Any suggestions on how to get a snapshot photo in the notification instead of what’s showing? I just switched over from HA Supervised to HAOS in a docker container - not sure if that changes anything. Notifications work great, but not sure why it doesn’t have a photo instead of it showing some text. The HA app is not connected to the local URL so that I can have access to the app whether on the LAN or not. Also, I was wondering why live view doesn’t show an entity? Thank you.
I am using this blueprint for a while and it’s working well. I get the notification and can use the actionable buttons to view clip and snapshot.
However now I decided to try one button to view stream. It occasionally works but other times I get 403: forbidden.
It has worked at home and away, and also get the error at home and away on different occasions. Even when I get the error the clip will play and I can access the ha app. So not a connection issue as such. I am using HA cloud for access.
I also don’t think this has to do with your URL built. I have worked to take cloudflare out of the picture and it still doesn’t play directly in a safari browser.
3 Theories…
Cloudflare caching or certificate, etc. I am using cloudflare, but I can reproduce this when I access it by localip:8123.
Safari doesn’t support HTTP 200 for playing mp4, and some say it should be returning 206, but cannot confirm this yet. (Note, same HTTP return code 200 works on edge/chrome/etc.)
The encoding is using a profile unsupported by iOS Safari (or mac too I guess). Finding many pages which indicate it should be baseline and perhaps < profile 4.1. However, to get 2k video, you need 5.1… so…
I am leaning more to #3, as In Sept when this worked, I don’t think anything would have changed the HTTP result code for HA hosted links… Also, I did move to Frigate 0.15, which moved to ffmpeg 7.0. May be I should try going back to 5.0…
Things which changed since this last worked for me:
HA 2024.11 (broke all playing even via media browser) which is mostly working with 2024.12 except for safari/ios.
Updated App Notification alert template to 0.14g, so I can alert on reviews.
Updated Frigate to 0.15 Beta.
Will keep digging… there is no network errors, I can valdate that with browser devtools.
Thank you. Not sure what the issue is, as it does take me to the app to view Frigate. If anyone else had this issue and resolved it, please let me know what steps I need to take.
I have the Frigate integration 5.6.0 installed and if I manual test by changing the URL to master.m3u8, it doesn’t work and I got a 502 error.
This happens even with a direct local contact to http at IP on port 8123. As in, no extra nginx or Cloudflare services in between. I haven’t had time to dig deeper yet.
Is it possible to easily toggle all these on/off as a group? I want a button on my dashboard to easily disable/enable the notifications for all my cameras.
