That works indeed, but how do you stop it?
Theres no camera.stop_stream
It doesnt work with the camera in the doorbell either + it takes quite some time to show it
You’ll notice I only copied that portion of my automation (you can’t see the mode). Just add in a delay of however long you want the stream to last and then you can stop. I thought @anon63427907 was just wanting someone to make sure it worked and I had already done so yesterday so I knew it was.
You guys are having buffering issues too with the streams?
Here, it plays, then the spinning circle comes, then plays, back the spinning circle etc etc
Hi all,
I would like to bring an important topic into discussion.
You might notice that non-RTSP based cameras are difficult to manage, configure,
debug from integration perspective and main reason for me is using file based video output.
Also, there are some left over files across Home Assistant folders which
I am having hard time to clean. What I am going to describe below will be valid for
non-RTSP based cameras but everyone is welcome to participate.
I have modified the integration and it will require you to install another
new docker `RTSP Simple Server` so incoming video chunks will be forwarded to
add on and video streaming will be watched over RTSP. More importantly, I see a
huge improvement in streaming latency, 12 secs vs 6 secs.
**Why I would like to discuss this with you;** I want to deprecate the support of file
based streaming and everyone to install this add on. I will not remove existing
functionality of file based streaming but I also will not put time to investigate it.
Users who want to stick with file based streaming need to debug on their own and
solve the problem. All code changes are welcome into repository.
**Now, it is your turn, shoot :slight_smile:**
Update: integration has been updated recently, it supports better error handling, faster file based p2p streaming (8 seconds) and much more faster RTSP server based p2p streaming (5 seconds).
Now you have an option to use RTSP server add on on integration options page or stick with file based streaming.
Please update your setup over HACS, follow readme to install new add on and raise issues if needed.
Next: alarm control panel is on the way, coming in next couple of hours
Thanks so much for all your work with this integration! I can now easily set guard mode through HA, something I have dreamed off since Day 1 of owning my Eufy cameras
How often do the battery sensors update out of interest? Mine hasn’t updated in 5hrs so just wanted to know does it also report if guard mode is anything, or does it need to be a specific value like away?
When disarmed, no motion sensors will be received.
You can create custom guard modes and call yhem with services to keep notifications on but alarming off.
i tried the second addon rtsp simple server addon
i enable it in configuration
Now my doorbell isnt streaming anymore
