Version 4.8.5

Current version is 5.6.4, while 4.x versions of ring-mqtt have been obsolete/unsupported for over 2 years, there is no longer even a simple upgrade path so you will have to uninstall v4.8.5 and install v5.6.4 from scratch.

Wow, I can't believe I missed that. Sorry for assuming that since it showed no update, that it was up to date! Thanks for your time and response.

[tsightler]

It's quite strange that it does not show an update, as 4.8.5 was not even the last version of the 4.x branch. Not only that, but of the >4000 installations that report statistics via Home Assistant analytics, only 8 are still on 4.8.5, while >3500 are on the latest 5.6.4 version and another 457 are on the previous 5.6.3 build, so that 3981. When a new version is pushed it usually takes <72 hours to hit >50% of users on the latest version due to auto-update.

Also, just for reference, uninstalling the old addon and re-installing the new one should be quite painless overall, especially since it looks like you are using mostly defaults. Just plugin stuff like your livestream user/password and disarm code back into the config, re-authenticate, and things should be basically the same. There's some additional notes still at:

I found that for some reason I had removed the repo from the custom repo list. That is likely why I didn't show any update. Also, I did find that article and the upgrade was painless, just like you said.

Thanks again
