Hello, has anyone created a guide to setting up Home Assistant Companion App on Portal with luck? My goal was simple (I thought), I want to use the Portal for a HA dashboard. I would like the Portal to go to sleep when I leave the room and wake when I return. I would like HA dashboard to be showing persistently. So far, I've tried Portal HA Bridge, but each time I return the Bridge app loads on the screen instead of HA. I tried Immortal, which didn't trigger sleep/wake. l last I just installed HA Companion, but can't get the setting correct to sleep/wake in an automation.

So far, the best I've done is HA Companion with a sleep/wake screen brightness automation that sleep/wakes when the PC in the room does the same, but still have problem with Portals lock screen.

I setup a v2 pan tilt on a pattern using 4 waypoints continuously. The camera is mounted up side down. Initially, it followed the pattern correctly for a few weeks. Recently, after several hours it will point lower but continue the same pattern. If I restart the camera, it will begin the correct pattern again for several hours. I'm running the most recent firmware and Android app and have no detection zones and such. Ideas?
