Yi vs xiaomi camera component

Minims · June 23, 2018, 9:47am

Hi,

I saw there is now 2 components for the Yi Camera :

Yi Home
Xiaomi

For me it seems to be the same thing for my 27US. Which one is the best ? Is there some difference i have not seen ?

Thanks

I noticed it this morning. My 2 Yi cameras have stopped working since the 0.72.0 update this morning so have just tried the Xiaomi settings on my Yi 47US cameras without success. Rolling it back now.

Have managed to get 1 camera showing again briefly (now gone again) but not the other. Rebooted both my Pi and both cameras via their web interface. Get this error in the logs

Error while fetching video: Waiting for ('200',) but got 250 [' Operation successful']

OK - fixed it. Found PR 14944 which changes the FFMPEG argument. Changed mine from

ffmpeg_arguments: ‘-vf scale=800:450’
to
ffmpeg_arguments: -s 800x450

And that fixed my issue.

Hopefully the dev @bachya will get the docs updated to show the change.

FYI, that PR does nothing to change the underlying FFMPEG calls, so the original arguments should work fine.

Hello Aaron,

Not sure what’s happening then as my Yi cameras work on a restart for a few minutes then throw the following error

Error while fetching video: Waiting for ('200',) but got 421 [' Timeout']

Might need to raise an issue on this one as they worked fine before 0.72.0

After review, seeing the same: getting lots of BrokenPipeError exceptions in the logs. Bug and PR submitted for 0.72.1.

bachya · June 23, 2018, 7:24pm

Another quick follow up: I’ve merged the fix in for 0.72.1, but in the meantime, you can always copy the upcoming fixes into <CONFIG_DIR>/custom_components/camera/yi.py.

Customer component has sorted it for me

hmm well, I dont see this working - I get a picture into hass but the video component always ends in not available … I see that there is an ftp call but no stream becomes available …

I got 2 cams with 0.1.4b2 and 0.1.5 with the changes ftp configuration for testing and both behave the same
