Trying to upgrade from a 2021 release to the latest one, absolutely no idea whether this will work or not…

Originally I abandoned this install because the API I used to integrate a DIY addressable LED strip (controlled by a media player entity, changed colour to match the cover art) was removed and replaced with something else, and I didn’t have time to redevelop it.

For a while its been possible to do something pretty similar with WLED - at that point I was just putting off the upgrades to not break anything 😅

At this point it’s probably a better idea to re-install but let’s see how this goes!

    Quick update if anyone is reading this in future - the upgrade was successful!

    Hats off to the HA developers and contributors - even though my install was completely unsupported, the updater pretty much sailed smoothly through everything.

    It ended up taking several days to process all the database schema changes, along the way I did need to modify the MySQL InnoDB cache size from 128MiB to 1GiB (not the fault of Home Assistant at all - I didn’t set up MySQL correctly 😂) once that was done things significantly sped up.

    Looking forward to all the new features HA has to offer 🙂
