Camera stream cannot be viewed on connected instance #291

Open hax4dazy opened 1 week ago

Dupe of #129 but since that was closed I'm just making a new issue.

Viewing the camera works fine on the remote instance but on the "main" instance viewing the camera doesn't work.

@hax4dazy I have cameras at my remote HA location and am using a local camera entities on the main HA pointed directly to the URL/IP address of the cameras I'm interested in monitoring. I'm also using the go2rtc add-in so that I only have one port-forward at the remote location for all the cameras. Of course, PTZ doesn't work in this setup. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure this can be resolved in this component due to the heavy data traffic of video, but I'll leave this issue open in case someone sees it and can come up with a possible solution.

Ah yeah that worked somewhat. After correctly configuring go2rtc and connecting it to HA it now works. Going to leave this ticket open for anyone in the future to reference back to / if anyone wants to implement this into remote HA
