WyzeHacks VS openmiko

There have been several community developed projects for the wyze cams like WyzeHacks, wz_mini_hacks, and docker-wyze-bridge, however, it seems as though each project is slowly getting killed off with every new product and firmware release.

This firmware supports NFS mounts in favor of sd cards. It looks like it hasn't been updated recently, but it worked when I last tried it. https://github.com/HclX/WyzeHacks

Perhaps you're thinking of WyzeHacks or Xiaomi-Dafang-Hacks? (the latter does not work with V3 hardware)

I'm running the wz_mini_hacks image (https://github.com/HclX/WyzeHacks) where you run from a SD card and it has a rtsp server. You have the ability to ssh into the camera (which is pretty cool) and it's running Linux so you can do some troubleshooting.

You can also try this to try and make use of your existing wyze cams. https://github.com/HclX/WyzeHacks

look into WYZE cameras you can hack them to access and configure the cameras online. https://github.com/HclX/WyzeHacks

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.
