I’m hoping it’s just something stupid.
I’ve been playing around with rtl_433 for a while, and started making decoders for various bits of kit I have. When I run things on a laptop, with the same dongle, I pick things up no problem.
Yesterday, I tried to start integrating it with HASS. I installed this 433 wrapper, and Mosquitto Broker.
The 433 wrapper seems to work, and devices are decoded in the log when I use a generic config. But when I use one that pushes to MQTT, nothing shows up in the 433 logs other than the connection to MQTT, and nothing seems to be logged on the MQTT.
I vaguely remember reading that the simple Mosquitto broker only had a limited set of devices supported, but I can’t seem to find where I read that now :|
You might be on the wrong track with the last paragraph. Does the mosquito broker even support “devices”? Doesn’t it just support generic topics and messages?
It sounds like for whatever reason rtl_433 is not pushing messages to your MQTT broker. Check with MQTT Explorer if you haven’t already
Double check your MQTT connection settings in rtl_433. Also try changing QOS settings to see if it helps
