Hello to all,
I am currently running RTL_433 as an add-on in Home Assistant (
https://github.com/pbkhrv/rtl_433-hass-addons/tree/main/rtl_433) and have several SDRs connected to a single machine that I am trying to read traffic on different frequencies (319.508M & 916.8M) without having to hop frequencies. I have been able to each of these devices to work on their own frequencies and publish into MQTT when used one at a time. Below is system information as I often see people asking for that to better assist.
arch: amd64
channel: stable
docker: 20.10.9
machine: generic-x86-64
Home Assistant OS 7.5
supervisor-2022.03.5
core-2022.3.7
The system set up is an HP intel machine with i7-10700 CPU with 32GB ram, with HA running off a 500GB USB SSD (as boot system and not in VM). The machine boots from this drive on startup while I wait to get an internal SSD so that I can keep the original Windows 10 drive and setup in case I want to revert that back.
I have two configuration files in rtl_433/
- rtl_433.conf.template
- rtl_433_2.conf.template
I have tried adding both of these in the config tab of the add-on but gives an error and defaults to add-on settings, separating the two files by a comma as well as by | , both of which give an error.
