I'm expieriencing the same problem. On an older installation (2021.8.8) it worked like a charm. Now I did a clean new install with 2022.12.8 and I'm missing the video entities. Different to the post above the relay entities are created and working in my enviroment.

Well, and some minutes later it just worked without any change. The camera entities appeared and work fine. Maybe just some patience needed @mspinolo?

The IR and relay were migrated from switches to buttons a while ago (early 2022). The only control that is possible is to turn them on, the switches did not read the state of the camera, eg if a motion event turned on the IR it would not report in HA, and when switched on they had logic to force them to stay on and then automatically turn off after a hardcoded timeout. Because of these limitations, it made more sense for these to be buttons instead, as this more accurately matches the fire-and-forget nature of the API.

As for the video streams, there is no reason that those should have changed recently, since August, there have been no meaningful changes on the Doorbird integration side. Is there anything in the logs? Any way to roll back to older versions to see when exactly that changed?

Hi,

I think I found the issue and it has nothing to do with the integration. I recently activated pfBlockerNG with DNSBL and TLD active: doorbird.com and doorbird.net got blocked and that made to fail the "last ring" / "last movement" retrieval.

I had issue also with doorbird app once outside home in fact.

Whitelisted in pfBlockerNG settings and it seems solved now
