openmiko VS Pi-hole

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.

Si te preguntas, ¿por qué no usar Adguard o Pihole? 🤔

This is an overreaction, almost to the point of absurdity.

Risks inherent to pipe installers are well understood by many. Using your logic, we should abandon Homebrew [1] (>38k stars on GitHub), PiHole [2] (>46k stars on GitHub), Chef [3], RVM [4], and countless other open source projects that use one-step automated installers (by piping to bash).

A more reasonable response would be to coordinate with the developers to update the docs to provide alternative installation methods, rather than throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Pi-hole to block ads and tracking for my less technically savvy relatives

I ran a competing project[0] on my home network for a few years before I discovered NextDNS[1]. What I lost in performance (requests don't leave my house) I gained in portability: ALL my devices can take advantage – at home and away – and time-saved. PiHole works 90% of the time, but when it did stop working, I'd have to spend a bit of time fixing it. At $20/year, I simply couldn't compete with NextDNS.

Note: This isn't a shill for NextDNS; I love these kinds of projects and think they absolutely should exist, but NextDNS just happens to be one of those dead-simple SaaS tools that is an insanely good value.

It definitely IS an option, but at the network level.

It runs on damn near everything, and is a DNS level adblocker for the whole network.

I recently switched to Wipr [0]. It’s dead simple to use, and will auto update its filter lists in the background.

Adguard [1] is a decent free option.

I also use a Pi-hole [2] on my network.

Are you trying to build a DNS proxy (similar to Pi-hole) that intercepts DNS requests and checks for the ones that look harmful? If so, I would suggest trying to separately build a DNS client and a DNS server, before trying to integrate them together. Start with Beej's Guide to Network Programming if you need to learn the basics of sockets, and then take a look at the documents that define the DNS protocol itself (RFC1034 and RFC1035).

Setup a pi-hole.

It's definitely not as simple as installing an app on your phone, but I run a Pi-hole on my home network, and it does block ads in many games.
