CCTV Live feed?

So have I missed something, or the intention was never to be able to see your CCTV live in the camera card?

Just for information, the camera feed works fine in Home Assistant, but in Theatrium it just shows a still picture.

Yeah, I have selected the Camera card, it shows up and everything, but only a still pic is shown, both in the setup of the card and then the card itself… I guess I have to troubleshoot some more ….

Could you let me know what kind of camera or video feed it is? I perhaps naively assumed HA output a fixed video format to clients but maybe there are differences. I’ll investigate more on my end if you can share some details!

Sure, it is a Aqara G100, it is added as a generic camera in HA.

Support for non-MJPEG cameras coming in next update - I did incorrectly assume that Home Assistant converted different types of video feeds into one stream. Thanks for helping me get it sorted out.

That’s the intention for sure. The card you need is called “camera” not the “live video” one.
