That was going to be my backup plan, as I didn't want to use any more resource if I could avoid it 😅

The good news is, we figured it out, and got the file serving out of /config/www without an auth requirement.

Aha, that was what I was after, big thanks!

So, after a bit of meddling:

The location I was placing things in was media>my media (from the HA UI).
Assets there are stored in /media, and served in 8123/media/local, but require an autoSig.
Changing permissions doesn't affect the availability, no sig is a 401 error.

However, if the file is copied from /media to /config/www/ , it's then served (as you said) under 8123/local.

Brill, not too painful a process for a few static images (or indeed if I'm feeling brave, I could just symlink the folders).

Maybe one day there will be a way to upload background images for picture elements cards from the UI :)

I can appreciate that!
I do have standard layouts which are mostly big button to do a thing in the room.
But I also fancied having by-floor layouts.

And you're right: The button I have that sets the kitchen spots on/off/dim as a group is 10x more useable than a scale representation of their location in the ceiling!

HAOS under proxmox.
It's definitely one of those "many ways to skin the cat" situations!

Whichever one best justifies the lifestyle and decisions.

I'm more interested in what people are doing for internal hosting, not external hosting services. Thanks for the info, however.

This is honestly my hope. All these locations are getting a free trial of Reform competency.
In the same way Clacton are having a fun time getting in contact with their MP for surgeries.

Step 1: Put the front on.
Step 2: Don't let the front fall off.

Because it's easy to take populist pot-shots from the side, compared to defending your decisions while actually running the country at the same time.

It could also be that you need to re-add the thumbnails displayed in your dashboards, as the entities may be vestigial ones from when you used Dahua.

It might depend. If it's not the only piece of evidence being used, then even an edited photo could be used as a data point to confirm another unedited one.

I had a weird issue recently, where after a few reboots all the radios seemed to fail with weird errors.
In a similar vein to your solution, replugging them all worked, and after restarting the services they all came back.
And this was an install which (at the time) was quite a few versions behind.

I wondered if it was something strange with the way the USB devices were passed through the hypervisor, maybe a weird race condition where HAOS was ready, but the USBs were not...Anyway, all sorted, same as you!

Please! If I could just get a solid Linux phone with a decent up-to-date browser, that would be 99% of my use covered.

Edit: Now that I look at it, perhaps it's time for me to cough up, buy a FP5, and ubuntu that sucker.

Feedback I've heard about Drip was that the interface was slightly wanting. Which is a shame. Sample of one, bear in mind!

The IoT stuff needing it's own bands can get in the sea, imho.
Need to actually speak to the internet? Use one of the usual standard ways of connecting wirelessly. Need to communicate locally? Use one of the many options there (433/868/2.4/5)

It would end up with probably one national provider charging a mint for the service.

The important thing is, they're using SMRs.
Megaprojects can go off the rails of time/budget because people try to make them special, bespoke, unique.
"Nothing like this has ever been done before!" When really, you want your project to be like lego: Lots of standard parts (or at least, mass-produced for your project) that connect together to make a larger whole.
SMRs mean more common parts, and more modular building. Build the first, build the second faster, learn from mistakes, etc.

While I'm not admin, I'm cc'd on the invoices for continuity.

Emperor has been submitting them, however I've picked up this month's to be on the safe side and submitted it.

Yep, I made a quiet exit a few months back.
Just too much life going on to feel I was doing enough.
I have promised Flamingos and Emperor that if they needed another, I can step up again.

Depends on the country I guess.

Here, a packet is 16 tablets of 500mg (acetaminophen) or 200mg (ibuprofen).

We're limited to 2 packets combined per purchase to reduce the chances of severe overdose.

Package dosing generally suggests 2 tablets per dose, with at least 4 hours between.
Or one tablet for children between 10 and 14.
