Animated backgrounds for lovelace
Small feature addition
If you don't want a video you can simply define an image url for a still image background.
This should fix the issue of a white background if your config is not complete or missing an entity state. Let me know if you have any edge cases that the fix didn't catch.
This fix is mostly just for myself, but also to anyone using iOS pre 13.4.
MAJOR BREAKING CHANGES IF YOU ARE COMING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION
This will be the final feature update for a while. I've been meaning to do this for a while, but just got the motivation to get it done.
There will be no more ambiguity on where the video files are coming from. Now instead of the previously provided default html files, you will instead define the video url directly. No more editing html for your own videos required 🎉
You can use videos placed in you config>www folder by defining the url with /local/your-video.mp4. This will have the added benefit of speeding up load times as you will not have to rely on external servers.
I have updated all the README examples with the new configuration format. If you use the example weather configuration it will function identically to the way the previous example functioned.
While this is the last major feature update I plan on doing for the foreseeable future (although that could change tomorrow, I'm enjoying working on this project) I will still be working on fixes for any bugs that may come up. So make sure to submit an issue if you run into trouble.
I know, a very generic release title, but these are some major optimizations. Stability should be better across all kinds of configs and switching rapidly between views/dashboards.
Added the ability to limit html files to a single video, check the bottom of the README for instructions
