I made a simple application that publishes thermal camera images to MQTT. Home Assistant then uses that same topic to display the frames.
As you can see in this screen capture (21:9), it does work but HA receives multiple frames through MQTT before refreshing the interface.
Video notes:
- Every time my application publishes a frame you’ll see a logged message (about every second).
- When I manually connect to the mqtt topic we can see the warning logged by HA (as it cannot decode the payload). This is also printed at the same 1 second pace.
- We then see the image not being refreshed on every received frames.
Any ideas?
My configuration is as follow:
default_config:
group: !include groups.yaml
automation: !include automations.yaml
script: !include scripts.yaml
scene: !include scenes.yaml
mqtt:
broker: mosquitto
camera:
- platform: mqtt
topic: inside/thermal1
