Hi.
You are well done.
I repeated everything and everything works for me. But … there are a few management questions.

Is the Smart Cat Eye working with the Gateway? Any or only some? And is it possible to save videos to a nas maybe or use different cloud then china?
Anybody is using this?

Hello everybody!

I made it!
I have an Aqara Hub camera lumi.camera.aq1 and HomeAssistant server in Docker on Debian PC.
Until this day, the attempts were unsuccessful, but I carefully studied this thread and did not give up.

Here is what has been done:
I connected via ssh to a server with hassio.
All attempts with python and miio have failed.
I don’t have a RaspberryPi so I used this image by @hal9000: Docker Hub
I received the token and IP in the MiHome by vevs app (just tap rename on my cam).
Following the instructions, I entered the command in the terminal:
docker pull humpedli/docker-xiaomi-aqara-rtsp
Waited for it to download.
Then I entered one long command:
(you need to replace ** with your numbers)

docker run --name xiaomi-aqara-rtsp\
  --restart=always \
  -e IP=192.168.**.*** \
  -e TOKEN=****************************** \
  -p 8554:8554 \
  -d humpedli/docker-xiaomi-aqara-rtsp

After that, I received a long token in response.
Checked status:

docker log xiaomi-aqara-rtsp

I received the following answer (replaced some numbers with **):

Starting proxy...
Starting RTSP server on "rtsp://172.17.*.*:8554/"
(Using port 80 for optional RTSP-over-HTTP tunneling.)
[P2P client] starting...
IOTC_Initialize2...
IOTC_Connect_ByUID_Parallel...SID:0
avClientStart2... userName: admin passWord: ***********
avClientStart2 mAvIndex=0
startIOTC video ret=0
startIOTC audio ret=0
[P2P client] running
[ReceiveVideo] Running
[ReceiveAudio] Running

I tried to open the stream in VLC and IP cam viewer, but it didn’t work.

Then I opened Home Assistant and simply added this stream to the config:

camera:
  platform: ffmpeg
    input: -rtsp_transport tcp -i rtsp://172.17.*.*:8554
    name: Aqara Hub Cam

And I created a card in ui-lovelace:

            -type: picture-entity
              entity: camera.aqara_hub_cam
              camera_view: live
              show_state: false
              show_name: false

After restarting home assistant, I saw a stream in the card !!

Huge thanks to the creator of this docker video2proxy image - @hal9000!

Hi,

Does anyone have a working docker image today?
At the moment there is a bug that no one has fixed on github

python3 -c "import miio;result = miio.device.Device('192.168.1.198', 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx').send('get_ipcprop', ['all']);print(result['p2p_id']);"
Traceback (most recent call last):
