You can use an helper to toggle from one to another and use an automation to trigger it (or a simple switch on your dashboard).

But if I were you, I would use a community add-on as dual AC isn’t a niche, I guess it will keep being updated in future. I’ve been using some community add-on for a couple of years and none have been dropped til now.

Instead of using a community add-on, you can create two generic thermostat. https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/generic_thermostat/

i’m willing to try to help you but to be honest, it is far from my limited knowledge… and i’m also not english native so i do sometimes struggle to understand some specifc docs…

That being said, looks like exemple given at https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/voice/intent-recognition/template-sentence-syntax/ isn’t inside _common.yaml

# Example light_HassTurnOn.yaml
language: "en"

also i just realised that this is developer document which could explain why _common.yaml modifications would be wiped out after an update.

I just had a look to the non developer doc and it suggest intent_script is to be added to configuration.yaml and intent to custom_sentences/<language> as shown here https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/conversation/

# Example configuration.yaml entry
intent_script:

# Example temperature.yaml entry
language: "en"
intents:

Not 100℅ sure…

Your intent script might need to be a bit different using

speech:
   text:

As shown below https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/intent_script/

   intent_script:
    CustomOutsideHumidity:
      speech:
       text: "It is currently {{ states('sensor.outside_humidity') }} percent humidity outside."

Aldo have a look at https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/voice/intent-recognition/template-sentence-syntax/ for the common.yaml

Can’t recall which video (maybe “year of the voice chapter 5”) but devs talked about it on official youtube Channel

here is my config yaml for climate. added hint for your case but i never had heat pump, does your heat pump only heat or does it also cool? exemple here is ok if only heat. If yours heat/cool, try some of the hacs thermostat addon. A quick search led me to this https://community.home-assistant.io/t/generic-thermostat-switch-between-heating-and-cooling/420053 which point to https://github.com/swingerman/ha-dual-smart-thermostat but i know they are more hacs addon for thermostat, you may need to search which is good for your use if the one above doesn’t suit your needs

climate:
  - platform: generic_thermostat
    name: Thermostat Chambre (Riscaldamento)
    heater: switch.radiateur_chambre (device to toggle your heat pump)
    target_sensor: sensor.sonde_chambre_temperature (your temp sensor)
    min_temp: 12
    max_temp: 21
    ac_mode: false
    target_temp: 19
    cold_tolerance: 0
    hot_tolerance: 0.1
    min_cycle_duration:
      seconds: 300
    keep_alive:
      minutes: 3
    initial_hvac_mode: "off" (set this to heat if you want it to be active when HA start/reboot)
    away_temp: 12
    precision: 0.1

If I recall correctly, chances are they are coming this year

Unless you want some specific schedule, there is no need for automation, add config to yaml and it is good to go

Just use generic thermostat https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/generic_thermostat/

Smart home junkie just made a video about it https://youtu.be/o3yZWD_sFIE

Will try that soon

If I were you, I would try to disable some/all of the image features your TV has in settings. Could be those settings that create soap opera effect.

I’m not 100% sure but I have always read that playing movie at higher frame rate than source doesn’t make video looking better. To get best results, it is adviced to have your screen frame rate matching the one from source. That being said, can’t tell you how to achieve this on linux since I only watch stuff on TV using shield TV as a player.

I don’t use matrix so cannot answer with precision but you can create an automation and use vacuum state as trigger (ex: from cleaning to dock) and use notify platform to send to matrix whatever message you want

I just tried and I think they are limitations on numerous android OS.

It isn’t exactly a widget but what I have been able to do is create a shortcut when long pressing home assistant app icon on my phone

To do so, go to home assistant app settings/compagnon app/shortcut Give it a name and description, not too short according to documentation (see below), next add under dahsboard

/lovelace/home?conversation=1

https://companion.home-assistant.io/docs/integrations/android-shortcuts/

Edit: added another screenshot from settings (sorry in french but that should help). This was just a quick test, this is why I named it assist_widget. You can also change icon type

I’m no expert so not easy to answer to your questions with many details. What I know is that z2m support more devices than zha, get updates more frequently, can be running separately from ha meaning that if ha goes down for any reason, you would be still able to control your ZigBee devices (I personally run it with HA), for some devices z2m expose more informations, also you can ask support for devices.

I said it is better because it is a general consensus from users but if zha works good enough for you then you can stick to it but if you encounter limitations/problems, z2m might be the solution. It is easier to start with zha but in long term, z2m offer more capabilities.

No particular tricks, maybe it’s a one of the limitation of zha. As an exemple, I recently replace a bulb by a new one and old one was repurpose somewhere else in the house, the only thing I did was to rename old bulb and added the new one with old bulb name.

Cannot really answer your questions but if you ever swap to z2m and you keep the exact same friendly name you are using in zha, automations won’t need to be updated. I know it would be still a pain to re-pair but z2m is better than zha, so you will gain in the long term.

Thanks

Damn, if I had more electronics knowledge I would have build one. Does it actually integrate with home assistant?
