Also, if anyone has any suggestions to improve the config etc. The camera does display an image if you go to 192.168.1.XXX/jpg (with the filename 'capture' - see screenshots and code snippet below) but I don't know enough about camera-ffmpeg to get this still image served to apple Home. The app does, however, show the last frame captured from the video stream as the thumbnail. I cannot get camera-ffmpeg to grab that image and send it to Home. If i go to the url in the config with a browser it serves up a jpeg. This is going to be a homemade doorbell camera and is working like a charm except for one slight issue - I cannot get the plugin to capture a snapshot / still image jpeg.

This isn't the biggest problem ever but I'd definitely like to see if it can be sorted!Īfter many days trying to get home bridge-camera-ffmpeg to recognise a http stream from an ESP32 Cam, (despite using the config given in the tested configs part of the git - this always resulted in 'ERROR: FFmpeg exited with code 1') I found this instructable on how to get the ESP Cam to stream via RTSP:
