Eufy Security Integration

How is this mentioned in your question? You are saying image updates are not working for you other than restarting add-on.

You can create a feature request to bropat and ask him if he can raise an event for regular forced updates, he can help.

And please ask your question fully assuming that i have zero knowledge on what you have done and what you want.

I cannot help with these screenshots. Create an issue over github and follow the bug template.

@bobaibalat You’re doing nothing wrong. There is no support for those devices. Although I have them too, and have put in enhancement requests for them.

There’s a bunch of enhancement requests to @bropat for this device. Maybe someday…

You should enter the ip of the add on, not the ip of the homebase. The addon will connect automatically to the homebase.

Oké we have next step work only this ! Where can i find this code?

[RT1080 (Ronald)]

I suggest you have a look at the GitHub instructions for the integration. Everything is explained.

[Homeotte41 (Jonathan)]

is there also that chapta code there? explanation

So I should receive a code by email, but I don’t see it

[RT1080 (Ronald)]

Yes. Under 3.6

[anon63427907]

Just a clarification, captcha code is received from home assistant devices/integrations page.

Two factor authentication is received through email.

[Homeotte41 (Jonathan)]

Oké thats clear, only i see nowhere the captcha,
or should it be included in the logbook

Can we the code see in the add-on logboek?

Hi,
Is there any way to make the “event image” to update. I still haven´t been able to update those images, they are still showing the first images the camera observed since I set them up.

I know a lot of people have been trying to plug in tools like Frigate with their Eufy wifi & battery-powered cameras via RTSP. I created a new thread (or message, whatever the appropriate name is on this platform) if people are interested. I’m looking for feedback and if anyone can help package this into a proper add-on down the line.

Proof of concept: feeding Eufy's intermittent RTSP streams from wifi/battery cameras to Frigate

Hey everyone. I’ve been thinking about this for a couple of weeks now. The problem is that natively, Frigate can’t use RTSP streams from wifi & battery powered Eufy cameras. The way Eufy make them work is that the camera or homebase will only send the feed when a motion is detected. It’s been well documented that there is no out-of-the-box solution to integrate those streams with Frigate (I remember reading dozens of questions/articles/stackoverflows about it, with the same conclusion every ti…

I’ve actually come up with an alternative solution that works for me with absolute reliability. The trick is to set up Tasker with a plug-in called AutoNotification, to install the Eufy app on the tablet, and to then have tasker automatically “click” on the doorbell notification when it is received to open the Eufy app (which automatically opens the right camera with the feed already “on”). I created a separate thread/post about it here:

Security cameras - view feed automatically (Eufy+Tasker+AutoNotification)

I was looking into several different solutions for getting a feed of the security cameras (I’m using Eufy cameras, but this guide can be applied to any other brand as well, as long as several conditions are met, as will be explained below). I got started with the custom Eufy integration (cheers to @anon63427907 for all the hard work there) This was not too difficult to set up, however the feed was unreliable, took a very long time to be seen on the HA dashboard, sometimes getting error message…

I’m having the same problem. It used to work well, then it stopped. Now I only see the image it gets when the plugin is restarted.

Anyone used the custom button card to tap and to show the live stream of an eufy camera? (with the ability to stop it)

[Frank_Beetz]

Not sure if this helps, but I wanted to see the live feed on my TV and I ended up writing 2 scripts:

1. A script that activates the stream and then calls the live feed card (in my case a picture elements)
2. Another script that stops the stream and goes back to my overview card (another picture elements)

The live feed card yaml looks like this:

You can share the exact code using triple quotes and interested parties can use it easily.

anyone figured this out?

Is it possible.to automatically save the motion event videos from my doorbell camera in Home Assistant? In the Eufy app all of my motion events have a short video I can play, but it seems this integration only takes a snapshot, and doesn’t save the whole video anywhere? Is there any way around this, or is it just a feature that’s not yet implemented?
