So, it's the state of the **open** home, on... uh, **Youtube**? 🤔

Did I get that right?

So is anyone actually using #upmpdcli?

Yes, I am quite aware that looks like a gibberish hashtag that means nothing, but I assure you, it's a very cool bit of software with a very horrible name. I have previously ranted about this weird proclivity among #MPD adjacent projects to just be as un-musical as possible when choosing a name.

Anyways, this appears possibly questionable, license-wise, but this #OpenHome protocol setup seems much more feature-complete and designed with some actual use cases in mind, if you believe the pretty-impressive documentation though I have not done any real testing yet.

For me, I've already observed that #snapcast works great for multi-room audio, so the acid test is, does #songcast work just as well? Even if it doesn't, we can still integrate snapcast with a few pipes.

But that brings me to my question/idle comment, the docs say that it should have the sc2mpd package in their repo for said songcast setup, and it does not appear to be there. But it might be a different repo I need to install, still working on it.

#today hosting an #OpenHome this afternoon for Sustainable September to show how #energy #efficiency works in practice and we aren't a spaceship!

Have a new #dreame D10s pro robot vacuum since our old #neato (one of the first connected models) died. Immediately installed #valetudo on it (since a camera with local AI to recognize clutter on the floor is quite handy, but I don't like the idea of an internet connected camera on wheels in my home). The procedure was complex, but in the end quite OK. And damn, this #valetudo is a nice piece of software! And it works great together with @homeassistant over #mqtt. I ❤️ #opensource and #openhome

@homeassistant @openhomefoundation I love how much effort you have put into the event, both contetnt- and production-wise! :blobPikaHappy: Congratulations to everyone involved!

Can you share a link to the roadmap? I can't find it anywhere.

Keep on doing the amazing job with everything around #OpenHome!

Welcome Mastodon.

This is our #introduction. #RaspberryMatic is an #OpenSource operating system alternative for all your #HomeMatic / #homematicIP #IoT #SmartHome gear

In contrast to the vendors own cloud solution it operates #CloudFree so that your #OpenHome stays alive even if the vendor goes away

RaspberryMatic can be operated on various platforms like #RaspberryPi or virtual solutions like #Proxmox #Docker or as an add-on in #HomeAssistant
