"It's not stalking, if it's your family." Had to laugh too hard for this one.
this is the best video explanation i ever saw in this topic...eventhough its outdated..i loved the way you explained...it would be helpful if you make a updated video on this ...as their are soo many changes in lovelace
Hello Dr. I have come to you as the last resource after reading all home assistant forums and try everything for weeks already. there is a very common problem with hass.io installation, the situation is that hass.io either work at the first time with no problem or does not, in which case is very hard to get it working. Usually, the problem goes around connection issues, this is not a problem for hassbian, which i can use with no problem. Currently, there is no clear answer in the forums, a video addressing this issue will be of great help for a lot of people trying to get into home assistant and feeling stuck in the first step
Oh man, as soon as I’m back from my summer holiday I’ll start with Lovelace. Can’t wait to get back home 🤪
Great video, i have been playing with Lovelace for a while (2 weeks) and this really helped to cover some of the elements I wasnt quite sure of. Thanks matey.
This is awesome, thankyou so much for putting this together!
I was waiting for this tutorial and fullfill all my expectations, thanks for another great video DrZzs, it´s time to work on lovelave...
Good luck! You'll be up and running in no time!
Thanks . Great video. Now its time to start my Lovelace journey.
Thanks!
it's a great time to get started!
Hey big brother, thanks for another great video. A lot of info to digest so I might have to watch this a few hundred times before I try this....but great stuff. This channel is really awesome!
ha!
Well, when you're ready, it'll be here?
Oh, and thanks for throwing in the bit about the migration tool. Totally didn't know that it existed. Now I can just tweak my existing UI and make it prettier.
I would like to see you take on the challenge of creating a "score light" with Home Assistant. Set your team, and when they score, specific lights flash team colors. I've been trying to figure this out for years and the (now defunct) ESPN/IFTTT integration never worked well.
hi doc, about mdi icons, search the google chrome extensions for "MaterialDesignIcons Picker
" and you get an easy to use top bar icon with all of them easy searchable and pickable :)
Perfect for getting started! Thank you great video!
Thanks for the video.
Can you please start your videos with a brief description of what you are covering (what is "lovelace"?), why you use it (why is "lovelace" better than X?), and then go into the technical details of how to get it up and running?
Just check the Lovelace UI page: www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/
Thanks. I meant that in general, it is easier to focus on the technical aspects of getting something up and running if you first know what the goal is.
It depeds. Lovelace is still in experimental state, so it expects that you know what it is when you want try it. This is not a review, only howto.
I can’t wait to start doing this! Great video!
Thanks. It's a real improvement over the old UI
the link doesnt work for the examples where did it move to so i can see.. as i need help with buttons etc
other 10 out 10 Like the way to use name: and the width stops the ... learnt something thanks again
Small question: how did you get these tabs in your left menu? I only have the default. But i want the Configurator there ^^
I have looked online, can not find out why my images (.png, .gif)appear in hassio ha lovelace ui as black and white? Any insight?
Thanks for the video. I've already switched to Lovelace UI, but even it I found some usefull details in your video.
I've used empty config file, as the migration script did not work with my setup.
cool!
I'm really close to making the switch permanent.
Dr Zzz - I can’t seem to get my jpeg images appearing in Lovelace from my binary_sensor (Bayesian sensor) device tracking. I just get a blank (aside from header of ‘who’s home?’) glance card. What’s your config in terms of getting images in your front end for this type of thing. FYI, I keyed in as you have done in this vid as an entity-filter card. Thanks in advance.
i have hassos runing on a vm dont know from where can i acccess configuration.yaml anybody can help????
I installed the latest version of HassOS but configurator is extremely slow, is this typical? I installed the 32bit recommended for the pi 3, should i have installed the 64bit?
Great video with simple awesome advice as always, but just one issue. Not enough Scarlet and Grey!
Booooooo
Fantastic video as always, Have you checked out Tileboard ? im struggling with setup and hoping its on your video to do list
question: Google Home Mini can use at offline or another way to use without internet? Thanks
Great job . Hope some day you´ll make a video about how to configure volumio . From Spain "hasta luego "
Good job. Thank you.

One question: Does migrating to Lovelace UI change the Dashboard? (The Dashboard is what I, and my family, use on our Android tablets to control everything--Not my PC)
Wow, lovelace migration works awesome, great job people
Thank Franck and Dale when you see them in Discord. :)
Always great videos. One thing - Did I miss where you said how to access the Lovelace interface?
Doh!
No, you didn't miss it. I left it out, and not on purpose.
the good news is you just add /lovelace/ to the end of your normal HA URL.
That should do it.
Sorry about that. Totally forgot that important step. Oops.
Still work with the new version that custom lovelace?
How do you track a device?
Dude! You are hilarious. And very knowledgeable
Thanks!
Is lovelace better than the existing ui
You are AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you again!
you're very welcome!
Love the video. Watched you for a while now. Can you explain how to get those Emojis? Those are sick (as the kids say!)! I've already downloaded some emojis in .jpg but your's look really clean.
Hi DrZzs
Awesome video (as usual). Watched it several times.
Since a lot of different items are covered in 20 mins is it possible to have some sort of bookmarks in the video in order to be able to find specific snippets easily?
In any case, awesome.
I have a question about Darksky. I like the forecast card. There is one item missing that I think is relevant. This is the wind direction.
The website places an arrow next to the wind speed. The card in HA does not.
Other useful info would be 'Feels like temperature' and 'UV index'
Is there any way to get these items in the card?
Thank you.
P.S. Learned a lot from your videos. Keep 'em coming.
Cool! Thanks
MAXX HEADROOM!!! I love it
Great stuff, DrZzs! How do I assign an image to the device trackers (as shown in your entity-filter glance card)? Is this taken from the existing yaml I have for ‘HA version 1’?!? I just have a silhouette for each person in Lovelace and want to personalise it.
Yes DrZzs I would like to know too.
You need to put the images in the config/www folder. If you don't have a www folder, then create one in the config folder. I don't recall the constraints but if I remember right I had to make my images 200x200 pixels. Once you have the images in the www folder, you will need to edit your known_devices.yaml file to reference the image name for the device. Here is a sample of one from mine where I've
Child1:
hide_if_away: false
icon:

Hope that helps.
Chris Edwards - Thanks for the response. I had all of that done. Managed (just now) to sort it. After a couple of weeks of help from various forums someone suggested putting quotes around the state_filter (“on”). This simple thing got it working! Appreciate your response though.
Thanks!
thank you very much - great video
Thanks!
Glad it helps!
Thanks DrZzs
You are so welcome my friend!
Blind me, that’s quite a task to organice the desktop! I used HA as a hub for Apple HomeKit, wanted to use home assistant fully, but after looking at this, think I will keep the dirty and messy desktop as stick to Apple Homekit. Then I don’t have that menu option Hass.io.
oh it is much much different now then it was when this video was new.
Okay... will dig your see how it works. I think that if I get this to work I will ditch HomeKit. Would love to end up with one of these dashboard without so much effort.
My initial set up, which I did about 3 years ago is still running the version of home assistant that does not have that hassio menu. (On a Synology, Docker). But the Home assistant version I am running seems to be the latest one. Guess more digging...
how does your device.tracker work?
Can Home Assistant control HomeKit devices?
Great video but I only use homeassistant to allow me to use HomeKit on my Sonoffs and other things
That's cool. Some people don't use the HA UI at all.
For the rest of us, now we've got LoveLace :)
nice!!!! as if you heard me thru the Internets!!!!!! haha .. thx a lot Sir
Awesome! Thanks!
You're welcome!
Hope it helps
It’s looking good :)
Thanks. I still have a lot I want to do with it. Making UI changes is SO much better now than it was pre-Lovelace.
How do I add Tasmota Basic devices to Lovelace as I have lost them all since the upgrade?
probably the best explanation for getting started with the newer UI is Juan's video: www.juanmtech.com/home-assistant-new-user-interface-and-ui-editor/
Another great video!
Thanks!
The home-assistant-lovelace-galle... link is broken.
sorry. Thanks for the update. I'm not sure who was maintaining that. Most cool Lovelace stuff can be found in the Home Assistant Community Store, under Plugins.
Go BLUE!
Well, used the migration tool, got the ui.lovelace file, spend over an hour setting it up to my needs, and...... nothing. Still the same UI as before the migration. Did I miss something ?
Nevermind, clicking the "try out lovelace"button on the info screen did the trick. :)
Excellent!
My favorite kind of problems are the ones that solve themselves :)
Do I need to have a server with this software running? I have 1 tasmota device and I want to control it from everywhere and multiple devices with ease.
You don't have to, but it's probably better that way. Home Assistant is the "server" that I run that brings all my devices together.
I am unable to find the "local" folder, so is it necessary to make a local folder in our homeassistant?
it's confusing, when you point to "local" in HA you put the files in the "www" folder. In other words the www folder is the local folder. I don't know why.
ok Thanks!!
Tracking your family is indeed not stalking, but it's called wallet / creditcard abuse protection :P
Amen!
wow. Thanks !!
I want to know how to connect home assistant to Google Home mini!?? Thanks ZZZz
Easiest way to do it is to sign up for the Home Assistant Cloud. It's free (for now) but will eventually cost $5/mo. With HA Cloud all you do is go to the Google Skill store and install the Hassio skill. Very similar to the Alexa install (not the media player install the older video from about December).
The Gallery is not there??
it may have moved since Lovelace became official.
Just do some "Home Assistant lovelace" searches and you'll find some nice examples.
how do you start your first code?
there's an example on the Lovelace docs page. Or you can use the migration tool addon for hassio.
I just started from a blank file. There are only a couple things you need at the start, the rest is all the entities. It does need to be named ui-lovelace.yaml and it needs to by in your /config/ folder.
great intro
i dont se lovelace under the addons :-(
Sorry, ya, things have changed. Lovelace is now the default UI. And there is a more user-friendly way to customize it now too. Here's a link to a good guide - ua-cam.com/video/J7YWxROlmh4/v-deo.html
Hope that helps!
awesome channel!
Thanks!
I'll try to make it More Awesomer.
Oh, Ada Lovelace ... I was thinking Linda
ya, me too at first. Great minds thinking alike again ;)
Can you do a video on device tracking /home presence please. I can not figure it out to save my life!
ha, ya, that is causing a lot of people grief. I'll look for the best solutions and work on putting something together.
Do you have iphone? The new HA app for iOS 12 is supposed to be better for location tracking.
@@DrZzs no sadly. I have android devices. I do want to thank you for teaching me about tasmoto! Also, I can't figure out how to have the map show on the main view.
Am I the only one that's getting a split second delay between the audio and the video?
I wanted to watch this video but feel like it’s giving me motion sickness...
I'm getting the delay as well. It's freaky as well to see a talking head...
Not sure what i'm going wrong here.
I have the sonoff basic wired like this.
imgur.com/dT6mdvR
(key) GPIO14?? set as switch1
now...regardless of which switchmode action setting I use....the light only turns off or on after flipping the lightswitch twice.
flip it down then up....light comes on.....then flip it down then up...light goes off
my intent is that I want the standard light switch to function as it would without the inclusion of a sonoff but then also be able to use the sonoff, H.A./MQTT capabilities.
Your rocker switch is behaving like a push-button. I would expect switchmode0 to be the best for that situation, but switchmode1 or switchmode2 should also work. The rest are for push-buttons. Regardless, it should be changing behavior when you change switchmodes.
What are you seeing in the tasmota console when you flip the switch or change the switchmode?
@@DrZzs There are two screws on the side of the standard light switch....not the green ground terminal. I have the GPIO wired to one terminal on the side and ground wired to the other terminal on the side....maybe I have that wired incorrectly.
Here is the output from the terminal.
23:39:11 CMD: switchmode1 0
23:39:11 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/RESULT = {"SwitchMode1":0}
23:39:19 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/RESULT = {"POWER":"ON"}
23:39:19 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/POWER = ON
23:39:22 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/RESULT = {"POWER":"OFF"}
23:39:22 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/POWER = OFF
23:39:24 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/RESULT = {"POWER":"ON"}
23:39:24 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/POWER = ON
23:39:26 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/RESULT = {"POWER":"OFF"}
23:39:26 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/POWER = OFF
23:39:29 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/RESULT = {"POWER":"ON"}
23:39:29 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/POWER = ON
23:39:31 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/RESULT = {"POWER":"OFF"}
23:39:31 MQT: stat/sonoff-lamp/POWER = OFF
I suspect that when the switch is flipped the GPIO notices the state change and thus sends a single...and then when the switch is flipped the other way the GPIO isn't seeing anything so nothing happens....then when I flip it up again, the GPIO notices the state change. So its only turning on or off when the switch is flipped up. Up for on, Up for off.
Maybe if I wired one GPIO to one of the terminals on the light switch and if there was another GPIO and I wired it to the other terminal.
This isn't a deal breaker really. I'd like the traditional light switch to work as it would without the inclusion of the sonoff, but I'm not married to it.
I've tried switchmode1 0; switchmode1 1; switchmode1 2; switchmode1 3; and also moved each of the two wires to the other terminal on the switch. the output stays the same regardless. It may very well be that the traditional light switch is simply not the right type of switch to use in this situation. I loved your video with the capacitive touch switch and I had the sonoff basic to just decided to try to use the traditional light switch since it was already there.
another bit of information. i'm using the sonoff basic model that has the 5 holes just behind the output terminals on the sonoff. i'm using the hole labeled "key" as the GPIO14 and the GND near it for the ground. I read somewhere that this was the new location for GPIO14 and it is definitely receiving a signal to make this light switch "kinda" work....but a lot of this stuff is assumptions and know from my own knowledge.
What is this "computer" voice assistant?
You can change the wake word for Alexa to one of 4 things: Alexa, Echo, Amazon, or Computer. I changed my to Computer in the spirit of Star Trek NG.
Go Blue!
GO BLUE!
@@DrZzs : Go Bucks
Just a glance until I get home but does this video help out guys who does not have Hass.io? .. I do not have hass.IO.. I will watch the full video when I get home tonight
Yes. It’s for all of Home Assistant. You won’t be able to use the migration tool, but every thing else will be the same.
still on the road but do I need to add any files in the www/custom_components folder or any place else example any js file?... maybe I need to start using hass.io
Ha with snips documentation please!
I've looked at snips a very little bit. I'll try to learn more and get something out about it.
thanks a lot!
wait what ?
are you using hass.io on windows machine ?????
Danish Hussain(OMEX) it’s not actually on a Windows machine. It’s either in a VM or it’s own separate system. The interface is a webpage displayed in the browser.
I’ve noticed that in your videos you simply say “Computer...” to do things. How you accomplish this?
In the Alexa app you can change the "Wake Word". There are 4 options. Alexa, Echo, Amazon, or Computer. So far you can't customize the wake word beyond those choices. I like "Computer" cuz it makes me feel like Captain Picard.
DrZzs that’s what I thought. I use Google Home Mini. So I’m stuck with “Hey Google” or “Ok Google”. Hopefully they offer some other options in the future.
how do you guys setup voice assistant? should hass machine to be accessible from internet?
Mine is accessible from the internet with an open port of Hassio. I don't remember if that's necessary or not.
The way I do it is by using the HA Cloud service. It's $5 a month, but makes it super simple. There are forum posts discussing how to do it without HA Cloud of $5/mo is too much for you.
Here's how I set mine up:
ua-cam.com/video/DbQcFgEA7hw/v-deo.html
It's an older video, but I think it still works that way.
Good Luck!
Go Blue.....
til:: due breaking changes video content is obsolate
I'm sure this video is full of great content, but the floating head was too much to take so I stopped after a couple minutes. Please reconsider this choice.
What a flying head 😂
Thanks. It was a fun gimmick for a while. I don't do it much anymore. I still have the green turtleneck, but I only wear it when we go out to fancy dinners.
@@DrZzs this is very original, I replied after 2 years ahah, how are you
Really helpful, thank you! But your icons are so 1998 ;-)
ha!
I'M so 1998!
@@DrZzs I like the icons. I just can't get mine to look that good. What size are your pictures? I'm trying to use the apple Memoji emojis and I they get squished.
stil way too inflexible, take a look at the grafana dashboard, this is the sort of flexibilty i wish home assistant has. Everythings works inside the browser, you don't have to do all this shit in some sort of yaml files...
Hi! Great vid. Would you mind share your .yaml?
Dude. Jif? What the heck. It’s GIf
Ya right. Next you’ll tell me Meme isn’t pronounced ‘maymay’
DrZzs lol. Hey thanks for being rad. Use your teachings heaps.
Popped up in my recommended videos, but I had to quit after a minute because the floating head is so distracting.
Sorry. You're not the only one who feels that way. Turns out it would be easier for me to not do the floating head thing too. So I'm doing it less now than I used to. And I'm doing WAY less jumping around the screen. It's an evolution I guess. I'm learning how to do a better job at making useful content in a way that is best for me and for the folks that might watch.
Thanks for the feedback!
@@DrZzs Thanks for the reply! And I apologize if I came off snarky. Have to give you props for putting in so much time on here. It's easy for us users to just spout off any little thing we do/don't like. Will definitely check out more.
Great video. Is there a reason we need to see your head, adds nothing to the video.
i stalk my wife all the time
It would be easier to watch these videos they didn't always have your floating head in them
Noted.
They’d be a lot easier to make without that too. Trouble is now some people expect it and like it. I also think it is often helpful to see the person that is talking when you’re learning something. There’s the non-verbal aspect that communicates more info and it adds some entertainment value. But that doesn’t appeal to everyone for sure.
I’ll compromise with you. I’ll leave my face out of some scenes and I’ll try to put it in the same place on the screen so you can just put your thumb over my face.
Deal?
@@DrZzs Without the floating head, it's just another tutorial video.
@@DrZzs I like the floating head. :) It makes it look like you are talking to us. :)
Maybe I'm just older but I still compute facial expressions....heh
