0.93: Essent, AmbiClimate, VS Code debugging

Since updating to version 0.93 (and version 0.93.1), I am experiencing some strange behavior with Sonos devices exposed to HomeKit.

I have 9 Sonos Media Players and only 6 of them are being exposed to HomeKit. Every time I restart Home Assistant it exposes 6 different Media Players (it seems to randomly select 6 Media Players on HA restart). This had been working perfectly for months and months.

Part of my configure is listed below.

homekit:
filter:
include_domains:
- media_player
entity_config:
media_player.bird_room:
name: “Bird Room Sonos”
feature_list:
- feature: play_pause
media_player.garage:
name: “Garage Sonos”
feature_list:
- feature: play_pause

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

This little nugget of information is rather well buried. (i.e. that check config is broken).

How about actually updating the release notes themselves to indicate that this is the case; Many have religiously advocated the use of this facility in the past to help prevent inadvertent updates against bad configurations that it really does have a significant impact when it fails to work as expected and if not formally acknowledged will reduce people’s confidence in what they are being told.

Should users wait for an update, or go ahead and upgrade anyway?

Same here. Got the errors but data are correctly displayed and gathered.

you got us there…
to be sure, would you please confirm this means a legacy HA user can safely upgrade to .93 and still use:

extra_html_url:
  - /local/custom_ui/state-card-custom-ui.html
  - /local/custom_ui/state-card-tiles.html
  - /local/custom_ui/state-card-value_only.html
  - /local/custom_ui/custom-weather-card.html

is this something the dev team is working on, or something the user should do on their side?

that is not 100% true. Most of all customizations work perfectly fine in Lovelace. In fact, custom-ui has many possibilities Lovelace misses out on still, like full support for templating. Would be really appreciated if the team would consider keeping that supported going forward.

again, that sounds truly great, is there anything the user can do, or do we have to wait for the dev-team to do this.

thanks.

There’s a card for templates in Lovelace. 📝 100% Templatable Lovelace Configurations

Has there been a change in the “Unused entities” tab ?
I mainly use picture elements cards so all my entities used to show up there.
Since updating, only ones that are not on any of my picture element cards are in the unused entities tab.
I guess this is sensible, but is not the case for conditional cards etc, they are still there
Am I missing something?

I get a lot of Xiaomi error logs since the Update to 0.93.1

Got exception while fetching the state: Unable to discover the device 192.168.200.28

After a few minutes the device is available again

roborock vacuum ?? its stable here

Clicking on 0.93.1 “release notes” in the Hassio dashboard takes you to this blog. Where may I find the specific fixes in 0.93.1? I think I am only seeing the original .93 information here, except when extracting bits here and there in the comments.

Also, why was @w1ll1am23’s critical PubNub Wink component update ( #23710 ) not mentioned in the release notes? It was in fact merged into .93.0.

EDIT: nevermind about the .93.1 release notes. I see it was just added. Thanks. s

After a few restarts seems to be stable again

No data from my Netatmo weather station since ~4h now.
Just checked log file, and I get:

After a restart, Netatmo data are here again.
Something is definitely going on with this new release regarding Netatmo integration.

Likewise for me with the Google Assistant component … I’ve had to revert 0.92.2 in order to sync.

I use custom_ui for changing icon colors, sometimes based on conditional logic. Is there a better way to do that without custom_ui, short of implementing it separately for all cards? The template card looks like it could handle the logic, but not colors directly.

guys with google issues? are you running 93.0 or 93.1 ?
in 93.0 , indeed if you exposed the mediaplayer, that sync was not possible
fixed in 93.1

Probably requires the the dev of the custom-ui to do that part.

Ah … you are correct. It’s now working with 93.1. Thank you

Please forgive my ignorance, but is Hassio for 0.93 not yet available? I see that other hassio users are on 0.93.1, but I’m on 0.92.2 and I do not have an upgrade option on the Hass.io dashboard.

I’m on HassIO and it’s prompted me to upgrade up to 0.93.1, so might just be you. Reboot the host?

Yeah, I rebooted. Guess I need to plow through the log to try to understand why I’m not getting the upgrade prompt .

Ok, I manually updated to 93.1 using ssh. Now I’m getting a prompt to “update” back to the older version 92.2. Any help to understand what is going on?
