    HOME ASSISTANT (Assist) Voice Assistant

    I have two Echo Atoms. Mainly because I do not like anything cloud based. With these I can keep everything local. Pete also helped me with some initial installations. I now have them responding on house speaker along with my TTS.

    send Telegram notifications with pictures

    Yes I have that set up. However I do not see where it creates an mp4 file. In the alerts page and when setting up for email alert, it lets you specify to attach a mp4 file along with the alert. With the run program/ script alert that option is not there. Since I record in bvr format, how do I...

    No, in the camera itself. I have to use SADP tool to activate it again. This screen shot is after I unplugged it and then plugged it back in.

    I have a Hikvision DS-2CD2087G2-L camera that will lose its activation any time power is interrupted to it. Unfortunately I live in an area that loses power periodically. Whenever that happens it loses connection with BI until I log back into it and re activate it. Even though it save it is...

    Looks like using GMAIL to send alert images may stop working on 30-May-2022....

    Are you using it (Proton Mail) with BI? I thought the only way to do that is with the paid account - not the free account.

    New computer - Now cant connect via web

    Thank you all for you input. I really appreciate it. It is amazing how much one forgets when not messing with the system for a long time. I think I have it fixed. The problems were two. 1 In addition to having port forwarding set up in my router, I also need to add a rule to the firewall to let...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I have the EZVIZ DB1. It has been connected for the last 18 months. When I first got it I installed either the Hikvision or Nellies firmware (I don't remember which- the Wi-Fi for the camera comes up as softap_xxx if that helps). About a week ago I noticed it was off line. I tried to reset it...

    Does BI delete older files to make room for newer?

    I was under the impression that BI deleted old files to make room for newer files. I have 5 cameras with one of them doing continuous recording. The recordings are going to a 1TB hard drive. I thought that as the drive gets full it would delete files as need to save the newer file but that is...

    Install to other than c drive

    My load for BI is small - only 4 cameras. It will be on a computer that also runs some other video recordings (SageTV). As for not installing on my OS drive, it is just something I've always conformed to. If installed on D drive it can utilize files on C just as easily. I like the separation...
