Also to note if you don't want to use your main wyze account due to openly using password, you can setup a new wyze account then share the cameras you want to use this docker container with the new account. Thus if something does happen your main account isn't breached.
Great tip! 👍
Yes! Excellent tip I wouldn't have thought of! Thanks!
I just received my first Wyze Cam and followed your instructions. Absolutely no problems and went as smoothly as you can ask for. It took me abouy 5 times longer than it should have as I played the video and would pause and perform the task. Everything went perfectly. This is one of the top instructional videos, if not the top, instructional videos I have used on YT. It was almost like having you present walking me through it!
Great video!
I don't know if it's only me (probably) , but I found that Lon is back with more useful videos. Reviews of PC are good sometimes, but quickly become redundant. Keep up the great work, as always!
Most of these have come from viewer suggestions! So the more the merrier!
Great video! I just learned about the cameras last night and for the price I figured they'd be fun to play with so I ordered a couple. I've spent all night researching how to get them to record to Synology Surveillance Station and found a lot of hacks. I wish I would have found your video about 14 hours ago!
Thanks for this video, this breathes a ton of new functionality into my Wyze cams, and is a great toe-in-the-water for Docker functionality on synology.
Thank you. Am currently running V2 wyze but am considering a rotating camera. Glad there's still an option without being subscripted to death.
your choice. $1 donate poor africa kids a month or $2 for wyze sub a month.
I've been wanting to use my Wyze cams with my Synology NAS, so thank you for sharing this Lon. 👍👍
Great video! I was hesitant at first as I have all my Wyze cams on an different IOT network (using Unifi). However, I tried this on one and it works just fine!
Great video. I have Wyze cams and a Synology, and was vaguely familiar with RTSP, Docker, and Surveillance Station. This tutorial broke it down into simple steps I could easily follow.
what model cams are you using
Really excellent setup. Versatile and dynamic. Love it.
Thank you. This is an excellent video that was very helpful to me for getting my wyze cameras into Blue Iris software. I find many of your videos helpful. Thank you again.
Absolutely brilliant!! Thanks Lon!! 👍
Great video!! Going to install it tonight on my OMV server.
i keep getting port 1935 is being used by another service.
use a different port like he does for 5080 to 5000
Thanks Lon. I just did the same on my QNAP with more or less the same steps, except I used the docker command line with a docker-compose.yml file. The QVR Pro surveillance app on QNAP requires one to select "Generic Camera" as the brand and camera type when setting up the camera manually, then it was just copying and pasting in the RSTP URL.
Incredibly useful video - thank you so so much - very clear and working well!
This actually sold me on Wyze cameras. I like being able to redistribute streams from my Wyze account to my motioneye. I wish this was more feasible for ring and adt cameras.
Interesting. I'm going to have to rewatch this. Subscribed. 👊
One thing that may help is to ensure in the Synology firewall you have enabled port 443 as allowed. Wyze bridge uses this to authenticate and without it you'll see errors in the container log about user and auth failing repeatedly. Appreciate the video Lon, keep up the Synology love!
Thanks for the tip! Any advice where I've entered 5080 as the local port and 5000 as the container port but 5000 still redirecting to 5001?
I am having this issue, but I am not sure I totally understand your instructions. Where do I go to allow 443 to be used?
from your firewall, you just add port 443.@@stewartyt7119
@@stewartyt7119 firewall settings in security on your nas. mine are allow that port but still dont get nothing.
Thanks, Lon…….very helpful video!
This is excellent content. Much appreciated!
Awesome. Looking forward to getting it working with Home Assistant.
You think will work?
@@juliofeliu3769 I believe so. Going to try it on a pi or other Linux based sbc
@@juliofeliu3769 there’s already a Home Assistant add in. Made it super easy.
Good video, well detailed, very useful! Thanks !
I now have my daughter sleeping on my 2nd monitor while I play wow at night. Thank you sir.
Thank you for the highly informative video. Has anyone experienced problems connecting to Surveillance Station, but the bridge and RTSP feed are working perfectly? I even turned off the firewall and disconnected the VPN.
I like this brand as it offers stability and security
Great video, I was looking into this. Do you know how to bring Wyze Camera's into Scripted? Furthermore into HomeKit? That would be an awesome idea for a video. thanks
Hey Lon, thanks for the presentation. Worked for me with one caveat. I have two WYZE pan-cams v2 running RTSP firmware to BlueIris and SS. On this docker container those two but not two others (Outdoor cam and a Cam v3) have the video 180º. Tried resetting them via the Wyze software but to
no effect. Hate to think it is the RTSP firmware causing this bug.
Thanks great video , I got my Wyze cam working. Could you do the same type of video for eufy camera’s, specially E40 solo cam?
I like this , I going try this
Hello... The first camera installed great... I am unsure how to expand now that I have proven that the WYZE are great cameras that work on my NAS. Anyway, I will watch the video a few more times to see if I missed how to add an additional camera to the container.
Thanks great video ion
Thanks!
Thanks Much !
please do a video for getting wyze into homekit through some of these apps on the synology.
Good video
Great! Thanks! But I guess if there is any sort of restart or power outage, one will have to re-enter the Wyze 2FA which is not going to work unless one is actually home and in a position to reset the bridge inside the Docker container.
It appears as though it only needs the 2fa when it’s upgraded , I cycled it on and off and it came back up without needing it.
I've been looking at using Wyze cams to replace some of the Panasonic Webcams I'm using for my home automation system, but the Wyze firmware updates over time have broken the integration. It may be worth buying another Synology NAS (a small one) just for the home automation branch of my network.
Have you looked into adding rtsp streams into HomeKit using docker and home bridge?
As always, great Lon video. I’ve not used Docker or Surveillance Station. All of my Synology NAS’s are running BTRFS. I heard once Surveillance Station required EXT4. Would this not work for me?
The unit we're running with in this video was running BTRFS so it should work!
I will definitely give this a try this week. You mention Synology provides two free camera licenses. How much are additional camera licenses?
They start at around $56 each and go down in price based on the volume purchased: lon.tv/7xow9
So it’s working awesome! And it works flawlessly with my outdoor cams. Except it seems to be draining the battery fast. I have them all hooked up to the solar panels and they never dip below 90%, but after about 5 hours all three are below 50.
I’m thinking it’s because I have them hooked up to blueiris and set to record continuously. Maybe I should just enable record on trigger…
Did you test how long outdoor cams last with this setup?
Yeah the outdoor camera really isn’t designed to be run continuously like that. It might be possible to offset with a solar panel / battery but likely cheaper and easier to run a v3 cam
I am using this Docker to View my cameras using Channels DVR and record the video.
Is anyone else having a problem with the Wyze Docker package since Synology's move to Container Manager? Can not find the Wyze package in the package center and Surveillance now requires me to authenticate and cameras added, which I can not do. Everything worked. as described in the video until this update by Synology.
I have updated DSM 7.2 which changed the look of docker. Could you update your video using the latest docker-wyze-bridge
UPDATE: I added my Wyze V3 to the docker and everything seemed to go smooth..but when trying to connect to it via the 5080 port I get an error message saying "Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there is an error in the application." Anyone having an idea what I've done wrong? To even get there I needed to open some ports on my router..
Great tutorial! One question, 4:30 in you mention that you might want to get one of your network legs from your synology to the same iot network...But how do i actually do that?
I am looking for a pan/tilt camera to use for experimentation. I want to programmatically (Python/C++) set the camera angle and programmatically snap a photo. Any recommendations?
Thank you ofr the video have wanted to use rstp since they removed the support. Question, does the rstp docker send audio out too?
See my comment above.
Great tutorial video, and it worked great until update to Synology dsm v7.2.1 Docker is not supported anymore and replaced with "container manager". Can you please create another video with the updated "container manager"? Thanks and keep up the great work.
If you are installing the container standalone it’ll work the same with container manager
I have old, old Synology equipment (DS411) and someone is sending me something 3 years newer (xxx14), so still ancient. The point being that Docker isn't listed in the Package Center. Is there a technical limitation that prevents Docker from running on decade+ old hardware? Can I tell if Docker will be available on a certain model before acquiring something newer? About to go searching for Docker as a manual install, just wondering if you happen to know already.
Would love to see an example of CAM v3 PAN setup RTSP for BlueIris
Actually got BU running with the new Cam V3 PAN. Had to add the API ID/Key to .yml file but it works nicely
I'm just beginning to understand the use and capabilities of my Synology NAS
2 things I found with this process-
1. On my Synology DS220+ running DSM 7.2-64570 Update 3, Docker is called Container Manager. Simpy a verbiage issue?
2. I've got my Wyze pan-cam working, but it only records events if I'm logged into the NAS with Monitor Center open. The rest of the time, it does not record the video to my NAS. The events are visible on my phone via the Wyze app.
How do you get the audio to work. It works on the Wyze app but I can't get it to work on Surveillance Station.
Ever since DSM updated and docker-wyze-bridge updated to 2.9.0, my cameras (v3) won't connect. I can still use the Wyze app, but not surveillance station. I can still see streams from the bridge and separate port. Do we need to setup the RTSP stream differently? Also why will my containers not update to the newest image when resetting them? I've downloaded the latest.
hls, theres a delay it do mp4 small files , i guess i see in other projects, wondering if the hack can make more smooth via hls, because its not working fine on my case with that protocol. other ones runs smooth.
Can I do this on my regular computer?
That! I'm using docker wyze in Home Assistant and CANNOT get that 2FA to pop up. I'm stumped! I just installed it yesterday (twice) and I am stuck.
I'm receiving "Local port 1935 conflicts with other ports used by other services" on my Synology 918+. Is there another port which can be used? Thanks!
Ditto
Do you think the DS224 would work also?
One question, does docker keep the recording video to its container like microsd installed on wyze does?
It just passes the video along no recording stored in docker
Will this same instructions work on QNAP NAS?
IS there a way to add this feed to home assistant?
I can’t get mine to work. I used it for a few weeks a last year or so and it had some lag issues. Now it’s not working at all. Keeps saying client disconnected in logs. It will work for a second or two then stop. Not sure if it is due to a firmware update or what. Very frustrating.
Finally got it to work but audio sync is a terrible issue
Looks like this changed with the June 2024 release. anyway that you can refresh?
Great video 🙂 I'm not able to get any sound from my recordings is anyone else having this issue or knows a possible fix?
me neither!!! why ?
See my comment above.
Docker is gone on DMS 7.2 ! Now how do iget my wyze cams on my NAS? Can I run docker on a raspberry pi then point to the Pi using the surveliance app?
It’s now called container manager . I did a video about it recently
The 2fa keeps expiring after 24hrs. How do I keep it going without having to keep logging in?
I am getting stuck at an error "Docker container mrlt8-wyze-bridgel stopped unexpectedly." and it keps restarting over and over again. There is a comment below that says to enable port 443, but I am not sure I am understanding this instruction as I can't figureo ut what it exactly means. Any advice on this?
on your firewall settings you allow port.
The Wyze cam is cheap, but the per camera synology surveillance station is expensive - like $60 per camera (beyond two free)
Should I be getting sound? I've set this up but don't have sound, is that a limitation or did I do something wrong. Please advise.
See my comment above.
If you lose internet, can you still record if the local network is still up?
Yes as the camera is connecting through the local network.
Can this RTSP stream be viewed with VLC on another PC on the network or is it confined to the Synology NAS?
Yes as demonstrated VLC was running on my Mac, not the nas
Would like to have it password protected.
Great video but I noticed audio is not recording
See my comment above.
I've added 5080 as local port and 5000 as container port but when I use my desktop computer and put in my NAS IP 192.168.x.:5000 it still redirects to :5001. Any ideas how to correct this? I'd really like to get it working. Thanks for the video.
I got the same problem here. Anyone can help? Thanks.
Have you tried 192.168.x.x:5080. Port 5000 is for inside the container. 5080 is for outside to talk to the container.
@@steves9250 Yes, I tried 5080 and it says the site cannot be reached. It did look like it connected once but no cameras were present, unlike at 13:17 where 5 cameras just show up. I was expecting 1 camera in my case. Also, now, in DSM I'm getting messages in the log such as
'Fetching 'auth' from the Wzye API...' and
'Could not find local cache for 'auth'' and
'could not find local cache for 'cameras'' and
" [API] ERROR: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='auth-prod.api.wyze.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /v3/user/login (Caused by NameResolutionError(": Failed to resolve 'auth-prod.api.wyze.com' ([Errno -3] Temporary failure in name resolution)"))"
Finally I'm getting emails saying, "Container mrlt8-wyze-bridge1 stopped unexpectedly. "
Any help is appreciated; I'm a rookie.
Will this still work if I have my synology setup as local only intranet?
No unfortunately.. The container will need to connect to the Wyze servers for authentication.
Can you do a tutorial on getting your books running on a Synology?
Audio books?
Unfortunately, you only get two licenses with Sinologist for free. This feels a lot like replacing one subscription with another. I wish Wyze would release the MaxDrive!
As mentioned this standardizes the Wyze camera so it’ll work with free options too. Also synology licenses are one time and not an ongoing subscription
local port 1935 conflicts with other ports used by other services ... any ideas?
possibly try something like 1930 to 1935 for example
Cannot get this to work, the web page loads but does not see any cameras and then I get a "lost connection to the bridge" error message and the container stops? Any suggestions? running the latest versions of everything.
Finally got it working, had to get the API and key and set that up even though I did not have 2FA set. Now all working, very cool, thanks.
@@dave4036 I'd like to know how you solved it.
@@YoungminKim-os1pn it was related to the wyze security features, I found a discussion on github about using the Wyze API key and I did that and it all started working properly. Only issue I have now it that the new Wyze floodlight pro does not work as it has a different interface apparently
Where do I get the two factor code from? I setup the docker and can see my cameras when I turn off 2 factor. But when I turn it back on I get the code wyze texts me and put it in the docker config but it won’t work.
You need to use it via an authenticator app not SMS.
@@LonSeidman thanks. I’ll give it a try
im running into problems. I get the docker container running and tested working with vlc. When I go to install the cam into SS it comes up with an authenticate error. I have tried leaving it blank and putting in my wyze user and pass. What am I missing?
Depends which model camera you have. The newer ones don't work.
@@LonSeidman Oh, sorry. Im running the floodlight V1 which has the wyze cam v3 on it. its running firmware 4.36.11.8391.
@@LonSeidman Got it to work. I removed the IP address and entered "localhost". do you see any problems with doing this? Thanks
You don't need cam plus for this right?
Correct!
How about using Windows 10?
So you still have to stream to wyze for this to work :(
Well, not the expert, but Lon said this continues working when the internet goes out, as long as your local net is up,
so, I'm going with: NO.
Docker can be a bit of a learning curve but I think it's worth learning. After learning the Docker basics I highly recommend this video on Docker networking. I have not seen a better explanation anywhere. I go back to this video for reference occasionally. I guess he's called Network Chuck for a reason.

What about passwords for rtsp
Anyone having issues with this tutorial??? I have followed all the setup steps and rewatched 4 times and have the docker container running but when I try to add to SS it never is able to find the camera... Any help would be appreciated.
You have to type in the camera address manually - it won't find them automatically.
@@LonSeidman I have pasted the address into the rstp box, deleted the rstp://. And SS tries to load forever and asks to authenticate, but there is no user name or password associated with the camera...
I've even checked all port forwarding and any other configs that I could think of. The docker container works great through lol
FYI after doing some searching and not finding any real answers, I saw "localhost" mentioned a lot. So I removed the IP address from the copied link and replaced it with localhost and it started working right away.
Surveillance Station is using port 1935 and this container will not run. Used by process ssrtmpserverd
I think all synology is 2 licensees all my rack mountable have been 2
They have some new ones that are geared towards nvr use that come with 4 I think
It is a shame that Synology only supports Docker on some of their models.
Hey Lon-- I have a miniPC running Windows 11 Pro and set up Home Assistant running on VMWare Player (more efficient that running in Hyper V). There's a method running "Docker Wyze Bridge" within Home Assistant/no longer need a separate Docker installation, reference czcams.com/video/YZVJ1yvdobE/video.html , CZcams channel The Smart House, from last year, in case link isn't supported in comments. It runs good/efficient, but I thought it might work as possibly an interesting project for you on a miniPC since you could have an all-in-one system and delete the synology aspect, since many of the miniPCs have extra NVME SSD slot or SATA slot. Always enjoy your channel and reviews. Coming to you from Starlink connection somewhere in Baja California.
Ugh I need help. Im not very familiar with this. But I saw someone's video the other day about this camera and I decided to buy one. Only issue I misunderstood and thought that It had an ethernet port and that I would be able to hookup to my NVR. So basically, since I'm not able to do that. I was wondering if there is a way I can get RTSP on it so I can send video to my NVR? I see videos about setting up RTSP on the v2 and the other v3 cam. But haven't found anything for this cam.
