Nothing is as beautiful in the eyes of a suffering Brazilian as a ‘less than $20 bucks xing-ling onvif IP camera’.
- Andre Myszko, February 7, 2025
I dicided to open this topic to get help and help people that are trying to use ICsee cameras with onvif in home assistant (HAOS mode)
last discover:
OW thanks God… I received this error in HAOS > System > Logs:
TRYING OVER TCP:
** TRYING OVER HTTP:
I looks like a ‘HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED, Server returned 401 Unauthorized’ type of error, is there some one that can help me with that?
Overview:
Everything is working fine, the only problem is that the HAOS frontend display the camera image mainstream freezed just like a snapshot. Also the PTZ is already working (PAN and TILT only but that is ok… when I move the axis the camera moves in ICsee mobile app and no erros are shown in home assistant web browser console/network)
- Checking the network on the page I find this:
- looks like ‘ha-hls-player.ts:140’ can not fetch the request or something…
- no sure about what this ‘undefined’ register is… :,c

Environament:
- Raspberry Pi 5 4GB
- SSD card 128GB SanDisk
- HAOS (Ethernet cable direct to local network)
- Wifi Signal Repeater 2.4g (no router, same gateway provided by main network where my de pc and camera are connected)
- Icsee camera (wifi connection)
Used IPs: (used nmap and ‘ip route’ to find the info, ipconfig for win vm)
- IP gateway: 192.168.X.A
- IP repeater: 192.168.X.B
- IP haos: 192.168.X.C
- IP my linux notebook: 192.168.X.D
- IP icsee camera: 192.168.X.E
- IP kvm windows: 192.168.Y.A
- IP mask: 255.255.255.0
Icsee camera config and steps:
-
step 1:
Connected via Wifi using the mobile app (ip provided inside my subnet range: IP: 192.168.X.E) and updated the camera name and password for login -
step 2:
Creation of a kvm windows and downloaded the camera desktop app ‘VideoPlayTool’ so I can manage ‘Remote settings’. -
step 3:
Using the ‘Video Play Tool’ I:- Activated the option ‘System > Network > Onvif Check’
- Disabled ‘Network > DHCP’ connection and provided the static values for:
IP Addres(Icsee Camera IP)
Subnet Mask(255.255.255.0)
Internet GateWay (Home Network Gateway).
PS.: I’v tried with DHCP enable with same results…
-
step 4:
I enabled the IP ‘white list’ and added my:- network gateway IP
- my notebook IP
- my haos IP
Ps.: Tried without enableing IP filter with same results…
-
Other infos NetService/Network:
-
Network ports:
media port: 34567
http port: 80
Onvif port: 8899 -
RTSP: enabled on port 554
