I followed the setup instructions as described and downloaded the firmware (.bin file), which I installed on the ESP32 without any errors. However, when I check the log files, I see the following errors:
I saw some posts with these errors but it doesn’t fix the issue.
In Home Assistant, I’m able to add the ESP32, but I’m getting any signal. I assume this may be related to the errors mentioned above. Does anyone have any ideas on what might be wrong with my configuration?
Finaly, it is working but not with the EPS-Home integration. I upload this code to the camera and I have access to the following IP adress http://xxx.xx.xx.xx/capture.

It gives me a picture, as the streaming does not work due to this error:
E (477) camera: JPEG format is not supported on this sensor
Once I have the picture, I can use the generic camera integration to see the image. This is not the most beautiful solution but it works until I found why the JPEG format does not work.
