Stream Component: Confirmed Cameras and Configurations

has anyone got audio working through the camera stream?

Hey did you have any luck configuring jpg url for the Wyze cams? If yes do you mind sharing the format of it?


How about error when open stream in home assistant?

I had to use the same config as yourself. I changed the second stream to H.264 the same as the primary stream however at a lower resolution.

Is there anyone out there using SV3C PoE 1080p bullet cams and got it working ok?

Either direct or via BlueIris I am not fussy!

I didn’t have any luck getting a still image. I just tell it in config to use the live stream for the image.

About the errors that show up hundreds
Of times regarding missing references or whatever. They’re still there. But the cams seem to be working despite. 15s delay

I’m using SV3C PoE 1080p cam and it works fine. I’m using mine direct. HA is installed using docker. The PTZ cam from SV3C on the other hand is giving me fits with the motion but the picture is great.

camera:

  • platform: generic
    still_image_url: “http://camera_ip/mjpeg/snap.cgi?chn=0”
    stream_source: “rtsp://user:pw@camera_ip:554/live/ch0”
    name: Achtertuin

My camera is a Happyegg chinese Wifi IP CAM. But it’s not available anymore.

I used Onvifer on my Android to figure out the still image and the video source. And now it is working great with this new component in Hassio. Before I used another component which gave very choppy playback.

Any chance you should share you yaml for it?

Here are my entries:

camera:
  - platform: ffmpeg
    input: !secret drivewaycamurl
    name: Driveway
  - platform: ffmpeg
    input: !secret backyardcamurl
    name: Backyard
  - platform: ffmpeg
    input: !secret southstallcamurl
    name: South Stalls
  - platform: ffmpeg
    input: !secret northstallcamurl
    name: North Stalls
  - platform: ffmpeg
    input: !secret pasturecamurl
    name: Pasture

Format of the URL is like this:

rtsp://admin:[email protected]/stream0

i have same issue, you solved it?

same issue, someone solved it?

What have you tried already? Share your log and yaml here to troubleshoot

I have mine working directly, grabbing the rtsp stream.

Been trying to get them working through motioneye as well, but no luck yet.

Can you share your HA config for that?
I can’t succeed

Do we know what the error Error demuxing stream: No dts in packet indicates?

Same camera, dafang hack

same configuration.yaml
stream:
camera:

  • platform: generic
    name: Camara Entrada
    still_image_url: https://192.168.x.x/cgi-bin/currentpic.cgi
    stream_source: rtsp://192.168.x.x:8554/unicast
    verify_ssl: false
    username: root
    password: xxx
    authentication: basic
    scan_interval: 5

same automation.yaml

alias: mandamos video a cast
trigger:
xxx
action:

  • data:
    entity_id: camera.camara_entrada
    media_player: media_player.kiii_pro
    service: camera.play_stream

i try with dev-service too.

And same issue, It seems it gonna work but black screen and i never see anything

Log dont show nothing.

I think is configuration of video and audio of Dafang, someone who has managed to get this camera working can share their video settings??

Thanks

I have zoneminder which exposes all the cameras.
I have tried the stream component but it doesn’t work

Here’s a working example on hassio v.0.94.2:

- platform: generic
  name: Xiaomi
  still_image_url: http://admin:[email protected]:80/cgi-bin/currentpic.cgi
  stream_source: rtsp://admin:[email protected]:554/ch0.h264
  verify_ssl: false
  username: admin
  password: pw
  authentication: basic

D-Link DCS-5030L

The following configuration works for me. YMMV

camera:
  - platform: mjpeg
    name: D-Link00 testcam
    still_image_url: "http://i.j.k.l/image/jpeg.cgi"
    mjpeg_url: "http://i.j.k.l/mjpeg.cgi"   
    username: !secret D-Link00username
    password: !secret D-Link00password
