Im getting Unknown Error Occurred when trying to add my cctv cameras to home assistant
the code I am adding is
rtsp://xxx:[email protected]:5555/live/h264/High
which is working fine in VLC
Do you have default_config: or stream: in your configuration.yaml file?
You may also need ffmpeg: depending on your install type.
Are you using the Generic camera integration?
yes Im trying to use the Generic Camera Integration
stream is disable in my config as was getting error in log saying no longer use
also in the media section cameras nothing shows up but when I used camera.yaml they would show up in HAlovelace but in media Cameras it would say 11 incompatible items hidden
Not sure what that was, it is most definitely still in use: Stream - Home Assistant
If you want to use rtsp you need default_config: or stream: in your configuration.yaml
Tom thanks
so ok I have re Added stream: to my config
log saying
Invalid config
The following integrations and platforms could not be set up:
loading logs says
Loading generic IP camera via configuration.yaml is deprecated, it will be automatically imported. Once you have confirmed correct operation, please remove ‘generic’ (IP camera) section(s) from configuration.yaml
so do I delete my camera.yaml
With the generic integration, all you will fill out is the camera address, the Stream Source URL. Dont touch anything else.
That is if you are using the UI and not adding by YAML.
ok marked out my cameras.yaml
restart
Error during setup of component stream

What install method are you running?
I am running core osx
Try adding ffmpeg: as well.
ffmpeg:
ffmpeg_bin: /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg
is already added
Well you are missing some dependencies and as you have chosen an advanced installation method you are expected to know how to fix it. Unfortunately I do not.
