Cool video. Hate the chapters though. PITA on Android to scroll n seek. Oh well. Question... Should the onvif main stream HA entity show the actual video stream. Mine doesn't. My Ankke url seems to work though. In VLC and elsewhere in HA via MotionEye. Thanks.

The ones that did show up in the red dot/scroll bar at the bottom of the screen when my device was in landscape mode. Touching the scroll bar/dot made the app jump into portrait mode and popped up the video info/chapters text area. I couldn't stop it. Drove me nuts. Didn't happen today. Maybe it was a temporary KZbin glitch.

Very informative video, thanks! I have the Annke setup with cameras "behind" the NVR - different subnet. I managed to get the RTSP stream working, but I am struggling with ONVIF. Is there any way to get them to work in my NVR setup?
@KPeyanski3 жыл бұрын
As far as I remember it is not possible to access the camera stream using ONVIF if the cameras are behind ANNKE NVR. You can only add ONVIF cameras to the ANNKE NVR but you cannot use ONVIF to access them after that. BTW Glad you like the video ;)

If you want the main stream, just change to 101. Next camera would be 201 and 202 respectively. Note that new version of HA will convert this configuration.yaml setup to a UI-based setup for generic camera. Hope I was able to help.

Have you tried the Reolink integration in Home Assistant? It seems to eliminate the need for all the manual camera setup. I haven't seen on for Annke yet though..... I may have missed it. I find using the camera feed from that saved mucking around in YAML. Some cameras don't send proper ONVIF motion events. My Reolink's don't send ONVIF motion events either. That may be why Home Assistant did not detect them. Either that or motion detection in the camera is not setup right.
@KPeyanski3 жыл бұрын
Yes, and I also have a video about it. And exactly as you said ONVIF sensors are not detected in Reolink cam neither. Still don’t know what is the real reason...

@@KPeyanski I got the motion detection working on my Hikvision camera (ANNKE are rebadged Hikvision cameras). You need to enable motion detection in the configuration settings of the camera.
