I created a POLL on my channel (subscribe to see it) let me know which Script did you enjoy the most!

[sebastianfreund]

Excellent! 👍👍👍 I’ve learned some useful tricks 😊 Many many thanks!

[ochjoo]

Subscribed! This is the kind of non noob level videos that are very hard to find for Home Assistant..Thank you!

[Hootie]

Thanks for these, they simplified my automations massively

[RobinDeBecker]

A very usefull video. I will use two of them as soon as possible (broadcast and send message). I will save this video as next year I will install smart dimmable switches and the fading light will come in handy.

I'll be adopting the notify all script. Nice abstraction.

Good to see things like scripts in practical use

[johnnynobels]

Great video. Helps to understand yaml. Please provide more of this

[sanjaybali]

Love from India again. thank you for such a good tutorial always.... ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻

[paulrichards]

Really great video. It's helped me fix something that I've ben trying to do for ages (I'm a relative newbie to HOME ASSISTANT and the concept of YAML). One thing that I'm stuck on is getting the repeat announcement to work by using the repeat / while functionality (2m50 secs into your video). I've tried it and it fails to repeat the message, I've changed It to repeat / until too and it still doesn't repeat.

Great video! Need to watch it several times to get it all - I am new to Home Assistant ;-).

[PaulMorley]

Thanks for the great content Gio. I created the fade_lights script and ran into a problem getting it to work before I realized I hadn't listened very well to your instructions. I hadn't created the input_number yet and therefore got an "unknown entity" error when trying to run it. After creating the 'brightness_level' input number under Configuration >Automations > Helpers, the script worked just fine. Thanks again!

Awesome video. You are the best YouTuber I found for advanced HA coding. Would love to see more of this high level content - would really appreciate your input on global variables and making a ui select dropdown that gets its content from external api.... I am making a hydroponic setup and I want people to be able to share "recipes" for different setups that loads in parameters for control (ph, daily light, amount of nutrient, ideal temp and humidity etc) Your thoughts greatly appreciated.

[MrSupersidewinder]

I will use the broadcast script to send announcements to multiple media players!!! Thanks❣

[WoottonRivers]

Great video! I'd love to see more videos like this that explain scripting and templates

[wbthisisprivatethanks]

Maybe put a video of how it looks ( the result... prehaps the lamp in the back above books

[KrispKiwi]

Is it possible to do a script where it automatically sends a TTS to a different media player based upon a state. I have a sensor detecting the last room with motion so this would be helpful rather than doing choose options on every single automation

[dmwaeschle]

Hey Gio, Great video it has helped me a lot. I do however have a question regarding video you made "how tho create a media dashboard" I watched the video and I was reading your blog. I'm unsure how to put HDMI inputs into the helper that I created. Can you provide me some guidance? The helper I created is "Toggle" is that correct? I did not see a "select" option.

[gzxto]

Well done, very understandable explained. A type of tutorial I've not seen yet with other HA videos. Keep on going with such valuable content.

Great Videos, I am new to HA, and set up all my integrations without much fuss ( mainly Tuya) I have a tablet, but cannot find a way to automate power the unit to unit, any help would be appreciated ta
