HomeKit Secure Video Support for Any Camera - NEW METHOD (2023)

[@iGageit]

Thanks for making this video! You saved me from having to return yet another camera that I was trying to get into HomeKit. Keep up the great work

Loved the updated guide, I also used your original guide some time ago, thanks!. Question: When I don't see the "Custom Motion Sensor" within the Extensions in the group. Any idea on what's missing?

[@mavirek]

Would you produce a comparison: ecoflow river 3 vs bluetti eb3a? I use 3 Bluettis around my home for UPS security, running my WiFi, one security camera, and one old iMac (that we use to watch movies); in the event of a power failure, we have entertainment and security. I’m sure EcoFlow is a fine alternative with its cheaper price, and of course Bluetti has more plug-ins; but which really is the better enhanced UPS-longer life, quieter fan, cooler, etc.? Thank you for thinking about it. 😊

So why don’t I get notifications anymore from HomeKit and HomeKit secure video is not there

[@maxw1nter]

excellent video! any idea why no "motion sensor" shows up when adding the camera to the device group? My camera has motion detection and it is activated in the camera settings.

[@AdamEisan]

Wondering the same.

So this is a very nice tutorial, I think I’ve got it working. The one thing that is confusing is the device groups when selecting the interfaces are you selecting the device group or are you selecting the camera?

[@jig1056]

Does anyone know that's the difference between using adding the camera to HomeKit vs adding the camera group? Why would you use one vs the other

[@MrWarwickJones]

Why do you need to set up motion detection within Scrypted? Doesn't HomeKit handle motion detection natively and internally?

[@herbnhero]

If using HKSV with a camera that doesn't natively support do you still get the full privacy protection that HKSV ensures??

[@helho]

Thanks, but any solution for Cameras with H.265?

[@blackopsking93]

Great videos, I used your guide to setup Scrypted, Docker, and a Reolink camera for HKSV. The only issue I’m having with HKSV is that video in the motion notification doesn’t play and is showing the image from a few seconds before. Any idea why?

[@ehsanwaheed3670]

Do you have any issues with artefacts when motion is detected? Got a Swann system as well.

I’m not looking to pay yearly for Video services endlessly. Other options?

[@xefour]

Yes, love the app, however at 16 cameras and more to come, im not prepared to pay $160+ / year for it. Any other suggestions?

[@dougfox5312]

Which IP cameras do you use?

[@Prokastrynator]

This cool but I would I have to decrease resolution of my existing cameras, and increased traffic on network , its not worth it

[@Paw_Low]

Thats thanks to HSV, apple wants it that way
