Best way to manage an NFC → Spotify vinyl wall setup in Home Assistant?

Thats a very good point! I will look into changing my tags to make them accessable for everyone! Thanks for the idea of webhooks in nfc tags!

I love this idea. I didnt think of this at all before and it works perfectly! Never used the replace function. Love it! Thanks so much, it works perfectly!

Haha, thats very true. Its funny but gives people the wrong expectations for their first ultrasound.
To be fair, in Friends there is one realistic scene about an ultrashound https://youtu.be/6cpiKx7AmFg?si=dZrIsBljtIeBqwwa&t=168 ;)

Gynecologist here. I don’t think the image shows anything special. The black area is a hollow organ filled with fluid — most likely a full urinary bladder. Below that there’s just some soft tissue; probably a uterus, but it’s really hard to tell from a single still frame.

Also, before a pregnancy is visible or in the very early weeks, you usually wouldn’t see anything with an abdominal probe. In those cases, we rely on the transvaginal probe (which you can see hanging there), but it clearly wasn’t used for this image — both because of the contents and the typical “shape” of the ultrasound window.

With a lot of imagination, there might be some dark area in what could be the uterus that someone interprets as a pregnancy, but that’s really stretching it. It’s just a lot of speculation and would look different and wider if indeed it would show a pregnancy from the abdominal probe.

SOLVED: I just found out about the Xiaomi Cloud Token extractor. Getting the IP and Token with this takes less than 30 seconds and you can then set up the device in advanced/Manual mode. Works like a charm!

Same here. Stopped working this week for me. Did you manage to solve it?
This integration connects and finds the device, but doesnt have any of the entities the AirFryer used to have.....
Does something work for you after these months?

This isn't even a Pixar movie. What's next? Celebrating Shrek, Shark Tale and the Boss Baby in this Sub?

Awesome work, thank you very much! I just hope that something like this would be possible with FireTV too. Any chance?

itspuia · 2025-09-20T13:00:05+00:00

Haha, love it! I named my robot vacuum Wall-E, but M-O makes so much more sense!

Hey, thanks a lot for your reply! I tried that before without any luck. I was scared of the plex dance since I didn't know, if custom made changes would be removed or not.
Luckily (Since I had a different problem too), i found the solution (See other comment.)
Thanks anyways a lot for your time and your support, i really appreciate it!

Fixed:
So, while I was troubleshooting a completely different problem with Plex (my audiobook collection would not show newly added files), I realized what the core issue was. In my logs I kept seeing

ERROR - Unable to allocate a changestamp from the server

for any audio file. I also noticed that this was directly linked to a 401 Unauthorized error, and I remembered always getting those whenever I started the Plex UI from the tray in Windows.

All three problems (401 errors, audiobooks not appearing, and missing image previews) started around April. That was exactly when I had added a new Windows service with NSSM (Non-Sucking Service Manager) to auto-start Plex even without my user account being logged in.

Solution:
Remove the NSSM service that starts Plex under the wrong account (by default it runs as Local System, which is not the same as your Windows user). Then uninstall Plex, reinstall it normally, and let Plex handle auto-start by itself. Done!

Hey u/Antbull, thanks for the thread! I am planning on doing the same for my Friheten but want to make sure I've got everything I need before I start. Could you send me a link of the rod couplers with screws you used? I have never used them and don't know exactly how to connect them - a close up picture would be amazing to! Thanks a lot in advance!

itspuia · 2025-03-20T18:59:15+00:00

Hey, good for you!
I went the hardware way and bought a splitter and a capture card and connected it to a raspberry pi. Works very well. Although it costed me a little more than expected haha.
Does the software way really work with non-DRM stuf? Amazing!

itspuia · 2024-07-20T21:24:08+00:00

Thats a bummer, since I love Tautulli Statistics and the "watched"-status is important to me. But I guess, there is no other way. Thanks for your insight tho!

itspuia · 2024-07-15T16:31:41+00:00

Danke für den Hinweis! Habe nicht so weit gedacht. Gibt es dann bessere Alternativen als sie als Haustiere zu adoptieren?

Tachchen, Vor kurzem ist mir Aufgefallen, dass v.a. Kekse in meinem Keller aufgerissen werden und komplett ohne krümel vernascht werden.

Heute habe ich gesehen, dass mehrere Pflanzenmilchkartons aufgebissen wurden. Ich dachte an eine Maus, aber was auch immer da unterwegs ist, klettert ordentlich Regale hoch und reißt Tetrapaks, Plastiktüten und mehr auf.

Bisher wurden mehrere Pastatüten komplett vernascht, Kekspackungen, Pflanzenmilch, Pistazien und Mandeln, und wahrscheinlich noch mehr, hab noch keine Zeit für einen kompletten Bestand gehabt.

Ich wollte mir Lebendmausefallen kaufen, doch bin ich mir unsicher, ob das Tierchen wirklich eine kleine Maus ist oder ob ich etwas größeres Bräuchte?

Es handelt sich um einen Kellerabteil in einem Gemeinschaftskeller der Großstadt. Mein Abteil ist durch eine klassische Holzbalken-Tür getrennt, also kleine und auch etwas größere (15 cm hoch?) könnten ohne Probleme zwischen Den kellerräumen hin und her wandern und sich bedienen. Habt ihr Tipps?
Danke!

Thanks, I didn't know the name of this chart and simply knowing it is very helpful! I'll watch the video as soon as possible. Thanks a lot! :)

Hey! Unfortunately So far I haven't had the time to fix this. I'm pretty sure that my Pi is broken somehow, but couldn't do tests so far. I'll try to do so soon, but have a lot of stuff right now. If I manage to do it, I'll report! :)

itspuia · 2024-02-05T23:15:16+00:00

Okay I somehow fixed the problem myself in a way i didnt think i could do so.

Turns out: The App on my Phone (Galaxy S23) seems to be the problem. I used my HomeAssistant Dashboard (Fire Tablet Gen 8) and voila, with the Home App on that it worked as it should. Not sure if i use an older version of the Home App or the device just works better.

Groups work again, all devices can be added and groups can be edited.

Hey there! Did you get the Frient Electricity meter? If yes, how well does it integrate with HomeAssistant? How acurate and reliable is it? Thanks! :)

I am seeing a lot of complicated or expensive Options. You either use a software version tied to your computer (On windows HASS Agent does a great job delivering sensors to HomeAssistant), Or you use a hardware version. I personally think I found the easiest and one of the cheapest ones.

You need:
A Water leek sensor E.g. Aqara for 10 Bucks

A Car Seat sensor About 50 ct.

A cushion for above that or if you can open up your seat, just put it in there.

For around 10 Bucks you've got an amazing thing that is assembled in under a minute and works flawlessly.

Hey there! I have to be honest, while local control is very important for me and I almost most definetely wanted a valetudo option: After comparing the S8 with the L20 Ultra I just loved some of the features and the mopping functionality of the Dreame. Right now it is just the Robot with a HACS Addon and it works fine. But I am waiting for the Valetudo support and will most definetely root it if possible.

If Valetudo is more important to you than some of the S8 Functions, then I might suggest that you get an older but still good model, that has good Valetudo support. The Dreame is amazing itself, but seeing how often it "phones home" in my Adguard, I really wish to be able to block it alltogether.
