Bravo for this update and as Pierre Dac, Desproges, or Coluche might have said (as a Mexican friend said, « we put the dark heroes we want! Â»:roll_eyes:) so as they might have said « a small step for man, a big step for hilarity Â»:rofl:

I had installed a Gladys instance on an Ubuntu 20.04 VM, I had the Telegram problem. I confirm that now Telegram exchanges work.

I still haven’t received the update :frowning:
So no testing on my calendars for now :frowning:

Is Watchtower running on your machine? docker ps? Any special logs in Watchtower?

Otherwise, since you recently rebooted your Pi, I think it resets the 24-hour countdown to zero with each reboot, so it’s possible you missed it.

Great calendar scenes done for me!

Not bad as an update!

I had an implementation idea in mind that turns out to be quite cumbersome to set up. Let me explain:

  • I have a « wake-up Â» event in my calendar that triggers a scene.
  • This scene gradually turns on the light in the bedroom, to create a sunrise effect.

I haven’t found any other way than to chain « Device Control - Brightness Â» and « Wait Â» to gradually increase the brightness in my room.

Is there a way to create loops in scenes to simplify all this?

It seems to me that a feature request needs to be made for this.
There was indeed a discussion about this via Philips hue… https://community.gladysassistant.com/t/philips-hue-fade-in/6008
