This integration sounds like what I’ve been looking for, and I’d love to give it a try but I’m falling down at the first hurdle.
I’ve got a Tuya-made camera that was originally configured in the phone app. Within Home Assistant v2026.7.1 I’ve installed the ONVIF integration to get a live webcam feed and the official Tuya integration to give me access to a few feature switches to turn motion tracking, floodlight, etc. on and off.
When it comes to the prerequisites for your integration, I’ve created and configured a Tuya IOT account (with appropriate API access) and installed and configured LocalTuya to use the same account.
Now I’ve installed TuyaRecordings (version 6f42123) through HACS, but when I try to add the integration I get an error dialog:
X Error
Config flow could not be loaded: 500 Internal Server Error Server got itself in trouble
The only new message in the HASS logs is:

ValueError: Unable to convert schema: <function _validate_media_storage_path at 0x7fda951d8d50>
Which implies that there’s something wrong with the definition of the data to be collected by the config flow. Since the error message mentioned “media storage path”, I tried pre-creating the /media/tuya_recordings folder mentioned in your README.md as the default storage location, but it didn’t change the outcome. I also tried going back to version 0.3.0-beta-3 but it was no different.
Do you have any suggestions what to try next?
