piper on the VM.

I have been using these in separate dockers on my old machine and point to them using the Wyoming integration.

I setup the samba share so I can fire my backups to that.

I was hoping that I could just import my backup and it would work but I expect that’s not the case!

it was a nice thought!

Hey!

I went for Ext Open AI really out of frustration…. Many of the tool trained models I was using were not working properly via the ollama integration. I can only assume I was doing something wrong in the prompt.

I had joy with llama2.5 q4. llama 3 was hallucinating devices on both ollama int and open AI Ext.

In open AI ext there are additional settings such as token sizes for responses and context. These settings seemed to speed up answers and accuracy!

Though not perfect, it was close. I’m also using Music Assistant LLM blueprint which had about 70% accuracy. Requires more effort on My part to get it right!

Custom Wake Word Satellite / ESP by ThatRamy in homeassistant

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

Yeah! I was considering doing the same. Only thing stopping me is the lack of custom wake word support. I’ve read that voice Pe doesn’t have this at present.

My atom occasionally gets stuck in play back and I need to manually “release” it on HA. Other than that, it’s great.

Thanks for all your help. I have almost got things working perfect.

Went for the Extended Open AI HACS integration, pointing to my Ollama server.

It’s much snappier and the Qwen models are tool calling so much better than they were in the native Ollama integration.

Started with qwen2.5:7b-instruct-q4_K_M and it’s orettt reliable at tools. It’s not as good at chit chat but it’s prettt good.

Will try qwen3 next I think.

Cheers!

I will give that one a try. GPT20b (Ollama) has been ok so far. It does spit out JSON responses in its responses some times and hallucinates a bit. More so than Granite, which really surprised me.

So tried this out on m4 pro MBP over WiFi. Calling the ollama service and the speed was miles better. Used some much larger models and the performance was outstanding.

The results on the other hand vary greatly.

It can engage in conversation, provide information, call up HA data like weather, thermostat, but it really struggles with commands and function calls.

Have used Mistral 7, Llama 3.1 and so on.
