11 months ago @idanlah Actually there are both channel and host capabilities for email, push, ftp etc: Channel specific: https://github.com/starkillerOG/reolink_aio/blob/6e6dadaa4c77c7c47db7daef45d11cd12d0eaeb2/reolink_aio/api.py#L945-L958 Host specific: https://github.com/starkillerOG/reolink_aio/blob/6e6dadaa4c77c7c47db7daef45d11cd12d0eaeb2/reolink_aio/api.py#L908-L921
This has to do with NVRs that can set both global settings (host level) and channel settings (connected camera level).
In your example it does not work since you first need to call get_host_data.
get_host_data always needs to be called as the first command to retrieve the capabilities and infromation about the NVR/camera.
I schould make some proper documentation for this library, but just did not find the time yet to write it.
So this schould work:
await host.get_host_data()
await host.get_states()
print(host.email_enabled())
sleep(30)
await host.get_states()
print(host.email_enabled())If it does not, please add these lines to enable debug logging:
import logging
_LOGGER = logging.getLogger(__name__)
logging.basicConfig(level="DEBUG")Then post the debug logs here so I can see what is going on.
If you appreciate the reolink integration and want to support its development, please consider sponsering the upstream library or purchase Reolink products through this affiliate link.

Describe the bug get_states() won't update Host related capabilites' states like email, push, record etc. this is due to
self.supported(channel, "email")function which is called inget_states(self)returns False even though E1 Zoom supports email for example.self.supported should be called with
self.supported(None, "email")in order for the function to return True and update the state because the cpababiltiy is underself._capabilities["Host"]and notself._capabilities[channel]as seen in construct_capabilities method:To Reproduce
if email is disabled at the start of the script and then enabled from the APP when the script sleeps the state won't get updated and the result will be: False False
instead of: False True
Expected behavior channel specific capabilities work as expeced:
print: False True
when you enable the status LED from the APP on while sleeping
Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.
Environment: Reolink E1 Zoom firmware ver. v3.1.0.264923083101 Hardware ver. IPC_566SD664M5MP
Additional context the problem arrises in home assistant where email on event, push notifications and other switched won't update their state when i change the state in the APP.
