v1.2.2
✨ What's New 1.2.2
🔊 Text-to-Speech — Add tts: true to any alert and HA reads it aloud. Works with standard TTS speakers, Alexa, and Google Home via notify.* services. Auto-generates natural sentences in 9 languages based on the alert theme (e.g. "Critical alert: Smoke sensor kitchen"). Global master toggle tts_enabled to mute all at once.
📷 Camera Snapshot in Overlay — Add camera_entity to any alert and the live camera frame appears inside the overlay banner, below the message. Scales proportionally with overlay_scale.
🖼️ 6 New Clear Widget Styles — Clock: aurora, gold, matrix. Weather badge: stage, split, cinematic. Plus date show/hide and above/below position control.
📡 device_class Filter — Auto-discover all entities of a given class (e.g. smoke, battery, motion) and create one alert per match — no entity listing needed. (#80)
🔍 Jinja2 in state Field — Drive thresholds from helper entities: state: "{{ states('input_number.threshold') }}". (#78)
🔎 Overlay Scale — overlay_scale: 1 / 1.5 / 2 / 3 enlarges the entire banner proportionally. Great for wall tablets and TVs. (#81)
🕐 Widget in Alert Cycle — show_widget_in_cycle: true adds the clock/weather widget as a slide in the alert rotation. (#73)
🎨 Custom Icon Namespaces — hue:, phu:, cil: and any custom icon set now work out of the box. (#82)
🇨🇿 Czech Language — Full translation contributed by @feixm1. (#74)
