[APP][Pro] Support for ONVIF compatible cameras (Release 2.0.60, Test 2.0.60)

The common problem is that users mistake the button to enable motion detection with the motion detected status. I have asked many times for the button title to be displayed on that page.

If that’s not the case, then can you send me the logs from the app settings page. Set the log level to Detailed information and then move in front of the camera and press the button, then tap on Send Log.

thanks! It worked. Very happy! But…

Now I get notifications for every movement etc. I only want it for pushing the doorbell. I deactivated awarness for example for passing the line, animals, dark mode etc. Only visitors is on. But I get notifications for movement. But in the flow I only adressen when visitor alarm is set to on.

What am I doing wrong?

The problem is that once you enable motion it turns on the events and the camera then sends all events. Originally, the app only supported motion, but more options were added over time, so the motion event is still triggered by default.

The Flows do have separate trigger cards for the other types of event, such as:

So you can use that which will ignore the standard movement events.

Wonderfull Adrian! Thanks to your help it worked! Thank you!

Same here unfortunately…

Hi @Adrian_Rockall, can you please have a look at my Pull Request in which I have integrated support for Ajax camera’s, the Ajax doorbell + button press and a fix for the OOM generated by massive amount of events from the cams? Kind regards, Allard

Hi,

When I use Person or Vehicle detected flow cards, I always get a double triggering, so fast after each other, that I cannot ‘program’ me out of it (blocking second triggering). Using Motion flow card detecting give only one at the time.

I’ have tired to look into the log file to se if it was coming from the camera itself, but could not figure it out.

I have Reolink cameras.

Any with this behavior?

Hi, I bought a cheap Jooan 2k PTZ camera. I can add it in the app, but immediately when I click the camera in Homey I get ‘ Internal Server Error. I also downloaded the Onvif Dvice manager and it is fully supported. I created a log: 4c84e908-4f1e-4864-ac78-ef8fd2ae7e96

The first error I see is

2026-01-27T17:09:13.466Z [log] [MyApp] Error getting services: undefined

Apart from that the log is very sparse. So, could you:

  1. Delete the camera from Homey

  2. Open the app settings page and select the Diagnostics Log tab. Then change the Log Level to Detailed Information.

  3. Now try adding the camera again

  4. Go back to the log page and hit Send Log.
