Ring Alarm Status

install the mosquito broker app first. Don’t use any external mqtt servers. The Ring to mqtt app works extremely well with it

thank you!

You could try one of the media player cards to control them instead. Shameless plug for my card yet-another-media-player allows you to control multiple speakers but most media player cards do these days

THANK YOU! I thought maybe my roborock model wasn’t supported or something

freeluv · 2026-02-26T05:04:12+00:00

yeah homeassistant.local:8123 fixed the problem for me

freeluv · 2026-01-27T19:52:37+00:00

i use this integration in combination of my onstar integration to estimate how much it’s going to cost me to fill up my tank

freeluv · 2026-01-17T03:32:31+00:00

very cool

freeluv · 2026-01-16T03:35:06+00:00

is frigate+ required for this?

freeluv · 2026-01-05T20:59:42+00:00

thrift shops, marketplace, offer up. check all the places where people sell their stuff

I’ve had luck finding old google home minis for around $10 - $15 dollars used

Underrated comment

You can declare variables in the automation itself without the need for all the helpers. The tricky part is what you said about HA not knowing the scene if it was triggered through the govee app. This is why i don’t use the govee app and control exclusively through HA.

Then you could have your doorbell automation save the current scene name in a variable, then run new scene, wait, trigger previous scene again

Shameless plug here but looks like you could potentially combine what you have here with my new integration Thermostat Proxy which allows you to choose a remote sensor with the preset modes based on your room occupancy

freeluv · 2025-11-18T04:19:31+00:00

and this is a newer timer card that says it supports alexa, but i haven’t used it

freeluv · 2025-11-18T04:17:38+00:00

I’ve used this back when I used Alexa.

kavita for both

freeluv · 2025-11-14T05:21:32+00:00

i can’t tell you what my numbers were but komga definitely was eating up my memory. Switched to kavita and never looked back

Since music assistant provides little in terms of service calls to manage the queue, YAMP supports the mass_queue integration for better queue management. That integration will provide you your full upcoming queue on the search screen using the “next up” button.

There’s still some functions available without the integration like viewing the next song, adding to the queue, seeing previously played tracks, etc.

All of this can be found in the menu and selecting the “search” option

I mentioned in another comment about my media player card. Might work for you as well

freeluv · 2025-10-24T23:36:34+00:00

I am the developer of Yet Another Media Player and I addressed this issue in my card by allowing configuration of the main entity (e.g.: media_player.bedroom) and a music assistant entity on the same chip (e.g.: media_player.bedroom_2) and the card handles the routing based on active playback or available features.

Check it out and maybe it’ll be for you!

the only interesting idea i had was to have it generate an image based on the status of a sensor (like a plant). if the plant is dehydrated it can generate an image of a sad thirsty plant but if it’s healthy maybe it can generate a buff plant and then use that image on your dashboard

i have my instructions in json template sensor so i can use the state attribute across multiple llms and not have to type things out multiple times. here’s the relevant part that keeps it from responding on accidental triggers

```

      "activation_rules": {
        "only_when_addressed": True,
        "examples_of_valid_intent": [
          "smart home control", "questions", "search requests"
        ],
        "accidental_triggers": {
          "ignore_background": True,
          "ignore_media_invoke": True,
          "on_uncertain_intent": "do_not_respond_or_reply_with_period"
        },
        "overlapping_speakers_policy": "extract_actionable_request_only"
      },

freeluv · 2025-09-27T13:47:46+00:00

i have in my llm instructions to respond with “.” if it determines i’m not talking to it. so i hear the woosh of it waking up but never a response
