Disregard it - it’s working now
Has anyone been able to get the visitor sensor to work with Alexa?
I tried to follow this guide to no avail.
I can’t find a way to lower the stream resolution to 1920x1080p. The only option available to me is the full 2560x1080p. I’m trying to set it up with Scrypted and HomeKit Secure Video but I’m not sure recordings work if the stream is not exactly 1920x1080… I don’t know if anyone also has tried HKSV with this doorbell.
Edit: I tried to add it to HKSV and it seems to be recording well without much configuration, albeit with a lower resolution than default. I just had to lower the bitrate from the default number 1 setting lower, to ensure streaming locally works every time. Before it seemed to refuse streaming sometimes.
I thought I’d share some of the automations I’ve created using Node Red for the Doorbell.
When someone rings my doorbell:
- My mobile will open the Reolink app
- I get a notification with a snapshot on my phone and my phone will say that someone has rang the door.
When the doorbell detects a person:
- I get a silent notification with a snapshot on my phone
When the door is opened:
- It will delete all notifications from the last 2 minutes from my mobile (e.g. for when you or visitors came to the door and then the door was opened).
- It will block person detected notifications for the next 5 minutes (it will not block the notifications that someone rang the doorbell) (e.g. for when you or the visitors leave the house or you stay chatting at the door for a while).
I will still make this a bit more advanced so that it only does the blocking/clearing of notifications when my alarm system is turned off.
I am also hoping Reolink will enable using the recorded replies using their API. This way I can turn the notifications to my mobile into actionable notifications that will make the doorbell speak those recorded replies (e.g. “leave the package at the front door”, “I’ll be there in a minute”,…)
Here’s how it looks like:
And here’s the code:

I’ve been hanging on in the hope that the Reolink PoE doorbell will be available to buy in the UK, but nothing is materialising and Reolink can’t even give an estimate when it is likely to be available.
I was flitting between Eufy or just going for Ring with a subscription, until I saw some reviews of the Reolink. This PoE version seems to be an ideal solution for my setup, if only I could get hold of one.
Has anyone else on here managed to get one in the UK?

I see the visitor sensor in the above-referenced HACS addon for this doorbell… but when i push the button, it doesn’t trip the sensor.
@ConfusedTA - First of all welcome to the forum! Secondly, thank you for the information. I had previously searched non-UK Amazon sites in case I could purchase from abroad, however even searching again now, I can’t find the camera available for delivery to the UK from the Amazon.de or .com sites. Do you have the link that you used to purchase so I can check if it shows as available please?
Hi Quizzical,
Thank you for sharing this automation. I have tried to adopt it but since it doesn’t work as expected I have a couple of questions that you can hopefully help with.
- Altough the Reolink app is installed on my device it doesn’t get opened when the doorbell is pressed. I am using an iPhone.
- I don’t get person detected messages, what do I need to do with the ‘Who’ option in the Define parameters block, currently it is set for ‘john&jane’?
@ConfusedTA Ah ok thank you anyway, I’ll just have to keep checking for availability. My cat5 cable is run and waiting to be connected as soon as I can get one of them delivered!!

1: yes that automation is made to work on Android. Have a look at the Home Assistant Companion app documentation whether this feature also works on Iphone or not and if so what needs to change.
2: I have created my own rather complex process to automate the sending of any type of notification to my android phone. It’s a bit too complex for sharing and wouldn’t work on you iphone. So the basic idea is that in the ‘define parameters’ node you have everything you need to send a notification to your phone in whatever way you prefer. The easiest option to do is is do add a call service node after that which calls upon the notification service using the parameters in the ‘define parameters’ node. How exactly the formatting works for the iphone I’m not sure. For android it looks like this:
And here is what I have as content for the Data part:
{
"title": "{{title}}",
"message": "{{message}}",
"data": {
"ttl": 0,
"importance": "high",
"priority": "high",
"vibrationPattern": "100, 1000, 100, 1000, 100",
"image": "{{{imageretrieveURL}}}",
"timeout": "{{timeout}}",
"persistent": "{{persistent}}",
"tag": "{{tag}}",
"sticky": "{{sticky}}",
"clickAction": "{{{clickaction}}}",
"actions": [
{
"action": "{{actioncode1}}",
"title": "{{actiontitle1}}"
},
{
"action": "{{actioncode2}}",
"title": "{{actiontitle2}}"
},
{
"action": "{{actioncode3}}",
"title": "{{actiontitle3}}"
}
]
}
}
Things that are empty it will not use so e.g. for now the action codes are empty in the ‘define parameters’ so the notifications I receive are not ‘actionable’ and I don’t specify a timeout either so the notifications don’t disappear after a set time.

Great, thank you so much!

Just got a beta firmware from reolink support which fixes the RTSP stream and also adds RTSP backchannel audio support.
I won’t be redistributing it but feel free to contact support about the RTSP stream motion smearing issue and they should happily give it. Mine had a build date of January 9.

Could you explain a bit more what this firmware brings as I didn’t really understand (sorry).
Does the backchannel audio mean that it supports two-way audio? That would be great because I have integrated the doorbell in synology surveillance station but no way to talk through the doorbell using that 
Yes, RTSP backchannel enables two way audio with applications like go2rtc, scripted, etc

Indeed, got this reply 6 days ago, they mention they will add more features incl 2-way audio support 
What was the fix for the rtsp stream?
RTSP stream had classic reolink motion smearing which made the stream unusable
Guys would you recommend the reolink doorbell ? Is it easily integrated with HA and all the motion and notifications available on HA? thanks
Are you speaking about this beta firmware?

Do you have 2-way audio working for onvif?
I asked Reolink for the beta firmware but they didn’t want to provide it
