I have a hard drive dedicated to my camera recordings. What is the prefered way to add this volume to the motioneye addon? Do I need to do it as a network share? Or is it possible to specify a volume in the config options? I also do not mind mounting it to the main homeassistant container if that is accessible to motioneye since I am assuming that would make it easier to incorporate the videos into lovelace (eg. a page for the last 5 motion events on each camera).

My Pi3 B+ is getting fried with motioneye running as a HASSIO add-on, so installed Motioneye on Ubuntu in a virtualbox on a WIN10 machine on the same network as my HASSIO Pi. Is there any way to integrate that new Motioneye instance into HASSIO “as if” it were an add-on?

Have look here…there is my webhook used in motioneye and node-red

Yes you can do it by enabling video streaming in each of your cams and get the URL from there:

Any news to this?

Great help!

Update: please ignore I found the link you referenced earlier

Hi Carlo,

Would you mind elaborating a little on how you fixed the issue with your reolink cameras in motioneye. I just installed 2 of the 420 POE cameras and it is really making my CPU work hard just from streaming. I have turned off video recording and the CPU is going to 100%. I used the standard rtsp link to set it up.


These are the 5mp versions but I have selected 1920x1080. Any tips would be welcomed.
Cheers

Can anybody tell me if it’s possible to have the motion detection get turned on when I enable my alarm?
I did find something about enabling motion_webcontrol and then use something like wget -O- "http://192.168.1.14:7999/1/detection/start" >/dev/null to start it, but when I enable motion_webcontrol, I can’t reach any webserver on port 7999.

Hi
I have same problem :grimacing:

you success??

I’m afraid not :frowning:

Does someone success connect esp32 cam to motionEye ?

I used ESPHOME addon.

this my code :

substitutions:

  hostname: 'camesp'
  ssid: '123'
  password: '123'
  
esphome:
  name: $hostname

Try something like this as stream URL:

http://<my_ha_server>/api/camera_proxy_stream/camera.<my_esphome_device_name>?token=<my_ha_token_for_the_device>

It’s really give some video stream to 1-2 hours
After it give 401 error

In addition
The Api key its always changing
Why it’s happen?

You can use arduino Camera Example code with motionEye, it works perfect for me.

I do it to
When it’s on MotionEye
I cant add the camera at the HA dashboard

It’s or Motioneye or HA dashboard

I want see the camera in HA + Motioneye

You can add stram from motion eye to HA. Video streaming ->Streaming URL
