This issue is resolved in my updated fork mill1000/midea-ac-py

[ryanandres]

Excellent! I just switched over. Thank you!

[mill1000]

Make sure you update msmart as well to get all the features.

e.g. In your HA system/container/env

pip install git+https://github.com/mill1000/midea-msmart.git

I did this and now my cool mode is not an option in the drop down

[mill1000]

Ah, that can happen if (for some reason) the device doesn't report the correct capabilities.

You can work around this by manually adding the cool mode in the integration configuration like so

[ryanandres]

That worked! And no warnings or errors in my logs.

Off topic, but have you fixed the issue with devices being unresponsive due to having multiple client instances?

In my case I'm using Carrier's app and HA... https://github.com/mac-zhou/midea-ac-py/issues/95#issuecomment-1631598926

[mill1000]

Unfortunately, most of the underlying network code is unchanged so this will probably still be an issue

What are you using the carrier app for that this extension can't do?

[ryanandres]

I'm using it to configure schedules and I'm not aware of this extension supporting it.

[ryanandres]

I know that sounds idiotic considering I can use HA to automate my own schedules. Now I'm trying to recall exactly why I relied on the carrier app... I think a while ago the extension or my system was not reliable so I depended on carrier's cloud service. I need to reconsider this

Hahaha that's alright. Might be worth ditching the Carrier app for a little bit just to see if it makes the integration more reliable. If its still flaky then the integration won't be of much use will it.
