MyQ door opener with camera - how to detect camera?

I have a liftmaster 88503 door opener.

it works great with HA, except the entities it detects are:

  • the door opener cover, as expected
  • amusingly the flap of the webcam

… but not the actual camera.

for example I can see that the state of my camera is

friendly_name: Hub 2 Camera
supported_features: 3
device_class: garage

and it’s state is open but there doesn’t appear to be a way to actually render what the camera is seeing?

any ideas?

I just installed a Chamberlain B which looks identical to your liftmaster except it is blue. I ended up with a cover.garage_door_camera which is not useful. My guess is that the MyQ api doesn’t allow any service to get access to the camera. I am not that surprised. At least I can connect to the camera through the MyQ app, but that is not that terribly useful. I have no idea if it is streaming from garage camera to myq to me or if it is a direct connect. If it is streaming through MyQ cloud then I might not use it anymore. Regardless, the garage door is super quiet and nice otherwise. It only cost a little bit more to get the unit with a camera and battery backup so it is not too bad.

Did you ever figure this out?
