5 Minutes Home Assistant RTSP Cameras Feed Installation
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 08. 2024
- In this comprehensive tutorial, we guide you through the process of installing RTSP stream feeds from cameras into Home Assistant. We'll be using a Sonoff CamSlim as our example, but the principles can be applied to many other devices.
The video is divided into three main sections:
1. *Setting up the RTSP feed:* We start by setting up the RTSP feed from the Sonoff CamSlim using the eWeLink application. We'll show you how to navigate the settings, enable the RTSP switch, and retrieve the RTSP URL.
2. *Installing and configuring the generic camera integration:* Next, we move on to Home Assistant, where we install and configure the generic camera integration. We'll guide you through adding a new integration, entering the RTSP URL, and finalizing the setup.
3. *Displaying the camera feed:* Finally, we demonstrate how to display the camera feed on your Home Assistant dashboard. We'll use a Picture Glance card on a sectional view dashboard to give you a real-time view of your camera feed.
Whether you're a seasoned smart home enthusiast or a beginner looking to dip your toes into home automation, this video will provide you with the knowledge and skills to integrate your camera feeds into Home Assistant. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more smart home tutorials!

** UPDATE Transport Modes **
CamSlim utilizes RTSP (Real-Time Streaming Protocol) over both TCP and UDP for its transport protocol. This flexibility allows it to adapt to various network conditions and ensure reliable streaming performance. Additionally, it supports UDP Multicast for efficient network resource usage in scenarios where multiple clients are accessing the stream simultaneously.

Looking forward to part 2 because I've not had much success with that part yet, olus want to get audio working from cameras into HA
Hey Sparky, what was the problem? did you get your RTSP feed displayed ? Part two takes you through how to reduce the latency, but you need to have the RTSP feed working.
What's your camera you are trying to display in HA ?
@@smart_home_australia I have the feeds working fine but it was getting the WebRTC stuff working to reduce lag that I didn't have success with. I should also apparently be able to get audio using that.
I have Hikvision cameras linked to HA via the ONVIF Integration
In which case you are in exactly the right place :) Enjoy !
I would like to install a camera with battery and HA compatible, seems that it is not possible ???
Sure is... you have two options. Arlo (czcams.com/video/Z3kk5N7VaCM/video.html) or Reolink (czcams.com/video/-4rXg-69qWw/video.html). I was an Arlo user but recently moved over to Reolink (better hardware and more flexibility) and obviously the camera ecosystem I would recommend.
@@smart_home_australia thanks can you give me thé reolink Model with battery ? are you sûre compatibility with Ha ? Ans which entitities available

Comprehensive Review of the Reolink Home Hub: Unboxing, Setup, and Integration with Home Assistant
czcams.com/video/-4rXg-69qWw/video.html
Basically Reolink are moving their whole range to work with the reolink home hub. That allows the cameras to have RTSP and as such full compatibility with HA. It works really well and gives you an NVR as well. I’m super happy with the move to reolink.
Hello Sir, can you help me with how to integrate MIPC cameras into home assistant.. I will really appreciate your help.
I don't have any MIPC cameras, sorry) but doing a little investigation, Yes, MIPC cameras can be integrated into Home Assistant. There is a custom component available on GitHub that allows you to view cameras connected to a MIPC account in Home Assistant. Here are the steps:
1) Go to the Home Assistant UI and navigate to Configuration.
2) Click on Integrations.
3) Click on + Add Integration.
4) Search for mipc.
5) Complete the form with your MIPC account information.
The integration will then connect to your account and import all cameras under the identifier camera.mipc_camera_{{id}} where {{id}} is the camera’s internal identifier.
Remember that this integration can only load video streams from cameras added to the MIPC account. Always make sure to check the compatibility of your specific camera model with Home Assistant.
Also, keep in mind that the integration is not maintained, so there might be some limitations or issues. Happy automating! 😊
@@smart_home_australia thanks for the info. I tried adding the integration but giving me error : config flow could not be loaded:{“message”:”invalid handler specified”}
In which case, sorry, but without an MIPC camera I'm not sure what the solution would be. I'll see if I can get one in for testing and if I can I'll put up a video.
What brand and model is your camera?
@@smart_home_australia Morecam Security Cameras Outdoor, 360° View PTZ 2.4G WiFi Cameras for Home Security with Mobile App, Surveillance Camera Outside with Night Vision IP66 Compatible with Alexa Motion Detector (model 844 )
I'll reach out and see if I can get one in for review and HA integrations. :)
