Probably the podcast, bit hard to have them show their config on that.
I’ve tested the reload scenes feature is working well for me, I’ve managed to give it a go by calling the scene.reload service in the dev tools.
Would it be possible to add a ‘Reload Scenes’ in the webinterface alongside “Reload Core, Reload Groups, Reload Automations, Reload Scripts”? This may already be planned but I thought I’d ask for it if it’s not. Thanks

How do I set up the new google calendar ?
I tried this but get a config error - Platform not found: calendar.google
Docs link in the release blog point to google TTS
calendar:
platform: google
client_id: YOUR_CLIENT_ID
client_secret: YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET
Don’t know, my calendar integration is gone - just getting errors in the log. But didn’t have time to play with them yet.
According to release notes, there are some breaking changes but they should be limited to automations in regard to calendar, not calendar itself.
Yes I read that and think its just the google calendar docs not updated, if you look at the caldav ones that’s where I got the idea of calendar: platfrom google. Guess we’ll have to wait until they are updated
Caldav with icloud has been broken for months now. So I don’t know what is wrong with it. Hopefully google calendar doesn’t face the same fate.

This is where I saw the change (above)
After upgrading to 0.97, the ROKU platform is creating the following error:

My setup is: Hassbian (Buster), Python 3.7
Under Beta Fixes I see @pvizeli made a change
Anyone know how I can fix this?
Agreed 100%. And I think it goes beyond the upgrade examples. The HA documentation in general is more like a programmers reference guide, often showing the minimum amount necessary to get the idea across (i.e. assuming that someone is quite knowledgeable about HA, it’s syntax, etc).
I’ve been running HA for over a year and still struggle considerably with even simple stuff - usually relying on finding other forums discussions, or digging through github to find example configurations.
With 1.0 quickly approaching, the massive publicity will draw massive numbers of new people, and the forums are going to be flooded with simple questions that could have been answered via more complete examples in the documentation.

Got my google calendars working again, just used the original
google:
client_id: YOUR_CLIENT_ID
client_secret: YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET
in config yaml and restarted and got a notification about setting up calendars, copied the code and it went to google to authorise the connection. No idea why it stopped working but works now
“Brandon” was interviewed. They typically have a guest on their podcast on youtube
shell_command is crashing my HA. I see other mentions of something similar here: Shell_command crashes interface on > 0.95
any idea what could be causing this?
I have the same issue, in the logging I see the following:
2019-08-08 18:05:19 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.core] Error doing job: Task exception was never retrieved
Traceback (most recent call last):

for state in filter_history[self._entity]
KeyError: 'sensor.power_consumption1'
This was working before the update
The config part is the following:
- platform: filter

entity_id: sensor.power_consumption1
filters:
- filter: time_throttle
window_size: 00:0:15
precision: 3
I don’t understand the UniFi presence detection changes. After upgrade, devices on my unifi network all show as away. What needs to be changed in my config for this latest update?
EDIT: Looks like it just adds all the devices by name on the router so I will have to change the names of some of my entities that I had pre-configured.

I wonder if this renaming only occur if you have a UniFi router?
I have a couple of UniFi access points and UniFi switches and use pfSense as the edge router that hands out DHCP leases to clients. Tracking these devices by MAC address has worked really well for some time, I hope that continues to be the case.
I have a USG and that is the integration that gets all the names and other connection info. The change is that all items in that router now show as device trackers along with the name I assigned that device in the USG.
Good for you. I’m restarting it now for 3rd time…
That part of the configuration is same as it was before. Only thing I removed was password part for Google Maps tracking (as per breaking change in 0.97), but… calendar is still not working.

One thing I noticed is you’re using the custom component Google calendar, I’m just using the built in one.
Just updated to 0.97
Getting lots of errors for some (not all) of my media in helpers/entity.py complaining about missing entity-id for my media’s various switches such as “repeat switch”, “do not disturb switch”.
Here is an example:

WOW!
After upgrading I now have a gazillion device_trackers!
How do we white-/blacklist device_trackers with the new Unifi tracker?
Right now I have a device_tracker for every single connection (and servers with 2 or more connections are presenst multiple times!)
