Please support a image besides camera view #754

Open borgqueenx opened 3 weeks ago

borgqueenx commented 3 weeks ago

Description

The official roborock integration makes constant updating images, does not have a camera view anymore. It would be great if instead of a camera, a image can be used for this card.

Solution

Supporting image view for the map.

Alternatives

No response

Context

No response

You can use image entity instead of camera entity by editing yaml configuration

Can you show us how?

borgqueenx commented 3 weeks ago

i simply tried to change camera into image in the yaml of the lovelace card, but now it says its missing calibration source.

Unfortunately at this moment official Roborock integration doesn't support calibration required for the map card

Why so? If a still image works I would imagine that one generated automatically would as well 🤔

I would love to do something like that but it does not seem to work:

map_source:
  image: image.roborock_s8_pro_ultra_ground_floor

You can try to manually calibrate the map from Roborock integration the same way you can calibrate the static image. It is not trivial though, so I prefer to not include it in the documentation.

The config would be:

map_source:
  camera: image.roborock_s8_pro_ultra_ground_floor

Maybe we can ask the Roborock integration guys to make an easily calibrated image. What would it take to make it easier?

PiotrMachowski commented 1 week ago

That's not so easy. Also he is aware of this problem and we have already discussed potential solutions:
