Taking a look at the best way you would be able to use the ESP32 cam as an ip camera and if this is something you should do.
This is not specifically a step by step tutorial and more of my opinion if you should use it in this way.

Thanks for a well made video that saved me hours of tinkering and digging about on the internet.

@neilausten9404 4 года назад

Forget previous comment, I now understand what you are doing. Cheers

@AverageAutomation 4 года назад

Have you been able to get it running fine?

@neilausten9404 4 года назад

@@AverageAutomation I'm awaiting a new ESP32 Cam in the mail. However now I can follow what you are doing I don't see a problem. Hope Covid lockdown not too bad in SA. Things are easing up here in Australia.

@AverageAutomation 4 года назад

Hey yes the lockdown has been getting a bit better moved to level 3 however lets hope this time they are allowing international shipping but I think I may be stuck on not getting any stuff till next year. and local supply is ridiculous when it comes to pricing and availability. at least i Can work from home my other half lost her job but we are still going. Hope all is good that side as well.

@@AverageAutomation In answer to your question , I gave up in the end with the ESP32Cam. My experience is that they are hard to flash, and too unreliable in connecting to wifi.I had motioneyeos running on a separate RPi with an 8Mp camera. So I migrated that into HA and it works really well. Also, I use nabu casa for remote access to HA, and it will allow you to watch motioneyeos videos remotely, via HA. Thanks for your videos, very helpful for someone at my level.

@gbadishomeassistant748 9 месяцев назад

yes but how you setted esp32cam with motioneye would be a perfect video because you show only your ready work. Thanks

@DanStone1025 3 года назад

Quiestion: I'm new to this and so wondering, are you running MotionEye on a seperate Pi? Or can you run both MotionEye and Home Assistant on the same Pi?

@RobAtBentley 4 года назад

Thanks for a great set of videos on HomeAssistant, especially this camera setup. I have a TTGO T-Journal and used the same setup as you and successfully displayed a streamed image in both HA Overview and MotionEye. I've additionally configured the MotionEye File Storage options and configured with Network Share (to my Windsows 10 desktop) and Custom Path to a local RPi4 folder. However, in both cases, the viewed .MP4 video files appear to have a green filter only but the image is otherwise good. Any ideas what's causing this? I suspect CODECs somewhere but also configuration somewhere in HA and/or MotionEye as the streamed image is good quality colour.

@AverageAutomation 4 года назад

Is this only when you view the recorded file or is this when you are live viewing the cam as well .

@damacucu2823 3 года назад

HI tried both ways you described. The ESPHOME way and the random nerd way. Every time I try to add a network camera to motioneye I'll get the message request timed out. Any Idea on this one? THX

@thanasisglt 4 года назад

Very nice videos, thank you! You mention that you run motion eye on a different server; what server device do you use? I am looking into a solution with ip cams but I don't think that rb3b+ already running HA could handle those.. Maybe a dedicated NVR that could communicate with home assistant.. What's your opinion about, any ideas?

@AverageAutomation 4 года назад

Hey i havr a unraid server that I have it running on as for a dedicated nvr that may be a bit hard to fin when it comes to adding it to HA as of this moment i do not have any recommendations for this.

i know Im pretty randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to watch newly released tv shows online?

@lodvries 3 года назад

Thank you for the tutorial. I have uploaded the code from Random Nerds Tutorial to the ESP32-CAM. I have an IP address. I can look at the video in the browser. I installed MotionEye in Home Assistant. My Camera settings are: Camera Type: Network Camera. Url: the url from the Camera (as it works in the browser). Everything is in the same network. I get either the message: not a supported network camera or the message: an empty reply from server behind camera. I have closed all other tabs in the browser, so only the Home Assistant is running. What do I do wrong? Can you please give me a hint. Thank you.

@neilausten9404 4 года назад

I know you said that installing motioneye os on HA is quite simple, but as a bit of a novice I have an understanding gap in doing this. My motioneye is on a separate RPi. My questions are: do I have to nominate a camera type on the HA motioneye settings page, if so, which camera do I select. Also do I have to alter the config.yaml file to include motioneye os details. I am at the stage of installing the add on and opening the UI. All the settings details are there but the camera display won't show (although it does show a frames per sec recording). Outside of HA motioneye working just fine. Thanks again for your presentation.

@AverageAutomation 4 года назад

Have you been able to get motioneye running? To add the esp 32 you need to use the code from the random tutorials in the discription then in motioneye all you would do is add a new camera using just the ip adress of the esp32 no additional information is needed

@obeyzyj3726 4 года назад

I receive my esp32cam two days ago. I starded play with it with ESP Home. It works but quantity is not so good. Thanks for info about motion eye I must try it. Is that possibe to record video on sd card using ESP Home soft?

@AverageAutomation 4 года назад

I have not tried this before think the sd card ones i have seen only used them to saving pictures you may need to look at different code for this

@shaunwhiteley3544 4 года назад

At 9.50 is it possible to have a live, real-time image on the homepage without clicking on the entity? The snapshot image does not update quickly enough for me, it’s about 10 to 15 seconds so I end up just leaving motioneye open all the time so I can see the real-time streams. If someone is knocking at the door. I want to see it now, not wait for the snapshot to update. Cheers

@AverageAutomation 4 года назад

The only workaround I would have for this is to add a "Iframe" card in the HA interface and then using the "embed Url" link from motioneye this should show a live preview.

@shaunwhiteley3544 4 года назад

Average Automation Thank you! That worked a treat 😀. I have now turned off Zoneminder and am just using motioneye 😀. CPU dropped from 90% to 40% my electricity bill says thank you 😂
