Hi Martijn, sadly the placeholder still doesn’t get refreshed.

@Andy_Henderson strange because I reverted the SDK to be I line with the live version  
That would mean there’s something else going on  
I really don’t see the relation with that but nevertheless will check. This is really keeping me from putting trough the test version to live

@Glenn_Dijkstra there’s nothing in your report stating that you tried a update  
Please reproduce your issue and then send a new report

@b1ue3AGLE ~~can you provide context to your message?~~

Edit: saw your message.  
As already mentioned before, the Eufy app in Homey doesn’t do anything with the stream it’s just fetching the url from the camera and putting that into the Homey live stream.

So there’s nothing i can see/do/change to make your live stream work. This is something in your network or something else, but i can’t do anything

@Andy_Henderson I searched everything but i don’t see why the battery difference would be there.  
Can you install the TEST version and send me a diagnostic report? Maybe there’s something in the logs

Feel free to go back to the live version after that

@martijnpoppen Of course. As it happens, I’m running 3.39.0 having changed ‘Use generic motion alarm?’ to ‘Yes’ to see if it made a difference. I don’t think it has.

e8c6ed19-5639-4b36-aac8-fad528be8e38

I see the original option to enable snapshots no longer exists in the post 3.37.0 versions. I had that set to ‘no’. Could that account for the difference?

@Andy_Henderson that shouldn’t matter as snapshots are now locally on Homey, but only when you trigger the snapshot card. It’s not drawing any data from your camera

@Glenn_Dijkstra doorbell press almost never has a picture. Also seen in the FAQ. But in the logs I see that the picture was updated properly

Well, maybe that’s my manual press on the refresh button, but the picture sadly still is the same as you can see over here:

Same thing for my other cameras. Even on human detection, the image keeps saying placeholder

@Glenn_Dijkstra well, you are making a screenshot of the snapshot, but you expect to see a event image. Can you change the dropdown to event? click on the dropdown of `Deurbel - Snapshot`

Can you try to create a snapshot with a flow? Just to check if that’s also not working

Never used that. Just like this I guess?

I guess I could go back toi the non-experimental app to check if it still works there. It did before I went to the experimental for the live streaming part.
