Good day, Im having difficulties with integrating an Ajax camera in Homey. I have installed ONVIF Camera from Adrian Rockall. The Ajax cam has ONVIF enabled. Im not able to get a screen shot from the camera in Homey. Can someone please help me.
Welcome to this platform Bas,
If there’s no APP for this device, you can’t add it to your Homey. There are generic devices, but not for cameras.
That’s not entirely true, Ruud.
The TS wrote the cam already works with the Onvif Camera app. This works with any camera supporting the generic ONVIF protocol.
But, in case of no snapshot functionality, it needs a specific developed app.

Please use the Onvif camera app topic for your questions, as mentioned at the app page @ homey.app store.
This way you reach the developer and fellow app users much better.

I’ve two Reolink cams, one has the same problem you mentioned, because it has no webserver to provide for the pictures.
You can test it in a browser, by copying the URL mentioned at cam Settings > Onvif Snapshot URL , like this one from my cam:
In these cases, you’ll need a specific app written for your cam brand/type.

Hey Bas,
Ben je hier verder mee gekomen? Ik loop tegen hetzelfde issue aan.
Hoi @Daniel_4 en @Bas_Kleijnjan , mochten jullie Ajax camera al willen gebruiken in Homey. Bij mij doen de deurbel en camera het perfect met juiste detectie (bel gedrukt/ visitor detected). Ik hoop dat Addy Rock het snel integreert in de onvif app, anders zou je mijn dev versie van de PR kunnen proberen.
Hoi Allard,
Wat een verassing dit bericht te ontvangen. Ja ik ben wel geïnteresseerd het te proberen !
@Daniel_4 Je vindt m’n PR met ajax support gewoon op github in de repo van Addy Rock
