I am running Hassio(latest version), on a RP3. I have setup 2 Amcrest cameras, and they are working OK. But, when I add a 3rd Camera, I get the following error, in the “States(entity) List”;
As far as Formatting Errors, I cut & pasted Cam3 config, from the Cam1 Config, then changed the pertinent info.
So I just C&P cam1 config, and just changed the NAME, from “1_Front” to “2_Front”, that worked.
When and corrected the whole NAME ans IP Address, nothing else, and that failed…
I put the IP Address, back to the Cam1 IP, and the Cams came up properly. It seems like I can’t use the 3rd IP Address…
Curious and trying to help (I intend to have three set up soon, so I hope it’s not a HASS issue), so apologies if you’ve already tried some of this.
Did you try eliminating the “scan_interval:” or “name:” elements in all three and starting it up that way?
I know the 10 second default is a little crazy, but it’s worth a try.
Maybe move your camera information to it’s own yaml file and put this in your main configuration file:
The issue that I was having, when I added the 3rd and 4th cameras. Was
because I had a BAD character in the text, that I was “Cutting & Pasting”
from one file, into the configuration file. I don’t use “Cut & Paste”, anymore.
I will now, type every character in, one by one.
