| homebridge-camera-ffmpeg-ufv | Partly works | Static images but no live video in oznu Docker imageSaved copyGot it. I’ll admit to having a similar problem with my 1618+, onzu’s homebridge image, and homebridge-camera-ffmpeg-ufv. Static images but no live video. I thought maybe I just don’t have the processing power to transcode, but then I remembered I was getting live video at one point. Curious to know if you added and removed your cameras or otherwise had to add them a second time to the Home app? I did, and my second theory is that Homebridge has cached something from the first time I added the camera that is now making live video via the Home app not work.

Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.
In ReReHome
Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
