Need a robust RTSP viewer for multi-user office

Indoor cameras that connect with HomePod and iCloud?
You can use virtually any IP camera you want thanks to HomeBridge. I am currently using a Yi cam that I hacked then I’m using HomeBridge and camera-ui.ip plug-in for it. Not the most straightforward, but the cheapest, and setting up HomeBridge unlocks so many possibilities with smart wifi things that are not HomeKit native.

Raspberry Pi - Local Camera CSI - Raspberry Pi
Now that this is a Homebridge Raspberry Pi, I can't find any plugins allowing me to use the camera. Only RTSP plugins, like camera.ui (https://github.com/seydx/homebridge-camera-ui)...

Any HomeKit (only) doorbells that don’t suck?
Recently I came across a new home bridge plug-in for rtsp cameras which enables HKSV support. Here it is https://github.com/seydx/homebridge-camera-ui

Delayed start of FFMPG cameras
Homebridge-camera-ui is very well maintained and works well. I’d use it over homebridgecamera-ffmpeg for now, unfortunately the author of homebridge-camera-ffmpeg has had some difficulties lately and hasn’t had much time to update it.

Has anyone else been having trouble with the Wyze server. Literally everything I have is down, except for the outdoor cameras for some weird reason. Started sometime last night around 1 AM
So I have a Raspberry Pi. On that Pi, I have Portainer and Home Bridge. On Portainer, I'm running Wyze Docker Bridge which pushes your steams to several formats including RTSP. I'm also running Camera.ui in Home Bridge. There's nothing unique about the Pi in this arrangement, beyond being always available – so it's a set up you could replicate on any computer.

Wyze Homebridge Plugin Overview (Oct. 2021)
Following up, looks like the way to get Wyze cams working would be via flashing their RTSP firmware (which looks to include v3 cam support now) and using a plugin that supports RTSP cameras like homebridge-camera-ui or homebridge-camera-ffmpeg. I have a v3 cam as well, I will be doing this myself soon now that I know they provide a download for the firmware. I think also saw something about a docker container that provides a RTSP bridge for Wyze cams without requiring firmware, if that is something you prefer.

The privacy loophole in your doorbell
I also have only HSV cameras or Ubiquiti ones for this reason. Everything I care about is stored on-site or in the cloud with end-to-end encryption, no privacy or surveillance state enablement concerns.
There's a great HomeBridge plugin which enables HomeKit Secure Video on my UniFi Protect cameras: https://github.com/hjdhjd/homebridge-unifi-protect

Housebreak-in happened, all ubiquiti is gone
For the plug-in ? There’s the repository.

G4 Doorbell > Homekit > Apple TV
I have Homebridge running on a tiny VM. I then use the Homebridge-Unifi-Protect plugin. All of this works independently of my hub (which is Hubitat), although I have a plugin that allows Homebridge to "see" the various Zwave/Zigbee/Lutron stuff I have configured in my hub.

UniFi Protect - Upload to cloud on motion detection?
Can't do it with Ubiquiti alone. You can do it with third-party stuff. For example, I use Homebridge with this plugin. That enables all the cameras with HomeKit Secure Video, and then you can set HomeKit to do the upload on motion. There are similar plugins for other set ups. Since you enable RTSP for all the cameras then the options are pretty limitless. So yeah, it's annoying there isn't a first-party solution, but it's definitely possible with a little extra kit/software.
It was added a few months ago. You don't need to do anything since it's enabled by default now. You can read more here but basically just install the plugin and then all the cameras appear as fully HKSV compatible in HomeKit and you can use the Home app to turn on things like motion detection, upload to iCloud, and facial recognition.
- Can the protect app on Apple TV / Android TV keep streams up indefinitely or will they timeout?

Homekit Secure Video for (almost) any RTSP capable camera
Currently using https://github.com/hjdhjd/homebridge-unifi-protect and it’s working well. If I understand the main benefit is gaining hsv to store in icloud?
