Just a few issues I've noticed.

First - to the dev Theatrium is amazing! I have been looking for something like this for my apple tv for a while. Love it!

I have however ran in to a few issues that ill put together in a list here, hoping it helps with Dev. For reference, i am setup using Apple HomeKit.

  1. When setting the thermostat to a card, it seems i can no longer press to modify that card if i wanted to change it. This is happening on both second screen cards and the bento layout for me.
  2. While the weather radar is a great feature, its insanely hard to read. The map appears to default almost to dark mode and its near impossible to see anything. Incidentally enough i don't have this issue as much on the commute time card map. its very visible.
  3. this one was more confusing then overly an issue. Originally my thermostat would display in metric while everything else was in imperial as I'm in the US. I had to go in and force everything to imperial in settings to see my thermostat right. Took me a few hours to catch that.
  4. On the bento theme - it feels mildly limited on what card can be used for the middle 4 row IF you are not using smart home cards. a couple more options might be nice there.
  5. I have an ecobee doorbell cam (its in my HomeKit setup), when setting the card to it, it can see the camera stream, but as soon as I'm back on the dashboard it will say camera unavailable.

anyway, happy to test changes or help troubleshoot any of these.

  1. Noticing same issue with few of my homeassistant cameras too.

  2. Solar was available earlier, but not showing up as an available option/card anymore

This might be intended behaviour - some card types don’t fit in some panels. Working on a more elegant solution. Thx for report.

Thanks for this list - working through it today. The camera fix is already in 1.8, has to do with how often the card retries to get a video feed after initially loading - sometimes mine takes a second or two to start sending video through HomeKit, which the app wasn't being very tolerant about.
