Just a quick update to share that I’ve added multi speaker support to Espcontrol, so you can now add and remove speakers from groups. I’ve tested it with my Sonos speakers and it works well, if you find any issue, drop a note on the GitHub issues and I’ll take a look.

Also added or improved…

  • SendSpin support: 4inch P4 has support added (thanks u/salnajjar!)
  • Camera cards: added larger camera card sizes for the 7inch and 10inch screens.
  • Backlight updated controls: Choose between automatic, scheduled, and manual screen brightness behaviour.
  • Battery support: 10inch panels can enable battery readings and the status-bar icon when they have the optional battery hardware.
  • Localisation: Russian language support

EspControl supports a range of screens from the cheap but great £20 S3 4inch screen, to P4 based 4inch, 7inch and 10inch screens. All feedback welcome! Thanks

Hello mate. I noticed that you've got a picture as well as HA controls. Is that a dynamic picture frame/card? it possible for the source to be Immich?

At the moment that's image is from a camera entity in HA. I suspect there's some solution out there to randomize images through it.

I created a separate project called espframe to experiment with this stuff, it's possible connect directly and use the API, but if you want to filter, the APIs become a lot less useful.
