I am wondering if there is a way to save an image from the connected Nest Cam into a local or shared drive. I would like to save one image every day at an exact time in order to create a time lapse video few months later.
I believe it would be the best approach for me to use HA for this since it is already connected, running 24/7, it has the time component and Nest Cam has a limitation of 2 image/minute anyway which used by HA…
Does anyone know if it is doable and if it is how to do it?
@RyanRayNeff - I did figured it out, see the Python code below. It is working pretty well, you have to change your camera API URL in the code and run it with a CRON job periodically.
The only problem is that Nest standby quality is really bad. Nest only provide HD image quality if you have the subscription OR actively watching the feed. I did not found a way yet to watch it for days. If I open it in any browser, it works for about a day and I have to refresh the page…
