firmware VS openmiko

Contains closed source binary blobs. It’s commercial with open source components.

You can get onvif-compliant firmware for some of those, but battery-powered operation cannot be expected to remain practical, given what onvif focuses on.

> Majestic code while is not open, provides unprecedented performance and capabilities for a wide range of hardware. The author of Majestic streamer is looking into possibilities to open-source the codebase after he secures enough funds to support further open development. You can help to make it happen sooner.

Crazy wide amount of chips supported. My main barrier would be that my current camera has nice hardware h.265 encoding. I haven't dug deep but whether I can keep that or not would be a potential deal breaker.

The OpenIPC project has more recent code for these chips (though even that seems to be 4.9) https://openipc.org/

Have a Wyze Cam V2 running openmiko. I can pull the feed via the camera's IP, but Klipper (Fluidd, Mainsail on BTT CB1) shows like below. Additionally, moonraker-timelapse throws an error. This was working fine until I tried Hyperlapse. Now I can't wrap my head around this

I'm running MainsailOS, and a Wyze cam v2 running openmiko. I have Tailscale installed on the Pi for remote access. In Mainsail config, I have the camera configured via private IP. When I access the web control panel externally, I do not get video output. Is there a way to get this to work? I do not think there's a way to connect the Wyze cam to my tailnet.If it's not possible, have any good recommendations for a good, cheap, wide-angle (110 degrees FOV or better) camera I can purchase? I wouldn't want to spend more than $25 for one. Quick search yielded this one, but don't know if there's a Klipper-community recommended one that everyone uses.

you wish lol. the mod allows you to get highest possible resolution video out of it without all the compression pixelation. its super easy to install. but it does take a little bit of linux knowledge to edit config files and stuff. heres the link if interested: https://github.com/openmiko/openmiko

I bought a used Wyze Cam V2 relatively cheap and installed OpenMiko on it for example.

I have a WyzeCamV2 running OpenMiko firmware, which supports (and I have configured for) H264 RTSP streaming. I can view the video stream through VLC with the url rtsp://192.168.1.199:8554/video3_unicast. I am executing the command docker run -p 8081:80 --name mycamera -e AGENT_CAPTURE_IPCAMERA_RTSP="rtsp://192.168.1.199:8554/video3_unicast" kerberos/agent:latest on my host. The agent seems to run fine and I can connect via browser. With our without AGENT_CAPTURE_IPCAMERA_RTSP... set, I cannot add the RTSP stream; no cameras show attached and when I try to connect one via dashboard->settings, it just spins. The logs aren't really helpful (see below).

OpenMiko is one example.

That's why I only use cameras flashed with open firmware: https://github.com/openmiko/openmiko

If all else fails, you can flash different firmware and use them locally. I'm using [OpenMiko](https://github.com/openmiko/openmiko) on my Wyze Cam v1 (I'd assume there's a similar open-source project for the v3), and Wyze themselves publishes an RTSP firmware. Without a bit of technical know-how and some supporting hardware (namely a router than supports OpenVPN) you won't have access to the stream off your local network, but you can stream locally with VLC Player.
