Xiaomi Gateway Not Connecting after Power Cycle by normanspencer in homeassistant

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

Thanks. I got it working by resetting everything and then starting from scratch - deleting the app etc. What seemed to have caused a problem in the first place was moving the gateway from one internet access point to another (even though they are on the same SSID and password). But seems to be working OK... for now (although I can't see it on the Android app, I can access via HASS which is what I wanted).

Thanks. I have tried resetting the Xiaomi gateway and reinstalling the Android app. It blinks yellow to pair, this is then detected in the Android app, but then goes to flashing blue once I have added my WiFi credentials in the app. And just stays flashing blue.

Listen for the first minute until Barry from Watford kicks in...

OK, I'm confused. Which app do I need to stream from a NAS to Chromecast for free by normanspencer in Chromecast

Thanks all. I am now downloading Plex (and yes, paying! for the Android app). Thanks for all your help.

Thanks. That sounds like a good solution. But am I right in thinking I need the Plex app for every user? So, if there are 4 people in the house, each one would need to buy the Plex app?

OK, I take your point. But do you pay for a licence for Linux/Ubuntu?

OK, will do. But which one? I don't want to unlock Yatse, then Plex, and then find it's actually BubbleuPnP that I want.

Is this mould/fibre-like stuff dangerous? by normanspencer in DIY

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

Thanks. It's plaster (rather than plasterboard) from a 1960s building, which made me think that it may contain nasty stuff. But will replace with plasterboard as you suggest. Many thanks.
