ring VS homebridge-vivint

Hey I am trying to install a plugin to timelapse with my ring camera that i found on github ( https://github.com/wictorwilen/ring-timelapse) . i was able to get till the end of the tutorial but I came into a problem im not able to figure out. I keep on getting this error message (node:30) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Refresh token is not valid. Unable to authenticate with Ring servers. See https://github.com/dgreif/ring/wiki/Refresh-Tokens. after I try updating the ring-client-api it still gives me this error. If someone got any clue let me know :)

[29/06/2023, 21:37:01] [Ring] Failed to activate stream [29/06/2023, 21:37:01] [Ring] Error: Failed to negotiate codecs. This is a known issue with Ring cameras. Please see https://github.com/dgreif/ring/wiki/Streaming-Legacy-Mode at /usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-ring/node_modules/ring-client-api/lib/streaming/streaming-connection-base.js:42:25 at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)

Had the same issue. This fixed it for me: https://github.com/dgreif/ring/wiki/Notification-Troubleshooting

Here's the ring-homebridge plugin: https://github.com/dgreif/ring/tree/main/packages/homebridge-ring

The scrypted guys are aware of the issue and will push a ring update soon. I fixed my homebridge ring issue following a tutorial a guy posted on github.. you do it all from the homebridge web gui, look for "terminal" in the upper right click that then follow this: https://github.com/dgreif/ring/issues/1192

Hello, I cannot setup the ring plugin. I input my email and password and click save. Nothing happens....I never get a 2FA code. I open the console and it says error: Refresh token is not valid. Unable to authenticate with Ring servers. See https://github.com/dgreif/ring/wiki/Refresh-Tokens. I have my refresh token available from HomeBridge, but I am unsure what my next step is?

You mean this one https://github.com/balansse/homebridge-vivint

If you use HomeBridge, here is the issue tracker for this: https://github.com/balansse/homebridge-vivint/issues/37

But it does look like someone just posted a feature request for this on the homebridge-vivint plug-in GitHub just two days ago, so maybe the plug-in author is on it!

Although a little bit sloppy, there is a way to do it using Homebridge and Vivint plugin. They will integrate Vivint devices including the doorbell into Apple HomeKit which results in all HomePods chiming when the doorbell button is pressed. However, this might not work for you if you are not dealing with Apple products at all.

Hi! I am the developer responsible for supporting the current Vivint Homebridge fork. Thank you for the feedback, I will check it out!

I used HomeKit and the HomeKit Controller Plugin.
