Tapo C225 not working after firmware update & infinite Homebridge restart loop

[z0gst]

After upgrading C225 to a firmware version 1.0.27, I started getting the following errors on Homebridge. It looks like the camera still starts based on the logs, however another error seems to send Homebridge to an infinite restart loop.

Same firmware version here, just installed v2.3.2, can confirm that homebridge still restarts about every minute. The rtsp link seems to be working fine, same with motion sensor and eye switch. But the feed just wouldn't show up. Also noticed the port seem to be changing too. Logs:

No change, unfortunately still getting the same errors.

same issue here, after the update i can't use my tapo camera anymore. I'm using C320WS and I checked my credentials with VLC and the camera is working latest firmware. But no luck even with 2.3.2.
