This has to be done first before any devices will be auto discovered in homeassistant. Set the "override inform host" option to your lan IP, and enable upnp on the vlan has resides. After that they will populate. Also, on the vlan has resides, leave all settings default/auto if you can, mainly dns.
Thanks for the video. Is there a reason my camera configuration controls are grayed out in HA? I can add the camera live stream to the dashboard. But in HA, going to Settings>Devices>UniFicamera, the Controls and Sensors appear, but the Configuation controls are all grayed out for each camera.
@@SmartHomeMakers I have the G4 Doorbell Pro. I have set it up as described in the video, thank you! I would like to do more with the camera in Home Assistant as the Unfi protect app on the iphone give my wife a lot of trouble. I would love to see a video on how to get two way communication working on home assistant on the companion phone app. Please consider doing such a video! Thanks again.🙂
@@hacwa about 20 seconds. It appears to be a known issue.. From what I understand the recommendation is to use webRTC, but I can’t get that to work. Any thoughts?

Great vid thx. - Is there a way to get camera detections to trigger a relay ? Or Hue ?
Sure! You can use triggers and actions for that
Thanks! Which trigger would I be looking for ? TIA
Hi, great video, I have a G4 doorbell, is there any way I can talk through the Home assistant companion app back through to the doorbell itself?
Looking forward to getting a g4 myself to test!

Hi. How do you get rid of the delay in the live stream?
How long of a delay is there?

Did you add ffmeg in the configuration.yaml files ?
Is there a way to add a sound sensor to the camera? In order to receive notifications if the camera detects sound?
???
Not sure Jorge!
my protect is not discovered
Is it on the same VLAN?
