I’m on the latest version of HA (v0.99.1) and use the foscam integration for 5 cameras and I’m not having any issues.
are you sure you are inputting the correct IP address and Port for the camera’s in the config?
And make sure the camera is set up correctly. for example, I don’t use https to access my cameras. I use just http. I don’t know if that makes any difference but it could be a similar camera set up issue.
I just looked at what I use for my cameras and realized that I use a custom component for my one SD foscam (FI8910W). You could probably use it too.
However, the component hasn’t been updated in a while (but it still works perfectly fine) so the instructions still have the old way of installing things before “the great migration”.
It’s easy enough to change how you install it tho. If you want to try it just let me know and I can post the updated install instructions here.
I had a lot of problems recently with my two Foscam camera’s, one a C2, the other one a FI9961EP camera, using the standard Foscam integration. I tried many different solutions, including using the Synology Surveillance one.
But the best solution is to use the ONVIF integration.
First check whether your camera supports ONVIF (using the Foscam VMS software, under setup), then note the relevant port, my ports were 888.
Then go to HA Integrations and search for the ONVIF integration.
To set it up enter the camera name, the local IP address and the ONVIF port number. On the next screen fill in the Username and Password (you need it). Hit enter and you have created two new entities, one for each camera profile:
For me only profile 0 works. But it works like a charm. Use one of the picture entity Lovelace front end cards to present a live stream from the camera.
