It seems here you are able to do a mini hack, from there should be easier for HA.

Has anyone tried this mini hack? Does it work? Do you still have working motion detection and recording like original firmware?

13

I successfully managed to hack. but I don’t know which command to put in the hassio configuration. someone can help me ?

14

I had the MJSXJ02CM Xiaomi camera into hassio.
1/ Hacked as @ignatiusr suggested
2/ Configure the camera using the IP ( http://<your-camera-ip/ )
3/ Add configuration into configurations.yaml

camera:
  - platform: generic
    name: Camera test
    still_image_url: Your url stream
    stream_source: Your url stream

4/ Add a card to your “home” with the entity ‘camera test’

@caroline5712 when load the hack firmware, can use the camera from mi home too?

I don’t know if it is modified original firmware or a complely new firmware.

16

It kinda works. No image but you can move it. I’m interested on having the PTZ in HA too. For now I got neither working except in the browser on the hacked camera web server.

17

You can’t really use the camera from the app (stream), but you can turn on/turn off, turn the camera without any problem. I don’t really need the stream into the app so i don’t mine. I don’t know if we can reset the firmware after being hacked, didn’t try yet.

18

Can run automation within the app too? Is it only the video that’s affected? I suppose you won’t be able to record any motion detection on the inserted we card then.
Please keep us posted in case you are able to revert the hack

19

I didn’t try yet, i don’t have much time to work on it but i will keep u guys updated!
I’m quite sure you won’t be able to record any motion on the inserted card since it is used to hack the firmware. I guess you have to find a way to do it into HA.

20

Anyone here got a URL to a snapshot or still image to make the display in HA easier ?
Also any idea of exposing PTR too ?

21

I figured it out. You can record motion using EyeMotion.
You can also revert the hack without any trouble i just tried.

22

You need to access the IP of your camera (you can find it in your Xiaomi app). You will get an interface with an streaming URL on it.

I would like to activate the xiaomi 360 camera from home assistant when i’m out from home. There’s a way to do it?

25

Thanks for the answer but I found that, I was looking for snapshots in JPG for HA.

26

If running the MotionEye on a Docker/Nas and Home Assistant on a NUC.
How do i then get the status into my HA on the NUC, I have the cam and it works, but can’t make any automations bc. the cam status inside HA always is “idle”.

Can I add the MotionEye integration inside HA and point at the MotionEye Docker on my NAS?

Hi guys, I know it’s an old topic. However, I was wondering.
I have five of those xiaomi 360 cameras and am trying to find a way to connect them to hassio. I tried the hack mentioned above, but the camera only renames the flash file. I read somewhere this is due to xiaomi’s new firmware (mine is version 4.1+). So apparently the camera knows this is a hacky firmware and doesn’t let the camera to downgrade.
Anyway, anybody could help me here? Thanks.

28

Hi, did you find any solution. I need to buy camera and I am wondering about these cameras

29

Hey, probably you already bought a camera. At the moment I used Xiaomi Miot integration through hacs. But the images are not good enough. I don’t recommend buying xiaomi cameras to use with home assistant.
