EZViz Camera connection to HA

Configuration
8

Hi everybody. Thanks for sharing your info I managed to configure a EZVIZ camera using this conf:

name: Ingresso
input: rtsp://XXX:[email protected]:554

ant that’s it.

Though I am not finding how to setup the still image, any hints?

Does this also work for the ezTube 720p?

This one: https://www.amazon.it/EZVIZ-ezTube-720P-Stroboscopica-Disponibile/dp/B07BXNZL7B

Thanks

@teejay-87 yes I confirm that it works

11

Thank you very much

12

It also works for C1C
any idea on how to create a bonary sensor for motion detection and a switch for start/stop recording?

using streaming platform services is the only way?

Hey all , the hikvion settings work perfect including for binary_sensors:

My Configuration.yaml

- platform: hikvision
  # Your host IP below
  host: x.x.x.x 
  username: !secret hikvision_username
  password: !secret hikvision_password

- platform: generic
  name: Back Yard
  # Enter your username, password and IP
  still_image_url: "http://username:[email protected]/ISAPI/Streaming/channels/101/picture"
  stream_source: "rtsp://username:[email protected]:554/Streaming/Channels/101"

  - binary_sensor.back_yard_camera

Thanks all for this information and I got my stream working for the plus mini indoor with the generic platform. I did not manage to get the hikvision integration and motion detection working.
As I’m also looking into a whole ezviz camera system with NVR. Does anybody has experience with the CS-X5S-8W NVR for example. Before I buy it I want to know whether the sensors like motion detection and tamper detection from the hikvision integration work. This is more important then the stream for me.

Hi all,
I have a Ezviz CTQ6C camera. Is there a right configuration for this camera in hass?

16

ciao
ho un ezviz cb6
non è un problema di straming e trovo il corretto per l’immagine:

  • piattaforma:
    still_image_url generico : “ http://192.168.188.24/onvif/snapshot ”
    stream_source: “rtsp: // admin: [email protected]/Streaming/Channels/101”
    nome:
    autenticazione ingresso : “digest”
    ma non posso configura switch hikvision e sensore binario …
    binary_sensor:
  • piattaforma:
    host hikvision : 192.168.188.24
    nome utente: admin
    password: camera_psw
    switch:
  • piattaforma: hikvisioncam
    host: 192.168.188.24
    nome utente: admin
    password: camera_psw
    errore nel registro:
    1:
    status_code 405
    11:58 componenti / hikvisioncam / switch.py ​​(ERRORE) - il messaggio si è verificato per la prima volta alle 11:52 e confrontare 14 volte

2: si è verificato
un errore durante la connessione a http://192.168.188.24:80/MotionDetection/1/
11:58 components / hikvisioncam / switch.py ​​(ERRORE) - il messaggio si è verificato per la prima volta alle 11:52 e confrontare 13 volte

qualche aiuto ?

17

Could you show me your working config for the C1C please?

18

Did you have to do anything special for the binary sensor to work. My one wont let me access it from the http host IP.

19

All i did was add this to my configuration.yaml

binary_sensor:
  - platform: hikvision
    host: IP_ADDRESS
    username: user
    password: pass

restart your server should find all your sensors with no issue

20

Interesting what model do you have? I just got a ezviz mini plus (FW 5.2.7) but with the above config its popping an error.

What happens when you put the ip address in a browser, mine refuses connection.

I have the stream working with admin:code on the sticker and using the same details for the motion configuration.

Unable to fetch deviceInfo, error: HTTPConnectionPool(host='192.168.0.XXX', port=80): Max retries exceeded with url: /ISAPI/System/deviceInfo (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0xXXX>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused'))

21

Check your nvr settings for the below :

In order for the sensors to work the hikvision user must have the ‘Remote: Notify Surveillance Center/Trigger Alarm Output’ permission which can be enabled from the user management section of the web interface. Also the ‘WEB Authentication’ needs to be set to ‘digest/basic’ in the security/authentication section.

Also when it says connection refused it’s usually a authentication issue

22

Ahh ok interesting. I don’t have a hik nvr and just trying to connect directly to the camera.

I fear that http is locked out in this firmware. I added the camera to iVMS and can change some of the settings there but nothing in there for setting for digest/basic or enabling http or linkage method for the motion trigger. Everything seems to be locked down pretty tight.

I have two other hikvision cameras which allow direct login to the camera through http interface where the auth setting can be changed and for events to be passed back through binary sensors. I may have to bite the bullet and use some other motion detection method (blue iris/motion eye/ffmpeg)

In hindsight I should have just got another hikvision camera. Too bad there isnt that many wifi models.

23

Sorry this could not help. Good Luck I have setup motion eye before this and as far as i remember that work well.

I have removed all the hikvision stuff this morning as i got alot of wyze gear last night
Going to be setting up 6 x wyze cam 2 and 6 x Wyze cam pan aswell is 16 x motion censors and a whhopping 39 x door/window sensors

24

Why the move?

25

I saw there’s a lot of italian people there, maybe someone have tried with the Tim Cam? I’ve 2 of them, they only use the proprietary TIM app, and i don’t know if i can directly access trough ip (tried in my home network but i receive “connection refused”).
The cam is a Ezviz CS-CV206, i think using a custom firmware or something like that since won’t work with ezviz app but only with TIM app.

26

I’ve succeffully configured the cam, i can see it in entity but i can not see the stream. I can only see a black window with the loading icon forever…

Any ideas?

Hi,

I’m all new to home automation and just started with Rasberry pi and Hassio.

I succeeded to get my alarm (Verisure) and outdoor camera stream (c3w color night vision) to work. However I can’t sort out how to get access to the the Ezviz setting. What I would like to achieve is to get the Ezviz into Sleep mode when the alarm is off and make it active when it’s on.

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance!
