@scenic radish I was all in on minidisc for quite a few years
scenic radish
Good times
lethal ice
There was a HiFi equipment chain called Tweeter, and they had the most permissive extended warranty policy of any store I've ever visited. Within 2 years, for any reason, you could bring it back and replace it with the same or equivalent available level model, AND they let you re-up the extended warranty for another 2 years for $50
clear ferry
I used to master minidisk for a friend in the late 90s, he had a SCSI to minidisk interface I think it was, but I had a much faster computer
lethal ice
Every 2 years I brought mine back "because it wasn't working anymore" and they basically gave me that new year's top of the line model for $50
It was a fantastic scam while it lasted. Can't imagine why they went out of business.

I'm still trying to come up with a good presence detection scheme. Right now I have phones connecting to wifi and HA app on phone doing basic GPS. But I want real room presence detection. Looked at room-assistant but can't figure out what I'd wear or have with me all the time that is going to keep a static BT mac address. Even my phone automatically randomizes it and shuts off beacon apps to save the battery.

I gave up and shoved a bunch of ecobee smart sensors
They don’t stop detection as fast as I would like but it’s good enough

Yeah, UniFi Protect is definitely the closest experience to what you'd expect from a hosted solution like Nest
I'm curious about their new doorbell cam.
last dirge
@lethal ice bro, didn't you learn your lesson from Wink?
scenic radish
i hear Bofa is adding a local API
lethal ice
I'm not sure what the connection is.
That's the whole point, isn't it? Self-hosting things.
In case it was unclear, the statement was that UniFi Protect, as an owned/fully local service that is not reliant on the cloud, has a lot of the bells and whistles and UX that you'd expect from a cloud service like Nest
Like @brisk glen pointed out, having a timeline you can scrub through with events and activity zones is not generally a thing you get with cheap IP cams
last dirge
or cheap cameras in general
brisk glen
Unifi protect is all local but uses their servers to negotiate the connection at first for their mobile apps
Why they call it the hybrid cloud
brisk glen
Indeed
last dirge
I'm running some 3 megapickle PoE cameras and a cheap NVR

I don't think so?
Alphabet is what we've always known as Google, they just changed their name to Alphabet and put their search engine as a subsidiary

hi all - are "groups" still a thing in HA or being phased out?
wet pilot
Groups are still a thing and are not going anywhere
proven pasture
that's a strong answer, thanks - not sure where i got that from, they seem pretty fundamental to me. No GUI option to config them though?
areas, scenes yes, groups - no, but maybe I'm missing it - just have to be configurated in yaml?
light hawk
It does seem strange that groups don't have a GUI!
Feels like they have been abandoned slightly.
Also - it's very annoying that a group button in Lovelace does not change the icon colour when on / off!
clear ferry
GUI 🤢
clever mortar
There's no group button in Lovelace 😉
Groups used to have a UI, but groups in the pre-Lovelace days had performance issues, so the UI editor was removed
light hawk
By group button, I mean a button card with a group as the entity.
proven pasture
all good though, thanks for the confirmation
I'll get back to tweaking my zigbee stuff and many other projects
clever mortar
I suspect now that the UI no longer uses groups an editor may return, but even some of the devs are confused about their purpose 😄
clever mortar
Apparently they've been replaced by light.group and the UI editor 🤷
light hawk
Should we be using areas instead of groups then?? Confused how I would group a bunch of devices otherwise!
clever mortar
You can use them all
light trout
That's does not make any sense, groups are for all entities, not just lights 🤷
clever mortar
Areas are good for things like rooms, groups for any collection of related things
clever mortar
Groups... do quite a bit 🙂
wet pilot
Mainly in automation
clever mortar
Yup, automations, automations, automations
light trout
HA is mainly automations (atleast IMO)
clever mortar
Yup, if you want a smart home there's easier ways of achieving that (at least until yet another cloud service implodes)
hushed basalt
I don't think my wife ever uses the front-end
She just yells at me if things don't work
We use voice commands a lot though
And I think dedicated hardware buttons are a must for a lot of things
proven pasture
i dumped automations.
zero automations now - all node red - love it.
but yes, just another way to automate things, i find it much easier to manage though but maybe not as user friendly - but automations in HA were becoming unmanageable
clever mortar
That's still automations, just not automation 😛
clever mortar
For me, home automation wins over smart home 100%
proven pasture
i think that's right, i want to do much more
things "just happen", so cool
i think i need to do more of the simple things.
e.g. open a cupboard door and an interior light goes on
and off when it's closed..
like a fridge - haha
hushed basalt
Being able to control AC remotely, even manually, has been a godsend
clever mortar
Yeah, our garden lights turn on and off automatically based on the back doors opening and closing. That took a while to get right, but it's awesome
light hawk
As other I have almost everything automated in some way or another. I have everything in node-red now, but my god, some of them get complicated!
E.g. kitchen lights - come on with sensor, but only at certain lux. But must also disable the sensor if I use the light switch (then enable sensor after period), and then of course set a scene when we have a kitchen disco! 😜😆
clever mortar
Weirdly complicated is so normal 😄

morning. ok REALLY stupid question. I've read the docs and it's not 100% clear to me if HA acts simply as an orchestrator for control using product clouds, or whether it actually replaces those clouds. Example - I have LIFX bulbs which I see have an integration. If installed and configured, do my bulbs no longer require connections to the LIFX cloud? My goal is twofold - 1. keep my data here 2. not to be left with paperweights if LIFX go bust. Thx
clever mortar
See the docs for your #integrations-archived
It varies
If it says Local then it's local, if it says Cloud then it's cloud...
https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/lifx/: IoT class: Local Polling
https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/lifx_cloud/ is too old to say, but the name tells you all 😉
worldly haven
Yeah - I read that thanks - I had interpreted the "cloud" flavour as "allowing" access to cloud scenes - could have been HA reading the cloud config and replicating... However - you've given me enough confidence (quickly!) to convince me to invest the effort in a poc. Much appreciated!
For idiots like me, an architectural overview picture may help 🙂
clever mortar
If there was one...
Each integration is different, and the dev may not even be sure if they'll work when they lose their related cloud service
This is why IMO you should go for things that are designed to be local - #zigbee-archived, #zwave-archived, etc

So my rpi3 just went down after attempting updating from 0.108.8 to 0.109.6, interface felt kinda slow too, knew it was in trouble when Portainer kept loading after hitting the update button. So, I want to get a NUC asap which should, hopefully, be a bit more reliable. Can't decide if I should go for the 6th gen i5 (used with 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD for 275) or a new 7th gen pentium (quad core J5005, with 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD should be around the same price in total).

Anyone know if it's possible to use a USB audio source with Mopidy? I was gifted a turntable with a USB output and I'd like to be able to make it indirectly network connected even though I know I'd need to control playback on the turntable itself
hushed basalt
It's not really a mopidy feature
You really are looking for a seperate application to stream from a sound source to something mopidy can consume
Step one is to plug it into a debian based computer/rpi and see if you can get it to work there first
scenic radish
Ah good to know, thanks.
hushed basalt
Then you need to take that pipe and put it into something like ffmpeg or snapcast or something
To turn it into a stream that mopidy can then play

My laptop runs Debian so I'll play around there first
The end goal is to be able to stream to my Google homes which I think would be possible via home assistant with MPD once I get everything else figured out

The error suggests it's not listening on the network interface or port you're trying to connect to. I don't see the medium post mention anything about configuring it, nor do I see anything in the other post that mentions configuring PulseAudio
try running pacmd list-modules and see if you have module-native-protocol-tcp listed
scenic radish
pi@pivpn:~ $ pacmd list-modules | grep native
name: <module-native-protocol-unix>
To get PulseAudio to show listening on tcp ports, I have to add load-module module-native-protocol-tcp auth-ip-acl=127.0.0.1;YOURNETMASKHERE/24 auth-anonymous=1 into /etc/pulse/default.pa then restart pulseaudio
scenic radish
i'm using pulseaudio because i don't have a USB sound card like the post suggests

Why did we move to 48k anyway?

In this case theoretically marginally better, but also causes huge problems with the what I'm assuming is the older standard of 44.1

Don't worry, 56K will be long soon 😛

Maybe it has something to do with syncing it to 24Hz video
hushed basalt
It's more a question of why did we go to 44.1
I know why, but 44.1 is the abomination, noy 48
orchid rose
But by the time we got 48, 44.1 was already well established. But it does seem like this is necessary for n*24Hz video. Just unfortunate we still haven't gotten rid of 44.1 then
This also seems to get very complicated with NTSC
hushed basalt
Video was established at 25/30 for a long time before 24fps video came out
Film has been 24fps for a long time though
44.1 is just for cds but to be honest who cares about cds anymore

50 and 60 is more accurate, but yeah

I know but for syncing on the display you'd be showing 50Hz (PAL) or 60Hz (NTSC)

orchid rose
Hehe, yeah
About the 44/48 I found an article on it and apparently 60k would have been the best of all worlds:
"Many in the U.S. television industry liked 60 kHz as a standard sample rate because it was free of leap frames and split frequencies, and it synchronized readily with all timing signals used in 60 Hz and 50 Hz television systems, 24 Hz film and the 13.5 MHz component digital video sample rate. The professional audio industry, however, considered it wastefully high, and there was a quantity of 48 kHz software extant in Europe. "
