Can’t find aarlo.yaml

[rpaillot]

Hi

I might sound stupid but I can’t find aarlo.yaml in my home assistant folder.
I use file editor to access the directory and I only find configuration.yaml which is my HA config file.

otherwise aarlo integration works perfectly but can’t tweak much things if I can’t find aarlo.yaml

this is what file editor shows me at the root of /homeassistant

In custom components I have the aarlo directory with only .py files but not yaml.

In the .aarlo folder at the root of home assistant like in the attached screen capture I only find .pickle files and cookies.txt

thanks for your help

This is what's inside

version: 1
aarlo:
host: https://my.arlo.com
mqtt_host: mqtt-cluster-z1.arloxcld.com

only that ?

Then, Where can I tweak Aarlo Integration, especially regarding the video streaming ?
Should I modify the .py files?

You can add more entries to that file. For example I have:

version: 1
aarlo:
  recent_time: 60
  refresh_devices_every: 1
  refresh_modes_every: 60
  stream_timeout: 125
  user_agent: linux
  reconnect_every: 15
  save_media_to: /config/media/${SN}/${Y}/${m}/${d}/${T}

If there isn't a value the code just uses a default.

edit: I just checked the code, if this is a new install the file won't be created, it's all default settings. I'll update the docs to say this.

Thank you man ;)

I have some troubles also with the Lovelace card. The v0.2 which is only available on HACS has troubles for streaming (it plays half a second then stop)

I could try v0.3 and it works much better but I have sometimes error « custom element doesn’t exist Arlo glance »
I can’t find why it does that sometime but I guess it’s because I installed it manually with the install script and it’s not as solid as installing it via HACS (where it’s not possible to install v0.3)

You can install 0.3 by HACS, you just have to ask it to look for "pre-release" builds.

Once I get some other (unrelated) work done I'll get round to moving that out of pre-release.
