docker-wyze-bridge VS homebridge-camera-ffmpeg

I finally gave up trying to use the mini hacks to make RTSP work reliably. I ended up using Wyze Bridge [0] instead, and it has been far more stable. Using Frigate for the web UI. It doesn't make for a local-only solution, but I don't use my cameras to record anything that would bother me if other people saw it.

https://github.com/mrlt8/docker-wyze-bridge This project works well

No worries, I used Wyze Bridge, there’s no need to flash a firmware it just works with any stock Wyze firmware.

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.

homebridge-camera-ffmpeg hasn't been updated in several years and it was having issues even back then. I'd probably consider it to be a dead plugin.

So I bought a couple TP-link C100 cameras and paired them with Homebridge and Homekit with the camera-ffmpeg plugin. Everything works fine, except motion detection. I’ve tried the suggested workaround creating a dummy companion switch for the cameras, the switch gets created but only triggers a notification if I trigger it manually.
