My live view is not working anymore. I tried reloading the integration and restarting ha but makes no difference. I get the following error. Is anyone else seeing this?
Logger: homeassistant.components.stream.worker
Source: components/stream/worker.py:215
Integration: Stream (documentation, issues)

Error opening stream rtsp://: @192.168.1.36:554/mpeg/media.amp
I had my https duck dns external URL. It works for last ring and last motion but not for live view.
Okay think I figured out my issue. I had more than 2 simultaneous streams from my doorbird camera already hence the live view wouldn’t work
Thinking of installing Doorbird at home (to replace Hikvision). Do you recommend it? Any other brand/model to recommend better?
It’s difficult. I use it now for three years and unwound not recommend it. At least in my case I needed to replace it as rain was finding it’s way into it. Also I’m not satisfied with the time it takes to build up a connection. I have it connected via lan and even if I’m in my home wifi it takes 10 seconds till I can communicate.
It takes ages if you’re not at home.
On the other hand I don’t trust Ring, Nest or even the Logitech doorbell. I think the only alternative would be the Netatmo one. But you can’t hook it up via lan which could be a bummer. Especially, judging my netatmo cams, wifi isn’t their strength.
So I’ll stick with the doorbird but I’ll replace it in a heartbeat if I found something which can be connected to LAN and has a decent speed.
yeah I know what you mean, looking as well
I have the basic doorbird. But noticed the pir sensor cap to, let’s say, coming to it’s end. After being in the sun and rain for about 3 years now.
Other things: it’s slow, video quality it terrible if you ask me. For the price I would rather have a ZigBee button, good lan camera and a pir sensor. Instead of everything in one package.
But like @Flo.C I’m waiting for a good alternative.
Oh yeah…don’t let me started on the sensor of the cam as well as it’s turning magenta because there is not ich protection on …
Hi Guys,
i installed the Doorbird with UI and i can see the Live View. Now i want to get the HTTP Calls for the Button. But i struggle with the Documentation.
What i did:
And now i struggle with:
I am on the newest HA and someone above posted a screenshot with Doorbird Options (Gear-Icon), but i can’t find this gear-icon on my HA.
See here
Please help!
Thanks!
i finally managed it!
in the process of installing HA i added the doorbird with my admin-account, because at that moment i didn’t read the documentation and was impressed that it worked right away and forogt about the popup for login-credentials.
my process of getting it to work:
-------------- IF YOU START FRESH - START HERE --------------
Extra:
If you want to find out your TOKEN, just go:
and start listening. In the Doorbird App, push the Relay Button and then you will see some Action in HA named Doorbird and you will find the TOKEN there.
GOOD LUCK
PS:
I had problems seeing EVENTS in HA, i restarted the Doorbird (Admin-Menu) and now i finally see EVENTS!
somehow my Event is called:
doorbird_doorbird_haustur_doorbell
Hi, are you satisfied with Doorbird?
What I wish to have is real time doorbell push events and motion events
I have the version with fingerprint reader D2101FV. Is it planned to add the fringerprint results to the Home Assistant integration? That would be great! They are available throught the local API.
Hi, so far I managed to get the events into HA. However, has anyone managed to store the pictures of last_motion last_ring? I would love to se the history in HA (it’s possible in Doorbird)
i haven’t followed your process as everything is working for me currently, but I appreciate the update to the thread with the new flow. I’ve marked this as the solution to help people find this quicker.
Thank you very much. In the beginning i had problems with the permissons. No HTTPs calls…
Could you post your step by step manual to the Plugin Descripition?
That would be very nice for other newbies like me 
I’m also wondering how one could use the Motion Sensor to record a video, so as to avoid storing vidoes in the cloud? I have tried MotionEye with HA, but it does it’s own motion detection which is not comparable…
Hello, I did this procedure before and it worked.
But for some reason it stopped working so I deleted all configurations and started again but no success…
Once I click on configure(somebody_pressed_the_button) and Submit, an HTTPS call is created automatically on my doorbird APP
after that in schedules I select the HTTPS call(all blue) , save and restart HA and Doorbird.
On the events I start Listing press the button and nothing.
What am I missing ?
Thank you
The homeassistant event name that is currently set to just doorbell needs to match the HTTPS call name doorbird_doorbell. Once those match everything should work properly!
Is the doorbird integration working correctly? I did the described procedure, but when someone rings the bell the automation does not fire, but if I fire the event locally in HA it works. Did anyone solve the problem?
Someone with an example of automation, for example when the doorbell rings, I want to receive a push message on my iphone.
Thanks
