Xiaomi-Dafang-Hacks VS scrypted

https://github.com/EliasKotlyar/Xiaomi-Dafang-Hacks is a particularly good example, the top of the README is a list of camera models and pictures of the camera. (It also mentions "Any other Device with Ingenic T10/T20" at the end of the list, so it might overlap with OpenIPC somewhat?)

For those who are anti-cloud or want a 2-tier system for any good reasons, Been using this with several wyzecam V2 cameras for 2 years with no issues other than the cameras not being low light sensitive like the V3, otherwise the setup is pretty solid and fast.

Default password inside Dafang firmware for Neocam Hey folks I'm attempting to change the seemingly hardcoded "root" "ismart12" password inside the Dafang firmware https://github.com/EliasKotlyar/Xiaomi-Dafang-Hacks

Wyze with custom firmware https://github.com/EliasKotlyar/Xiaomi-Dafang-Hacks

https://github.com/EliasKotlyar/Xiaomi-Dafang-Hacks works for me. It still crashes though, but with home assistant and mqtt control I can restart rtsp or reboot them. I use Frigate nvr for object detection and that provides mqtt stats, if the fps goes to zero that triggers a restart of rtsp if that fails to fix things then it is rebooted.

and don't overlook that user's other repos, as seems like there are quite a few fun things in there: https://github.com/koush?tab=repositories

I have taken a look at the page for debugging steps for Homekit recording and haven’t played with any setting mentioned there.

Unfortunately the options for HKSV doorbells is fairly limited. The Logitech circle view Doorbell looks like the best candidate but it has a spotty review history, with the biggest complaint being it breaking in direct sunlight.

I’m about to buy some cameras and I’m thinking of just buying Nest and using https://scrypted.app to bridge to HKSV.

In the demo video linked to from the Scrypted Github repo, the author has some kind of a delivery box (visible in the top camera), with a camera inside the box in night vision mode, able to report on whether there’s anything in the box. Does anyone know how this setup was achieved, or have done something similar to combine a camera with a closed delivery box?

You can migrate the scrypted setup with this: https://github.com/koush/scrypted/wiki/Scrypted-Backup-and-Restore

I see two options, both from brands that seem to be well-received on the brand report card.

You might want to try setting them up with Scrypted then use the plugin to get them into Homebridge.
