Still struggling to learn.
I wanted to add a second generic mjpeg camera, so I added it into my cameras.yaml file:
#cameras.yaml
#Amcrest Camera, Model IP3M-943B
- platform: amcrest
name: Studio
#Generic IP cameras
- platform: mjpeg
mjpeg_url: http://192.168.1.131:9090/stream/video.mjpeg
name: Office
- platform: mjpeg
mjpeg_url: http://192.168.1.217/index.asp
name: Garage
username: admin
password: admin
My garage camera is visible on any browser with the URL, username and password above, but on my Home Assistant Home page, it is blank. what have I done wrong?
Thanks,
Cee

At a guess, I would say its the link that wont work. Looks like it links to a index page,
mjpeg_url: http://192.168.1.217/index.asp
Will probably need to be something morel ike the first one, an actually link to the video.mjpeg.
Have a google of the camera, see if you can find a direct link to the stream, should fix it up.

Wow, thanks- you nailed it.
Your response also got me to Google “airlink AIC600W mjpeg” and I found:
https://www.ispyconnect.com/man.aspx?n=AirLink#
which gave me the logon path I needed. In this case: http://192.168.1.217/mjpg/video.mjpg
This URL to ispyconnect may be useful to anyone with other Airlink cameras.
