Happy Saturday everyone! Something a bit different today! I've not done a tutorial in a long time, and I thought I'll do something easy. Turns out Android TV has changed a lot in the last year or two and Nest have totally bollocksed up their Android TV app so this was an utter nightmare to achieve 🤣 Easy to replicate though now I've gone through that pain so I hope this one helps you all out! There's no sponsorship on this one so if you fancy buying me a beer as a thank you then the details are below, as usual no pressure at all to do so...

Morning Paul, I have NVIDIA shield, and if I ask google assistant to stream front yard camera to Nvida shield, it just does? Do you need this program if you want it to interrupt t.v??? I have nest thermostat, but only use Voger Cams...When I tell home assistant.... ...home assistant.....
Well this is brilliant Paul! The only thing that could make it better is if there was some company that made the software for all these devices that could implement a simple button for this. 🤣
Hi Paul - Hope you enjoyed the beer I sent your way last week. I had to figure out what the average UK beer price was which was rather fun stuff. This video ... It was excellent. I no longer watch TV but this is EXACTLY the kinda thing my late husband wanted to figure out how to do 5yrs ago. He got something working but it still required he grab his Android tablet. I learn so much from watching your videos and having done written tutorials I can really appreciate what a pain doing a video version would be. You nailed it. Cheers from Australia!
Thank you so much. You'll likely get a thank you from me by email eventually. Things have been hectic this past month! Hope I did your husband proud ❤️
I worked on CT, MRI scanners for 30+ yrs and this procedure is more involved that operating one of those... It proves Paul Hibbert is a smart cookie besides being a funny guy!
Attaching the doorbell to the mount is a little difficult but once it locks into place it seems extremely sturdy. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxxHZwMa8CsRjYhf9s4W8w0Dwm47uytWOp I replaced my regular doorbell with this and hard wired it in, using my existing wires and mechanical chime. It works perfect so far and integrates perfectly with my blink camera system. It also works seamlessly with Alexa
Although I love smart home automation I have no clue where to start with all this magic electricary. However, you Paul make this shit great. I watch your videos and laugh even if I’ve not a clue what you are talking about. Keep up the good work, I appreciate you mate 🏆👍🏼
Thank you Paul. That was brilliant. I'm just super disappointed that in 21st century people have to go through all this procedure instead of just click on the phone "show the doorbell camera on my TV, when motion". ;( ;( ;( It's so sad how the smart home industry is so dumb. :/
I hate to say it. But doorbells with HomeKit support from Apple, Netatmo for example. It's just works seamlessly with Apple TV, so a live view in a small windows on your Apple TV without any rocketscience settings in this video..
I've got a reliable Aeon motion sensor at my front door that never false triggers. I just set an Alexa routine which basically goes 'if sensor triggers, then tell alexa to show me the front door camera'. The feed then pops up on my lounge echo show.
Don't have a camera doorbell, just watching for entertainment value (and a little for Tasker curiosity). Question though: are the automated button press coordinates always the same? I guess potentially for this app they are, but what if someone wanted something similar to your tutorial, but launch a different app with different button placement? How would they find the right coordinates?
If I'm not mistaken, the coordinates are counted from top left to bottom right. If you have a lower or higher resolution it could be these coordinates are not for you. You could however check the developer options of that android device to see if there is an option that shows the coordinates. Guess these coordinates are pixel based so you could also do a raw calculation. It's quite a big area where you can click in.
@@TheoWillemse With a little luck there might be an app that can give you the coordinates. I was hoping Paul might add how he got them to his post, as people will likely look there first and it seems like a bit of an oversight for the tutorial not to mention how he obtained them. And agreed, top left to bottom right seems sensible, different resolution would most likely change it for other devices. I also remember a well hidden setting in Android for how much screen elements should be enlarged, which I once used to make everything on my phone a bit smaller. Unfortunately I don't remember the specific setting, but it needed a terminal command so it probably isn't commonly used. In any case, it seems likely that the coordinates can vary.
Trial and error is the only way I've found to do it, just punch some numbers in and then press play in tasker and see where the mouse ends up clicking, repeat the process until the mouse is clicking in the right place 😊
Eufy will work on the Firestick by adding the Eufy skill to Alexa and creating a routine so that when the doorbell is pressed, Eufy than streams to the Firestick on your TV
Paul, this video showed up on my feed and not noticing it was 3 years old, I started watching it. I don’t have any of the equipment you used, but I watched the entire video. This is one of the best and most clear instructional setup videos I have ever seen. You missed your calling as a corporate trainer. Well done. I am curious though, certainly you didn’t learn all these disparate programs to link together by trial and error and inspiration, so my question to you is where did you get the procedures from that you based this video on? If it’s been too long to remember or you are too busy to answer anyway, well done. I don’t know how well this video aged, most technical software videos don’t age well past the first software update, but since the utube algorithm is recommending this video, you might want to check and see if the steps are all still correct.
I believe it all still works! The irony is that I did train people in corporate settings for years but the pay was terrible! Thanks for the kind words dude. I did actually learn all this stuff by trying to find ways around the ridiculous mess of the home automation world for years before things started to get a bit more straight forward.
I've just done this with my ezviz cctv camera is there an easier way to find out your field point ? Also just to note when I opened the APK tasker after installing it told me it wouldn't work unless purchased from Google play store so don't know if things have changed since thus video was made 🙂 Ps is there anyway to ask tasker to change your HDMI channel so if your not watching anything on say your shield but on something else .. it Will change to your shield and load the camera app ?
Nice one hibbsy, I like this, so here, have some engagement (of course, I have done this a different way _humps air and yells home assistant_ - but super cool to see content like this again ❤️🔥)
Thank you for making this it’s very cool ! I know these type of video take more work than normal but it’s very much appreciate. Honestly watch it because your brand of humor 😂
Totally brilliant--that you figured it out AND made the tutorial swift and definitely not boring. Will I tackle this? Don't know. But watching it was fun.
Yes. here I am nearly 2 years later looking at this tutorial. Thats because I have finally purchased a Video doorbell, The Aqara G4. Any chance you could do something like this with Home assistant, as a tutorial? Also Tasker is a paid for product and i dont think you mentioned that in this video. Obviously, they may have started to charge for it, but is there anything free we could use instead. Thanks
Great video as always fella. I've no idea how you work all of this out 🤣 you must be a super intelligent being from another planet, sent to earth to show off to us mere humans 😂. I don't have a video doorbell but I do have several Reolink cameras that I can view on my Philips smart TV 👍
@@paulhibbert how you finding the image on your Philips TV? We have the philips 58pus8545 12, it seems to struggle with black images making it quite "blocky" :-/
No obvious blockiness, but I find it a bit high contrast. When watching my own videos I am always shocked at how dark my skin tone looks, but I don't notice this when watching anything else. 🤔
This is a great tutorial. I have smartthings multipurpose sensors that go off when I have a knock at the door and it tells all my echos that someone is knocking at the door. With this I should be able to load up my regular cameras that work with smart home etc, sweet. Now when my robovac bumps the front door, not only will the army of echos shout at me but my TV with show me nobody outside 🤣 I do turn the notification off when she's hoovering
Great tutorial video, and shame about Amazon Fire TV sticks not working for this. One minor thing you missed is that you need to set the Nest app to only notify you when someone presses the door bell. Mine is set to notify me when the door bell is pressed or when it sees a person, in which case my TV is going to be flicking to the Nest app way more times than I need it to. I guess some people will learn this the hard way tho! 🙂
hi paul , i am trying to get the same process via ring door bell (rapid ring app) with NVidia shield , but i can not get the exact coordinates for the click via autoinput . is there an easy way to know the exact coordinates for my scenario ?
Was gutted when you said it needs Android tv as my LG and Samsung aren't, but I still watched it all, thanks for the videos, always informative and amusing
@@paulhibbert I did wonder how many people watching still get the deanna troi reference, and how you happened to have that clip to hand for the editing lol
Great video. Silly question though. Why would you choose to use push bullet to push the Nest notification from your phone if you have the Nest app installed on the Shield...?
Yes, agree. You would think that the Nest App on the TV /Nvidia would get the same notification when the doorbell is depressed, to then show the door camera.
Hi good video. In July 2024 you can more simply from Android install the alexa app and attach it to the google nest app and have it shown on your Fire tv when somebody rings or even instruct it to show the camera.
Hi Paul, I know you did this video a while back but I had a number of questions. As a newbie I'm trying to automate some things for my parents home and the idea of being able to have the video doorbell automatically display on the TV for them would be fantastic I understand the basic concepts of what you were putting together - now to my questions. Since a bit of time has passed are any of the steps/tools need to be updated to do this? The TV my parents have is a new Samsung - 55” Class S95B OLED 4K Smart Tizen TV so I assume it has the capability to install the apps you talked about in it's OS. They have a eufy video doorbell. They also don't have an android phone, but they do have an IPAD that can run the eufy app and receive doorbell notifications. Does the tasker app work on an ipad or does it need to be an android phone? I'd love any advice you can give on how to get this automated process started. I'd be happy to buy you a few beers so we can chat - let me know your thoughts. Love all your videos and I hope you have a great new year and look forward to hearing from you soon. Thnx Bob Kresz
thx a lot!!!! two questions. 1. field id needs to be changed for me. my nest hello is located 1 page below because of another cameras. can you advise me which x y field is good for me. 2. at the notification, i can’t see the push menu. what am i missing?
Is there a way to distinguish between different types of notifications within Tasker? Like, for example, getting a notification from a Nest thermostat vs the doorbell camera.
Replace nest app with Eufy and select the Eufy app throughout the tutorial instead of nest 😊 the only other thing you might have to change is where the mouse clicks on the screen when configuring autoinput.
You wouldn't happen to know how to click the dialogs on the installed app when I bring it up in Firetv? I installed Amcrest Pro View, and got it to launch, however, it brings up a dialog I need to click OK on but I can't reach it using the FireTv control. I also connected a mouse to my TV (LG, which is webOS), however, it only seems to control the TV dialogs. Thanks in advance.
Could I use Tasker on my android phone and set something up to make my Nest doorbell cam show on on the phone without having to open the Google Home app?
Is this why I can get nest camera to show up a feed on my new Samsung TV? It has the feature to show camera though smartthings but never shows the feed just a circle and never loads.
I know there is a way to grab the actual stream file by making a Google developers account and tapping into it that way, it would be a quicker startup but probably more complicated. Or the Google assistant has a voice command to open the camera directly that could also be implemented into tasker instead. I think that can only be done with the new Chromecast though.
@@Far_Ken from what I remember it is a standard rtmp stream but the encryption key rotates. Probably better off trying to work the google assistant command into tasker to open it so everything is happy.
Hello does this feature still work on Nvidia shield. Because after I signed into my Google account and gave permissions, then in nest app clicked not now my doorbell camera still never showed up on screen just the nest app with my thermostat. I uninstalled nest app and tried that same step again still no doorbell camera on TV
Thanks for figuring all of that out for me! I'd've given it a few hours, then resigned it to the "I'll figure it out later" pile. It's a big pile, mostly Home Assistant related.
So I’ve figured this home assistant part . It goes ; Create- event - ui Action - launch app- google assistant- say - show “camera nam” The part I’d love to figure out is how to get all this to run smoothly in the background.
Just a thought. I don't have nest and haven't used Tasker in a while. If the nest app is on the shield, would you get notifications on the shield and eliminate the phone steps. Would this not work or do notifications not come through on TV or are we just keeping notifications off so that it doesn't interrupt movies etc. Also, can you have it look for a specific word within a notification or someway to only open app with specific camera?
This is how I planned to do it before I realised android TV had done away with notifications in favour of toast pop ups. This ruined my day big time 😂 The answer to your second question is yes. You can put specific notes in your push bullet and have tasker react differently to different notifications. 😊
Easy, peasy lemon sq...... 😲 My brain is fried 😵😭 Think ill save my sanity and peep through the curtains instead 😅 A great tutorial for someone I'm sure👍

IKEA button

@@paulhibbert No there is not, but Google should make this happen.

Re eufy: You can also tell alexa to show the "front door" or what ever you call the video door bell.👍

Is there a way to distinguish between different types of notifications within Tasker? Like, for example, getting a notification from a Nest thermostat vs the doorbell camera.
How do you find the X y coordinates for the mouse
Awesome.. good to see a tutorial again Paul 👍
Hi, have you tried it with LG webOS?
Great video! Is there a way to set this up to view on a tablet? I have been trying to get it and only got as far as opening app.
Great video but how do you do this without using nest app? Like say Eufy doorbell?
Replace nest app with Eufy and select the Eufy app throughout the tutorial instead of nest 😊 the only other thing you might have to change is where the mouse clicks on the screen when configuring autoinput.
You wouldn't happen to know how to click the dialogs on the installed app when I bring it up in Firetv? I installed Amcrest Pro View, and got it to launch, however, it brings up a dialog I need to click OK on but I can't reach it using the FireTv control. I also connected a mouse to my TV (LG, which is webOS), however, it only seems to control the TV dialogs. Thanks in advance.
Try a keyboard and see if you can press enter, or tab to it and then press enter. 😊
All this tech is brilliant, but I just can’t be arsed any more 😂
Hello is this Vivint doorbell work with fire tv?
You mention nest before I go any further will this work with Kami/Yi doorbell and cameras ?
Could I use Tasker on my android phone and set something up to make my Nest doorbell cam show on on the phone without having to open the Google Home app?
Is this why I can get nest camera to show up a feed on my new Samsung TV? It has the feature to show camera though smartthings but never shows the feed just a circle and never loads.
Can I use the Google Home app vs Nest?
Amy chance this would work for a Eufy camera?
Not tried it, but don't see why not.
I know there is a way to grab the actual stream file by making a Google developers account and tapping into it that way, it would be a quicker startup but probably more complicated. Or the Google assistant has a voice command to open the camera directly that could also be implemented into tasker instead. I think that can only be done with the new Chromecast though.
Depending on the stream type, wonder if that could be pushed directly to VLC media player, which is readily available on Android TV.
@@Far_Ken from what I remember it is a standard rtmp stream but the encryption key rotates. Probably better off trying to work the google assistant command into tasker to open it so everything is happy.
Hello does this feature still work on Nvidia shield. Because after I signed into my Google account and gave permissions, then in nest app clicked not now my doorbell camera still never showed up on screen just the nest app with my thermostat. I uninstalled nest app and tried that same step again still no doorbell camera on TV
Hello mate. Can I get this to work on a non Android TV? Pleeeeeeeease say yes..........
Thanks for figuring all of that out for me! I'd've given it a few hours, then resigned it to the "I'll figure it out later" pile. It's a big pile, mostly Home Assistant related.
So I’ve figured this home assistant part .
It goes ;
Create- event - ui
Action - launch app- google assistant- say - show “camera nam”
The part I’d love to figure out is how to get all this to run smoothly in the background.
Could I possibly do this with the Ring app?
Is there any way of doing this through iPhone Paul?
Will this work with a Sony tv and with a ring doorbell
Now would this work with the new Google Doorbell? I don't think it runs in the nest app but on the home app
That depends on if the home app will run on android TV. If it will then yes!
@@paulhibbert Hi Paul. Could you please confirm if its working withe the new Google nest battery doorbell? Thanks 👍
Just a thought. I don't have nest and haven't used Tasker in a while. If the nest app is on the shield, would you get notifications on the shield and eliminate the phone steps. Would this not work or do notifications not come through on TV or are we just keeping notifications off so that it doesn't interrupt movies etc. Also, can you have it look for a specific word within a notification or someway to only open app with specific camera?
This is how I planned to do it before I realised android TV had done away with notifications in favour of toast pop ups. This ruined my day big time 😂
The answer to your second question is yes. You can put specific notes in your push bullet and have tasker react differently to different notifications. 😊
You should definitely do more of these. Great work
Ok i have no nest sooo i do have other cams can’t i just download my cctv app on Tv and job done ? X
Do i need all this to use this on Eufy?
Easy, peasy lemon sq......
😲 My brain is fried 😵😭
Think ill save my sanity and peep through the curtains instead 😅
A great tutorial for someone I'm sure👍
Will this work with the wyze doorbell?
could this work on a wall mounted tablet instead of tv?
As long as its android yes. 😊
