Hi,
I have a Picture entity card that shows a camera and is normally set to Auto refresh which is fine most of the time. I also have a separate zigbee motion sensor covering the camera area and would like to switch the Picture entity card from auto to live when motion is detected on the zigbee motion sensor.
I have seen solutions where a separate card is opened as a pop-up when motion is detected, but that would be too annoying. I just want to switch between live and auto based on motion.
Please can anyone help with this?
I’m using the state_switch card for this, but should also be possible with the Conditional Card.
- type: custom:state-switch
entity: input_boolean.radar_switch
states:
'on':
type: picture-entity
entity: camera.regenradar_bild
show_name: false
show_state: false
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: input_boolean.toggle
service_data:
entity_id: input_boolean.radar_switch
'off':
type: picture-entity
entity: camera.regenradar_film
show_name: false
show_state: false
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: input_boolean.toggle
service_data:
entity_id: input_boolean.radar_switch
The tap_action toggles an input_boolean and changes the picture-entity card.
