Axis camera component

Hello
Is there any change to make the config button work to setup different video source because i have an axis f34 unit with multiple analog cameras connected

Thank you

Robban · September 11, 2021, 4:12pm

Sure. I just need to see how those devices expose the different sources. Maybe in that case you should be able to retrieve multiple streams?

stamateviorel · September 12, 2021, 8:26pm

Hy wow great we’ll let me know what you need. For the moment it takes camera 1 feed working fine but It also has 3 more and a quad view.
For example i can stream it using this:
rtsp://user:[email protected]:554/axis-media/media.amp?camera=2&videocodec=h264&streamprofile=low

Oh and your integration is working flawless for the F41 and the Q6155-E. Now one i get this going i am also gonna do some test to see if can get the D2110-VE.
Thanks

Robban · September 13, 2021, 7:20am

I haven’t done anything yet to support the D2110, its on my todo

All standard APIs and events should of course work out of the box.

stamateviorel · September 28, 2021, 2:08pm

Bumping this to get attention .

Robban · September 28, 2021, 5:41pm

Please do a request on the axis library GitHub, that will help me remember things. I can’t remember all comments on the forum.

With that said, I can’t promise when I’ll get to adding D2110 support since I have other things I need to do first

My Axis M1031-W keeps trying to connect to the default IP. It doesn’t bother me much, but it’s spamming the logs:

First occurred: 10:58:13 (21 occurrences)
Last logged: 16:53:40
* Error connecting to the Axis device at 192.168.0.90

FYI, my Axis is configured on 192.168.1.23 and it works fine otherwise.

Discovery protocols should help with updating the address if it’s properly set up. What’s working fine the integration or the device?

Vinx · January 7, 2022, 9:52am

Both the device and the integration work fine. Well, sometimes a snapshot I send to pushover is missed, but I don’t think that’s related. It really only the logging where I saw this in a cleaning effort.
I don’t understand the thing about the discovery protocols, is that something I can do?
I’ve tried the configure button from the integration panel, but strangely that gives me the error:

I believe this logging is linked to that error:

I also found this logging, not sure its related:

Could you create a GitHub issue on ha core? Better than doing that here

Vinx · January 7, 2022, 4:25pm

Yes, I’ve done so. Thanks for the suggestion.

Axis Integration:
All Axis cameras that are made available (and working) through the Axis Integration are not available after a reboot. Over time 1-2 hours they become available again. Is this normal behavior? If not is there something I can do to have these cameras available directly after a reboot?
I use a Q7436 3 blade 291 server.
(I should also mention that the 4 comeras I have configured through the Ubiquiti Unifi Protect integration are always available directly after reboot.) Thanks

Robban · March 30, 2022, 5:51pm

No its not normal behavior. Sounds really weird

sonynut · May 11, 2022, 8:36pm

I have some Axis M1054 cameras, is there a way to use HA to turn on/off the LED light? It is not an IR light. I am able to use the PIR sensor that is included. Am using firmware 5.51.7.6.

Robban · May 11, 2022, 9:43pm

It’s not impossible but AFAIK there is not a detailed api to control that light so I wouldn’t know how

dxfoxdHA · May 11, 2022, 9:46pm

If you are able to use http then the following should work: (on my M1054 and M1031 oldies)
http://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@[CAMERA IP]/axis-cgi/io/lightcontrol.cgi?action=L1:[BRIGHTNESS] where brightness 0 = off and 100 = 100%

Edit:

If you put a dash in front of the brightness, the LED will fade in stead of hard on/off.
Some more interesting reading (in French, but G translate will help: https://www.maison-et-domotique.com/6789-camera-axis-m1031-w-et-vera-un-joli-couple/
Last, try to discover the commands used by the cam webpage (press F12), contains a lot of material to get started.

Art.

Robban · May 12, 2022, 7:23am

How do you know the state of the light?

sonynut · May 12, 2022, 1:53pm

Thank you, will give it a shot.

sonynut · May 12, 2022, 2:32pm

I found this, but have not had time to search it much yet

getLightStatus Retrieves the light status from a given Light ID.
