Any errors in the log?

[danhajduk]

I'm having the same problem, My cameras would become unavailable for a while and then I would have to reboot the camera and then turn the camera switch off and then on using WebUI.
this is the only thing I could find in the log files

Is mqtt enabled in your ha installation?

[slimjim2234]

Same issue here. Running y20ga Yi Hack v0.3.3 Entities do not update after 0.4.2 of yi-hack_ha_integration Currently running 0.4.2 to get camera streams working. Seeing similar symptoms in #115 #118 MQTT is running on HA. Enabling all MQTT service topics on the cameras didn't change the outcome.

[roleoroleo]

The problem is that the camera seems to be off but it's not true. I also own a y20ga and have no problems. What's your fw version, I mean Yi firmware, 8 or 12?

[roleoroleo]

Please open MQTT Explorer and check if you receive stat messages when the cam starts:

[slimjim2234]

I got it to work with 0.4.5, but had to enable the mqtt service on the camera and all of the associated mqtt topics as well. Now I have a lot of duplicate entities. Currently, the camera will not work if it is not synced with HASS over MQTT. This is not a desirable outcome.

[danhajduk]

I got it to work on my cameras but it would only work if I disable the cloud on the camera. It does work for me because i prefer to have it disabled.

[roleoroleo]

@slimjim2234 As you can read in the readme, this integration requires mqtt component.

But you don't have to enable mqtt discovery in the cam: http://192.168.0.245:8080/?page=mqtt_adv mqtt discovery is mandatory if you don't want to use this integration.

Just enable this option: http://192.168.0.245:8080/?page=mqtt

@danhajduk This integration is not related to the cloud connection. It must work with or without cloud.

@roleoroleo Thanks, its woking now. I just installed mqtt(mosquito) on HA and setup mqtt in the general mqtt page over the web on the cam. Will there be the intergation in the future or will you switch for using "Mqtt Advertise & Homeassistant MQTT Discovery" only?

I will support both technologies but I prefer to use my integration because there are more features:

• media sources
• ptz services
• speak service
• ...

[danhajduk]

@roleoroleo Yes I understand that it is not related to cloud service, but for some reason on my 2 cameras that is the what solved it. When I turn it on the camera in the integration becomes unavailable.

[roleoroleo]

Please, explain me the sequence.
