My problem is that this protocol is only for video. These camera's are used for motion detection, and I know of no way of receiving that signal unless you mimick it by setting up your own software monitoring the stream 24/7. I think we can agree that this is a huge complication compared to installing 'the app'.
For the two way voice chat, alarm and in some cases flood light and pan/zoom controls there is no substitute at all.
- monsecchris 4y agoOnvif motion detection events can be received over pullpoint or rtsp metadata.
- brnt 4y agoHmm, last i checked whatever Home Assistant comes with (and integration for some other tool) did not support that. Also, all the TPlink devices I have have their IP feeds capped at an hour, and there was no good way to reinit the stream. Maybe that's changed?
