A reset of the app (in my case myAudi for Homey) made the device available again, but the issue is in the dashboard: a device that is not available “crashes” the dashboard
In my case the device started working again, but if for some reason it’s not possible to get your device back your dashboard seems permanently broken
Likely not a Dashboard problem but Home connection. I have that frequently. Try to open the Homey app then and you will see connection error as well. If not then it‘s another problem. Only for my Dashboard it was slways a Homey issue not a Dashboard issue
Aha, good to know! In my case, i find it hard to find out which device/app is malfunctioning. My problem says to have a problem with reading “ onoff”, so it can be many apps/devices Any suggestions to narrow it further down?
Yes, in my case it was ‘charging’, that could only be my car. I’m not very familier with this, so I don’t know how to find out more about the device. Maybe there’s some ID on this page you can find in the Homey developer page
Is there no device that is offline or not working properly in another way? My “car” device was also offline on the devices page in Homey
Edit: I misunderstood the meaning of your post, Steven, my bad. Please ignore my comment.
I’m sorry, but I really think it’s not appropriate and disrespectful to ‘advertise’ that in Marcus’ Dashboard app topic?
I think you’d best start your own topic to discuss HA dashboards.
Just a thought!
Usually I would agree with you Peter, but in this case I see Steven’s attempt to share the video as inspiration, and not advertisement for HA. So I don’t mind
I can confirm that something like this is coming. I’ll have to see the video again, with sound this time to see how HA has solved this. Might give me some hints on how other smart people has implemented this
Hi, Thanks for the tip. Luckily i found the responsible device for the error, removing the device did the trick. However other ways of repairing a device would probably also work
Peter is right, Homey cannot stream video. So rapid refresh is the closest option.
Though, you mention rtsp:// urls. This would indicate that you want to add a link directly to the camera from the dashboard, without going through the Homey. Technically it is possible to add a dashboard widget with the HTML5 <video> element, and use the rtsp urls there. But this would probably not work. I’ve tried it with my cameras, but the <video> element typically requires ogg/vorbis video/sound format. Some browsers support other formats as well, but non of which is typically supported by surveillance cameras. To get this to work, you typically have to transcompile the video stream into a format supported by the browser, but I wouldn’t recommend running ffmpeg on the Homey
All of this said, if you have some kind of NVR already doing the transcompiling, this might work. Personally I’m planning on setting up Frigate on a seperate raspberry pi in the future. At that point I will probably be motivated to find a solution to get this working in the dashboard as well
I am trying to build my first dashboard, but struggle to get a similar view as the screenshots shared in this thread (capability percentage centered in large font). Has anybody an idea what is going wrong? I assume there must be something in the view settings section, but there is nothing there for me. Working in Chrome browser on Mac.
