Not sure, I'm too pov for a Apple TV but yes agreed.
Although apparently there isn't the best integration between Apple TV and Ring.
Maybe this is an option,

Saw that mentioned in an HA thread about Reolink + AppleTV. I think I will give it a go, although I presume it is subscription fee based.Not sure, I'm too pov for a Apple TV but yes agreed.

If anyone has Hive set up and wants to run it locally on HA then I’ve written a howto guide over on the HA forums. I’ve had some serious issues with Hive dropping off HA for unknown reasons and disrupting my heating which is why I moved everything over to HA

I tried getting our Hive to connect to the app then the plan was to integrate it into HA. Can't get the app to detect the thermostat though and that is the same in Home assistant as the standard integration uses the cloud from Hive to get the data. It appears this is a common problem. I gave up in the end. Would this cut out it needing to connect to the Hive server ? Part of me thinks it may be an issue with zigbee between the stat/hub and receiver.
Yes, it’s a completely local solution. I’d personally put everything straight into HA rather than through Hive. Hive are going to cut access to their api which means only accessing your Hive setup through their app. That was another reason I moved everything over to HA as better sooner than later

Hi guys
Quick question - this automation works but there's a massive delay - sometimes it can take up to 30s.
Is there a way to make it poll quicker?
The motion sensor is a hive one.

ive been trying to do a simple turn on switch when i am on my way home using proximity but completely failing and cannot get it to kick in. I was looking to turn on a light when i am say 200m from home zone. Does anyone have any good guide as i used one off YouTube and still cannot.

It's a hive motion sensor - what info do you need?
It's connected to the network via wifi, but I think how the hive stuff works is that it goes to the hive hub (which then does it's thing), but I'm not 100% sure. I'm not overly bothered, this is me just playing with things to see how it works, however it would be nice to get this a bit better as it's dark early at the moment, and having the lights come on when someone walks into the room would be kinda neat.
Check out Bluecubes post --- I would wager the garbage internet connectivity may be part of the delay.
Moving communication to local may work.

You're a star - I'll have a read later thank you <3
Hive uses cloud polling so it's always going to have a delay unfortunately.
Man of Honour
Aha! well that will be that then - I'll find a better sensor to do what I want it to do. Cheers
Posts may be out of order - but that's exactly what Bluecube has figured out. How to talk to Hive localAha! well that will be that then - I'll find a better sensor to do what I want it to do. Cheers

Yep I gathered!

The main hub is connected by LAN of course, but yeah the rest connects wirelessly to the hive hub.
This is how I control my porch lights a similar way to what you want. It's part of a bigger automation so ignore any wierdness.

I’m fairly certain that all Hive stuff is Zigbee rather than WiFi which is good. At the moment, everything is sorted out via the Hive hub. Any Hive devices connected to HA have to talk to HA via a cloud connection (as has been mentioned) which may well account for the hefty delay.
If you’re up for experimenting then a Zigbee dongle and Zigbee2MQTT opens up a whole new world of cheap, fast sensors
