request: Camera functionality #153

Open JangoBritt opened 2 years ago

JangoBritt commented 2 years ago

Would there be a way to integrate the ffmpeg module to present the printer's camera as a feature of the same device in HomeKit?

I know there are other plugins that can create a HomeKit camera from an IP camera, but would be nice to have the attributes associated to the same device entry as far as HomeKit goes.

+bonus (long-shot) request: adding an overlay of printer temperatures or heat graph

It would be possible, though you could just use my other plugin, Camera FFmpeg, pointed at the camera URL. (That’s how I handle it.) I do see there being some benefit to having the camera in the same device though, so maybe?

I doubt I’d do anything with a graph overlay though, since if I remember right that’s all JavaScript and not something I could easily just snag.
