If I understand correctly, that data would be also available in [select.*_event_select] entity, which will allow to show TimeStamp information for recording in HomeAssistant UI. |

I am using ring-mqtt together with a node-red flow to do all the event handling for my Ring wired doorbell and all is working great!
One thing that would be nice is when it would be possible to have the "event_select/attributes" message not only contain recordingUrl and eventId, but also eventtype (like you've done with the snapshot recently) and also the timestamp of the event.
Is that an possibility for the future?
I am currently saving the time of the last Motion & Ding ON events in my flow and then use that to trigger the download of the Motion/Ding mp4 when the event_select/attributes is received. The filename is made up of time-eventype.mp4 and they are stored in the directory for the event date.
The reason for the request is that every now and then there are multiple DING's or Motion detection and the event date-time stamp will be incorrect.
I am currently using the eventId number for testing whether it is larger than the last eventType number to identify it must be a new one.
Thanks for all your work on this great tool!
