Generic Camera - serving up image problem

Does anyone know if the problems with displaying a changing static image in lovelace have been fixed? I want to display as a popup the ‘Caller ID’ picture of contacts when they contact me or ring the doorbell and when I last attempted this months ago, bugs with the system prevented it from working and I had to serve up the image via my DuckDNS external URL in order to get it to work. I’d dearly just like to serve it locally, without using any external calls at all.
