Hi, new to home assistant, automation and linux based systems in general.
I am trying to setup my reolink doorbell in frigate. I’ve got everything installed but can’t get a yaml working that lets me connect to the stream. I keep getting the same 401 auth error.
I know this is typically incorrect credentials, but I have double (triple, no quadruple!) checked the details, even creating a new user just for this login and it keeps erroring out. I’ve read through HA, Frigate, go2rtc documentation, I’ve been sitting with ChatGPT for several hours at this point trying all the different settings, logs, menus etc etc I’ve tried writing yamls with and without go2rtc, I’ve tried other configs/settings that have been suggested in other threads and nothing has worked - always the same 401 error. I’ve restarted the camera and HA OS several times throughout all of this testing and tweaking.
I can access the camera fine using the Reolink integration in HA, or by probing the IP address directly via web browser.
Here is one of the super basic config files I am trying to run. I know 1000000% the credentials are fine. I’ll try and add log files too
