Hello everyone,
Wondering, is there a creative way to expose cameras and an Amazon Ring doorbell to Aqara from Home Assistant (or differently) to view and control them via Aqara Hub S1 plus / through Hub M100?
I was naive enough to assume that it’ll be a breeze task via Matter when I was purchasing the panel.
Little did I know that Matter doesn’t support cameras as it stands now.
I was successful exposing switches, sensors via Matter Hub.
However, the real goal of getting this panel was to use it for media.
Based on my observations so far:
- Matter is the only way to add third party manufacturers devices to Aqara app
- There’s “third party devices” section but it seems to mention irrelevant brands for the goal: Tesla and Sonos
- HomeKit integration seems to be one way: Aqara to Apple Home, not the other way around
I’ve got a few ring devices with the hub. And also a few camera from Reolink, Dahua.
The main goals are:
- Access video stream
- Play doorbell sound on the panel.
Appreciate you help in advance.
Thank you.
