To start the live stream again, repeat your voice command. At the top left, tap Add Set up device Works with Google. I have tried unsuccessfully for months to get this to work, using all sorts of different ways.

I have a Ring door bell at the front door and a Foscam camera up at roof level facing the same direction. Prefer to stream the foscam to Google display to preserve Ring battery but want to use Ring motion event to trigger stream from foscam to Google display. Trying to stream front yard camera to Google Smart Display on motion detection. At the top of the screen, verify you're using the home where you added your Chromecast and speaker or display. To switch between homes, tap the triangle next to the home name.

If you have another compatible camera, follow the steps provided by the device maker. However, the connection is constantly lost for weeks/months at a time and app can't connect. I am told by foscam that the only way to get it back is to be at the location, in that Wi-Fi to do some long-winded technical process that I've never heard of before. They don't know what they are talking about, as every few weeks, app starts working again without me having done a thing or been on location. With Foscam Cloud, you can access alert recordings through an intelligent and intuitive timeline. There’s no need for a standalone app – it’s all accessible through Foscam App and myfoscam.com.

In the second iteration of Foscam App, we bring you an all-new design, featuring a convenient side-menu, intuitive cloud timeline, stable software architecture and more. From the app, you can add your camera in minutes, then view what matters most from anywhere, anytime.
Important Message from Foscam Digital Technologies Regarding US Sales & Service
Bit laggy at times, but actually getting a stream is 1,000 times better than what I did have, which was just a black screen. Foscam platform and ffmpeg seems to provide the same results. I didn’t check the resources consumption of each scenario.
Care to share any more details on have you have it set up? Foscam platform doesn’t provide any control over PTZ or any other fancy functions and relays on CGI Commands to get control over them. That makes me think that there aren’t much advantages on choosing foscam platform over ffmpeg.

I picked up a google home hub on the weekend and figured I’d get straight into using it with HA. We have a foscam camera in the toddlers room which i figured would be a good test for us. Related to AppDaemon as far as I know a proxy is mandatory in order to show an RTSP source feed in a web page. Unless there are other features provided by the foscam platform that you need (I’m not familiar with that platform). However the rtsp settings are set in configuration.yaml for the condor but foscam has its own platform support in HA.
Follow the instruction on screen to complete the set up.
The app on my android phone is just called ‘Foscam’. It’s the one I used to add the cameras to my wifi. I’ve added the cameras to the Foscam app, and only my C2 seems to have the sharing option, I have 3 C1s, but none of them do. If your Foscam camera supports PTZ presets, you will be able to move the camera to a predefined preset using the preset name. Live video from wired Nest cameras and doorbells stops after 12 hours. Choose your camera manufacturer from the list to finish setup.
And yes, you can use both platforms at the same time. Contact the developer by sending an e-mail. You can leave a review once you're using this app. Click on a device above to show related Flow cards only.
Only a rtsp link is available, which you cant view in a browser without an addon. If you’ve confirmed RTSP working on the Foscam you can just configure it to use the ffmpeg platform in HA. Dont worry about hijacking a thread that is 2 months old, when its about a problem. I am trying a very nice AppDaemon based dashboard made by @ReneTode to control my Foscam FI9826P. Only official Foscam Cloud accounts are supported – we do not support third party accounts such as those developed by Foscam US. Hey, I have a foscam that I often use for monitoring the baby.

If you have a Nest camera or doorbell, follow the instructions provided in the box and app. Safety starts with understanding how developers collect and share your data. Data privacy and security practices may vary based on your use, region, and age. The developer provided this information and may update it over time. Most Foscam IP Cameras supports two video streams, by default the Main stream is the high quality stream while the Sub stream is a lower quality stream. These streams can be configured in your camera preferences.
The foscam platform allows you to watch the live stream of your Foscam IP camera in Home Assistant. Is any way to avoid using a camera_proxy_stream and show the feed from the camera directly in the dashboard? Camera_proxy_stream does post-processing that seems to consume huge amounts of CPU resources and I don’t need it. Camera_proxy_stream works fine if I configure the camera as ffmpeg instead of foscam. I am talking about camera_proxy_stream but I do think the issue has the same origin.
