My home office has a 12' ceiling, a giant window that takes up most of one wall, and 3 smaller windows that are high on the wall. In the summer, for a couple hours each day, the sun shines through those smaller windows and create a glare so bad on my monitor that's difficult to see anything.

Does anyone have any recommendation for a film for those windows that don't reduce light but do reduce the glare on my monitor? Some light loss is fine, as plenty of light comes in through the larger window and these smaller windows are on the side of my house so it won't interfere with the continuity of the look of the house.

I know how to change the icon. But I like that the default icon changes when the door is open and changes when it is going up or down.

Right now, my garage door icon defaults to the single car garage. If I change it to a double garage, it just stays like that and doesn't change.

EDIT: Solved! I had to update my Home Assistant.

I followed the instructions on Ratgdo's webpage. I flashed the latest firmware. Then I installed it in my garage. In ESPHome Builder (within HA interface), I can see the device. I've noted the Key and the IP Address. When I visit the device via the IP Address, I can use the arrows and confirm they control my garage, so it's wired correctly.

Now, when I go to Inegrations -> ESPHome, I see it detects the Ratgdo. If I click "add", it says it's successful. However, ESPHome still says there is only 1 device (I already had a sensor installed and working). It appears that ESPHome has the device shown, but there are no entities and the device count didn't go up.

I think it's weird that it doesn't ask me for an encryption key when I try to add it to the ESPHome integration.

The logs say there is a handshake issue. But I have no idea why.
