Thanks for spotting this. I also already know why this is. The ability to change the type of virtual remote is new since version 2.4. The buttons on the virtual remote page are linked to the type correctly but the ones on the main page are not. These should also reflect the defined remote type on the virtual remote page.
I will update this in a future release.

Thanks, am I correct that there is one virtual remote type that should work for now?

I also tried downgrading to 2.3 and 2.3.5 but unable to get it working in any way.

The RFT CVE remote type should work with the front end buttons.
Switching remote type unfortunately needs the remote to be repaired to the itho.
Best to install 2.4.3, set the virtual remote to rft cve and follow the leave/join proces of the itho manual

Same probleem hier. 2.4.3 Home Assistant stuurt een speed change naar MQTT van ITHO naar 100%, er gebeurd niets. Als je in de webinterface van de ITHO kijkt staat deze wel op 100% high maar hij gaat niet daadwerkelijk naar hoog. Als ik de NRG webinterface toggled van medium naar High gaat het ding wel naar high. Klik ik weer op medium gaat hij naar medium maar de bar blijft 100% max aan geven. Misschien omdat home assistant MAX blijf vragen aan de API? Er lijkt iets niet te werken in 2.4.3 firmware. (Ben blij dat Home Assistant en MQTT iniedergeval lijken te praten, had me rot gezocht en re-installs gedaan etc.) Anyway issue dus dat de boel niet (meer) reageert op MQTT commando's eigenlijk, de webinterface wel mee gaat, maar de ITHO niet. Het gekke was dat met de eerste keer configuren alles werkte, het probleem onstond pas na een tijdje en ik krijg het er nu ook niet meer uit met reboots enzo.
Terwijl ik typ wordt de webinterface in-responsive.
Itho device type: CVE-Silent
Itho fw version: 27
RFT CO2

UPDTATE: Nu wat reboots naar RFT: CVE gezet inplaats van, reageert nu weer.

A meh, communication went out again last night after my previous update.
Reboot again this morning to get communication with HA.

Please try https://github.com/arjenhiemstra/ithowifi/releases/tag/Version-2.4.4-beta1
the buttons should now change with the set vremote type.

Seems not to be related to this issue. It could well be this one: #111

Experienced bug #111 and/or #115
Just tried 2.4.4-beta1. Initally it works.
-The slider in the webinterface does not move when using low, medium, high. Also not when sending commands via HA.
-The RFT AUTO does virtual remote does not work. Using the first RFT.
-I enable the I2C-bug checker.
-I will try to help in a limited way, the wife if allready upset.... what would be the safest firmware to revert to? (ITHO CVE-S FW27 HW2 with CC1101 RF)

Hi Arjen,

I did install the beta after your post and buttons on the home page works. I wast able to control trough HA, but I did not had the time to figure out if that’s something in my own setup. I will figure that out.

Hi @arjenhiemstra,

I did some test on MQTT but can't get it working. All information is updated correctly but setting low,mid,high doesnt.

I fixed it using this guide:

perfect, thanks!
