Hey folks. so I can intergrated my unifi protect system to my HA. It perfectly and like a charm. I can add stream cards into dashboards and its very much showing the video in real time. The one issue however is on the home assistant iOS app. I have created a dummy dashboard with a photo glance card and a picture entity card. Both have their camera_view attribute set to “live”. When viewing this on chrome on my mac or on chrome on my iphone, the feed is showing and responding in real time. However the same dashboard in the IOS app, doesnt reall respond. When you first open it the feed updates, but then after that no. Any idea to get the app working and ensure the stream shows in real time just like a browser?
Which quality of stream are you accessing from the Unifi? The ‘high resolution channel’ uses much more bandwidth.
Are the issues only present when on the WiFi, or remote, or both?
You can try the Advanced Camera Card - HACS which lets you set a whole bunch of settings.
Note that my camera’s don’t really play live either when viewing from a dashboard, they update every second or so. When actually opening the stream and clicking the play button, they do.
hey i cant click on that link …
Should work now, bad paste (the ‘h’ in ‘http’ fell off)
