2024.10: Heading in the right direction

Blog

EDIT: A other post it could be related to Alexa Media Player update. Someone have a reboot loop. Disabled the integration and it was solved.

Here my HAOS is restarting every time.

now, 14min ago, 25min ago, 37 min ago, 48 min ago
So almost every 10min in between.

Love the new heading/subtitle cards!
This finally lets me create a table-like overview card of (in my case, input_number) entities and their values without having to put actual entity cards (those input_numbers are only modified by automations).
I used a Markdown card before, but it lacked the right-alignment for the values.

Using subheading-cards works perfectly!

You donā€™t need ha core running to see the logs

Follow the issue that has been opened on GitHub.

After adding /srv/homeassistant/bin to path in the SystemD service file HA core 2024.10 runs as expected and I had no timeout to install dependencies. Nice!
Unfortunately I cannot use the |assist_satellite.announce` action with my M5-stack-atom but I might have miss-understood something.
In the developer tools when I click to select an entity I read no match found.
Maybe it is because it uses a speaker instead of a media player, anyway nice update!

TelldusLive (local) works on 2024.10.1.

The automatic repairs worked beautifully, but had to revert to 2024.9.3 from backup as TelldusLive (local) stopped working.

2024-10-03 09:51:42.583 WARNING (SyncWorker_36) [tellduslive] Failed request: HTTPConnectionPool(host='192.168.20.37', port=80): Max retries exceeded with url: /api/sensors/list?includeValues=1&includeScale=1&includeIgnored=0 (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7f4d2ad42300>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 113] Host is unreachable'))

Couldnā€™t find in the changelog what would have made TelldusLive not work after upgrade. After restoring, all was working again.

Entity cardā€™s history graph color has changed to purple. The new color does not looking good, imho total ugly :frowning:

With subtitle cards, I have it now looking like this:

Iā€™ve had the same issue, on the console something (I canā€™t remember what) was running out of memory. I have restored from a VM backup to 2024.9.3 and everything is back to normal.

Service/Action tts.google_cloud_say stopped working completely. It seems to be a side-effect of the enhnacement to setup Google Cloud integration with GUI.

Commenting out configuration.yaml configuration and setting up Google Cloud integration from scratch in GUI does not work neither.

I am getting following errors in logs:

CastMediaPlayerEntity._quick_play Failed: Failed to execute quick play https://ā€¦mp3. (home_assistant_error)

[NR] CastMediaPlayerEntity._start_app Failed: Failed to execute start app CC1AD845.

yep

Find a quick solution for the changed graph/line/bar color, wich is now blue/purble. If you would rather have the old gray color for the statistics bar, put this in your configuration.yaml

Running HA Container, Iā€™ve reverted back to 2024.9 for now.
2024.10.1 had so many errors, I wouldnā€™t know where to begin to fix it. HACS wouldnā€™t work anymore complaining about ā€œUnterminated string literalsā€ everywhere. Pretty much not a single custom component would load. All automation spammed the logs about errors. Geezā€¦ Itā€™s been a while since I had such a shocking upgrade. Hope itā€™s something to do with my environment.

Anybody else have issues running HA Container ?

Unfortunately since updating to this version, I am constantly getting out of memory errors and HA freezing and restarting. Restoring to the previous version did not fix this so I fear I may have to wipe and start from scratch, this is a nightmare. I googled this issue, which seems to happen quite a bit but no one has any solution.

Well, good this is accounted. Should be similar in all places like trigger-based sensors, template switchesā€¦

Thank you, a bit expensive for me spending 5-7 days a month at home))

I was getting multiple restarts this morning after updating last night. The issue was related to the latest update to Alexa Media Plater. See here for this issue with that update.

Rolling back to the last version of AMP stops the restarting.
