    Having the scenes kick off while setting it up was the reason I never used scenes. Spousal approval was 0/5 so I just did automations to change things. This is a big improvement.

    • @tommythebiker3081
      @tommythebiker3081 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      Same here, I use scripts instead of scenes and then run the appropriate scripts using automations. Honestly it will be too much of an hassle to convert each and every script to a scene now.

    The scene improvement is nice but not what I was hoping for. I'd like to be able to edit everything about the scene without triggering any devices. And have a preview mode to be separate from editing alltogether.

      Seems pretty easy, make sure the entities exist and then don't verify anything after that until we go into preview mode.

      @cirkutpersonal 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I have a ''Good night" scene in HomeKit that activates my home alarm (among setting lights and thermostats), and I explicitly use HomeKit scenes because I can edit them without triggering them. I definitely understand if the technical implementation makes that not nearly as simple, but this 'update' is completely useless to me until that time. I couldn't edit that scene during the day if using HA as my wife and kids open our our exterior doors quite often and I don't want to cause the blaring alarm to randomly go off.

    • @pawel5795
      @pawel5795 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      Precisely. This doesn't really solve anything, you're still triggering the scene if you're tinkering with what the scene actually does.

    • @TheHellis
      @TheHellis 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I don't understand why this is a problem in scenes but for automations and scripts you can set them up without activating.

    I have scene issues, and this update solved them. I don't use many scenes, but they're easier to use when you've got scripts for lighting and nerd custom "scenes" for certain light modes.

    • @dominicpinchott7432
      @dominicpinchott7432 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      For me, the Nano Leaf integration does not work well to change the lighting. It does work as part of a scene though, so I have a handful of scenes. I'd prefer they were all automations, but for now they have to be scenes. This is a good improvement.

Anyway the blindes - I noticed (during day light) that that looks pretty cool. Could you please share a link what the makers of the blinds is? It looks that are solid and do not allow the light through if they are close. And I also looks that they place in a frame.

Tried to remove the ShellyforHass but when installing the official shelly integration it always goes back to shellyforhass. I could not find any changes in the relaese 2024.12. But it does not work anymore. So I'm stuck with the older version :-( I hope someone can help

    Never really got the points of scene myself, except to save a bunch of states on the fly through automation, and that is sadly still not working the way I wish it did. But I did open a WTH for it (WTH can’t scene restore the state of off entities), who knows, maybe they'll fix that too! The combined voice features seem pretty neat, I might try that out actually, this may be compelling enough at this point to give voice an actual try

    I'm not sure where my UGI gas meter is, the read point is a little black wireless thing by the power meter. It must be in the basement ceiling.

    • @dylan_00
      @dylan_00 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      That's a thing already! I've pulled Gemini in (using the free Flash 1.5 model), it's a big improvement over nothing. Not to mention the ability to use the local voice agent, and kick over to the LLM if needed, is huge. It means that custom sentence triggers now work!
      To set it up, just look for the "Google Generative AI" integration. It's free, but I believe they use your data for training purposes

    I lost all hope with HA about a year ago. I have a home that works, so I SKIP all updates. The many times I tried to update I found myself screwed and spending many hours TRYING to just get back to where it worked. Al lot of times even reloading a backup didn't work! For years I was doing great, I have 17 Z-wave, 86 Zigbee and Many Many EPSHOME devices.... I really wish I could move my HA forward, but it crashes and crews everything up when I try... So - Never again....

  • @metoo7587
    @metoo7587 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

    The order should be reversed, first to the LLM which will clean up your command (when it concludes that it must be a HA command), eventually translate it to English if you choose to use any other language, and then makes sure that what is sent back to the HA assistant is 100% in line with what HA will understand.
    Every so often, spoken words are incorrectly interpreted (STT), i.e. "turn on kitchen" becomes "turn on kitten". The Home Assistant assist has no mechanism to correct your command based on AI, as do most of the available LLM's - and quite well too. They will understand that you probably said, or indented to say "kitchen" and then in turn formulate a correctly formatted HA command and send it back to HA assist; "Turn on kitchen light" even adding the missing, but assumed entity or device name.

    When you use TTS you need the whole sentence and it can take long in low power servers for local llm, but with streaming a LLM reponse of 3 or 4 tokens/s can make the assistant as fluid as Alexa, for example.
