Yes, the brightness (and also light temperature) are an issue. I will fix it in next version but I didn't get around it.
The problem is with the template entities in HA, for some reason, brightness and temperature are not correctly reported when they are 0. So as a temporary fix please manually set up your entities like this: value_template: "{{ state_attr('entity.name', 'brightness') | int | round(0) }}"
I will add this to the generator when I finally get time to do so.
Hi
I really love this project! I'm looking for something like this since a long time!
Before I get one of those devices, I try to do it with my own stuff.
I now started with just a small menu structure. I just want to change the brightness of a light.
For now, most of the setup works and I have now an Idea how it will look like in the future.
unfortunatelly I could never change the brightness so far. All it is doing is switch off the light and in the display its writing "nan" for the brightness value.
When I check the log output of esphome, the value submitted from the rotary encoder is always "-1"! which is very strange!
But I know that the rotary is working, because I made some other tests wit it. I Think there is a bug somewhere in the code.
May I send you the generated code to check that?
Thanks a lot!
