Hello @Chaoscontrol could you please share the configuration you set in Frigate to integrate E1 Pro?
Thanks
Here you go @GitWally. I also left the config of the Reolink Doorbell in case itâs useful for anyone.
go2rtc:
log:
# AAC Audio required for recordings and detection, Opus required only for webRTC Live View (2-way audio)

doorbell: # Reolink Doorbell WiFi

## Frigate docs recommend HTTP+FLV connection for Reolink Doorbell, but only RTSP allows for 2-way audio AFAIK, need testing
## #video=copy is needed for a single line ffmpeg config when using audio tags, or else video stream is dropped
## THIS INCREASES VOL AND PREVENTS THE AUDIO COMING OUT FROM THE CAMERA SOUNDING MUFFLED

Thanks for sharing!
The problem I have now is why I donât see PTZ controls even if I added ONVIF.
May be E1 PRO is not ONVIF conformant since it is not listed?
I tried also to add it with ONVIF integration but I cannot see controls anyhow to move around the camera from HA, while it can be managed by its own app.
I think itâs a matter of your own setup. I can assure you it works. Buttons show in Frigate for me (last beta, but they also did in 0.14), and they work just fine. Also in the Frigate card.
Check your logs to make sure thereâs no ONVIF related error. I think I had to enable ONVIF through the Reolink PC app. In the mobile app the option didnât show IIRC.

Many thanks!
Now I can PTZ buttons!
Hello @Chaoscontrol you say:
Could you paste also the configuration you use?
Frigate card documentation says it should be âout of the boxâ, if the engine is Frigate itself, and in Frigate you see PTZ controls.
But in my card I canât see any PTZ control!
Thanks again
Since Frigate updated to 0.14 I havenât been using the card itself, as I prefer using the Frigate UI, but here it is, and it still works.
The PTZ is used by using HA action calls. I donât remember why and I think I originally had it a different way, but I believe it was more reliable (or I just liked the buttons more) this way so I changed it.

Also I like much more the Frigate UI, but since I am the only admin and I need other people to do some things, I still use the Frigate Card.
As far as I can see to get buttons in the Frigate Card you have to add PTZ controls adding elements.
But in the documentation I found:
The card supports using PTZ controls to conveniently control pan, tilt and zoom for cameras. If youâre using a Frigate camera, and Frigate itself shows PTZ controls, this should work straight out of the box without any extra configuration:
Thatâs why I was wondering what was wrong in my card.
Anyhow, thanks again for big time saving!
