YI 1080p home camera image not avaible

Hi all, i have a problem with my new YI camera 1080p home.

I did all the process in the link " https://github.com/shadow-1/yi-hack-v3 ". I installed the latest version supported by hassio, 0.1.4-beta2 version. After the reboot, i can view some parameters from the ip address or via ftp or telnet. I changed the password of the root user with the telnet and add to the config file on hassio the same code of this link: " https://www.home-assistant.io/components/camera.yi/ " changing ip address, password and name. But in home assistant the camera still unavailable.

the problem can be the version of the firmware of the cam? I saw in the github link it will be " Stock firmware is version 2.0.0.1A_201612051401. " but mine is " 2.1.0.0A_201703071456 "

Thank’s for any help,
Massimo

Can you download files under the configured path via ftp?

Hi Massimo,

had about the same problem. What solved my problem was install ffmpeg on my computer hassbian. It was missing it.

other thing you can try is installing 0.1.5, then:

  • connect thru telnet/ssh
  • change password
  • edit /home/yi-hack-v3/script/system.sh
    -> replace line 36 ( pure-ftpd -B ) with tcpsvd -vE 0.0.0.0 21 ftpd -w &
  • reboot camera

Ciao @Massimo_Bergi ,
sono molto ignorante in materia, ma ho visto che sei riuscito ad installare la yi 1080p cam
. io purtroppo non riesco! non riesco neanche ad eseguire il telnet dell’indirizzo ip della video camera. posso chiederti come se riuscito a configurare in home assistant la yi 1080p cam?

Grazie!
