Payload & value errors in logs during HA startup

Hi, when I start HA i get these two errors related to YiHack. What should I do to avoid them? Thanks

Hi, bumping. After many updates to the Integration and the Camera firmware, I'm still seeing this issue. I've checked the camera configuration and values are all correct, nothing seems out of place, there are no invalid fields.

I'm not able to link this error with a line of code of this integration. Is there an error trace? Are you sure that it's related to YI-hack? Did you enable mqtt advertise in the cam?

Hi @roleoroleo Might not be related to the integration, but it's related to the camera, because the text/payload contains settings that are related to the camera.

MQTT Advertise settings section:

• MQTT Information Advertise: disabled
• MQTT Link Advertise: disabled
• MQTT Camera Settings Advertise: enabled
• MQTT Telemetry Advertise: disabled
• Home Assistant: enabled

There is no error trace:

I thought it might be related to some of these camera settings, but i re-saved all of them and got no errors in the camera GUI.

Additional info: I can always replicate these errors when I attempt to make changes to the Camera settings from HA Device page.

Please try to disable:

MQTT Advertise settings section: Home Assistant: enabled

If you use this integration, you don't need mqtt advertising. Then remove the cam from mqtt section in ha and check if the error disappears.

[auanasgheps]

So I disabled the Home Assistant option in MQTT Advertising, removed the camera entry from MQTT in Home Assistant, rebooted. These errors have disappeared. I only lost the option to set the camera preset position, but I don't think it ever worked.

I think I'm good to go, thank you!

I only lost the option to set the camera preset position, but I don't think it ever worked.

I don't know if it worked through mqtt. If you want to set the presets, you can use the webgui or the onvif protocol.
