Reolink e1pro ptz error

Configuration
1

i can view the web cam, but using the following script:

  script:
    testing:
      alias: test!
      sequence:
      - service: camera.onvif_ptz
        data:
          entity_id: camera.reolink4mp
          pan: "LEFT"
          tilt: "NONE"
          zoom: "NONE"

generates the following error:
RuntimeError: Cannot be called from within the event loop

any idea?

That exclamation mark might be part of your problem.

Did you get this figured out? I am still trying to figure out how to view my reolink e1 pro in Home-Assitant.

Nevermind I figured it out.

I added it using onvif integration it worked great!

Hello,

I used the ONVIF integration. I entered the IP address of the camera and the onvif port which was 5000, in my case. Then entered admin as the username and the password I setup in the app.

What about ptz. Did you get that to work out too.

Hi! For anyone coming here, as I did, mine worked using this:

Example of picture-glance card:

- type: picture-glance
        camera_image: camera.reolink_e1pro_livingroom_profile001_substream
        camera_view: live
        entities:
          - entity: camera.reolink_e1pro_livingroom_profile001_substream
            icon: mdi:arrow-down-drop-circle-outline
            tap_action:
              action: call-service
              service: onvif.ptz
              service_data:
                entity_id: camera.reolink_e1pro_livingroom_profile001_substream
                tilt: DOWN
                move_mode: ContinuousMove

It does not work if you do not use the ContinuousMove and I’m not sure if you can do both pan and tilt at the same time.
