Camera FFmpeg Verifiedhomebridge-camera-ffmpeg | Works | RTSP firmware with ffmpeg plugin works; smooth video harderSaved copyIf looking for something cheap then Wyze is the best option I think. Also there’s plenty more expensive cameras with rtsp support from companies such as Hikvision, Dahua, Ubiquti, D-Link, Foscam and others.
