[Bug]: Cameras don't work after update on hoobs

[DanLysk]

What happened?

Hi There, Thank you for your hard work on this plug-in... I currently use it with HOOBS. One of the plug-in upgrades "zapped" 2 of my Eufy Cameras that use to work and show up in the APPLE Home app with your plug-in on my Hoobs.

Eufy T8124 Floodlight Cam

Both use to work. I will attach a screenshot of the config and entry from the error log

Plugin Version

Hi @DanLysk

I don't exactly understand what your problem is, but I guess both cameras don't show up in the home app?

According to your config json there is no configuration for the individual cameras. Normally we use Homebridges config ui for setting this up, but since hoobs doesn't support that, you'll have to look into other issues for examples on how a config json should look like.

For example: https://github.com/homebridge-eufy-security/plugin/issues/225

Is this maybe what's wrong for you?

Good morning, thanks for touching base. Here’s a screenshot of my Apple home app and a screenshot of my Eufy app. Apple home now only shows two cameras. Though there are four in Eufy… it’s been some time now, and I don’t remember which HOObs or Eufy plugin caused this… but all four cameras did show up in the Apple home app at one time until that update.

Good morning, thanks for touching base. Here’s a screenshot of my Apple home app and a screenshot of my Eufy app. Apple home now only shows two cameras. Though there are four in Eufy… it’s been some time now, and I don’t remember which HOObs or Eufy plugin caused this… but all four cameras did show up in the Apple home app at one time until that update. 

I didn't see any screenshots, but that's no problem I think.

There was changed a substantial bit in the plugin with newer version 1.1.1 and especially 2.0 and above which might cause this. In detail the configuration schema was changed, so that you'll have to check if that's still working.

There's more described about it here: #1

The best would be to completely redo the setup.

If this doesn't help, you could read on some common issues in the wiki or report the error message here, so we can try to help.
