I am having the same issue.

[sam011989]

Same issues. All cameras are "idle" not not transmitting any data.

[NeckBeardPrince]

Not that it seems to matter, but same issue here. Just started using HA, big disappointment.

Support for Abode Cam 2 was added to the backing library in jaraco.abode 0.6.0.

I have gone through the jaraco.abode code and confirmed that it does indeed properly talk to camera devices and shows them as online and I'm able to pull images from them.

``` jaraco.abode main @ pipx run --spec 'jaraco.abode>=5.2' abode --devices --interact 2024-05-13 16:40:28 INFO (MainThread) [jaraco.abode.client] Updating all devices... 2024-05-13 16:40:29 INFO (MainThread) [jaraco.abode.client] Login successful ... 2024-05-13 16:40:29 INFO (MainThread) [jaraco.abode.cli] Front Porch (ID: XF:b0c5ca318038, UUID: d19d0cf03b881208a8f6c6594fead48c) - Abode Cam 2 - Online ...

I'm unfamiliar with how HA interfaces with component modules. I'll inspect that next.

[jaraco]

I read through the camera module and I don't see anything out of order there.

Does anyone experiencing this issue have access to troubleshooting logs? See the troubleshooting guide for advice on how get the logs and how to enable debugging.

It's also possible that an issue was resolved between the 3.3.0 release of jaraco.abode (what's currently in HA) and the 5.1.2 release, so it may be worth waiting for the next release of HA following the merge of https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/117363 to see if that happens to solve any issues (though I give that a slim chance).
