I’m running: - Homey Protect app 1.9.9 - UniFi Protect 7.1.75 Camera: - G6 Instant Symptoms: - snapshots work - detections work - camera is online - Protect shows live video correctly - _**Homey live view stays black everywhere (mobile app, web app and dashboards)**_ Other cameras (G6 Turret etc.) work normally. `camera_connection_status = true` `camera_recording_status = true` RTSP stream exists. Re-adding the camera, restarting Protect and Homey app, changing encoding settings and rebooting the NVR do not solve the issue. Could this be a G6 Instant compatibility issue with Protect 7.1.75? ---

@Krollen I’ve been debugging a similar issue with my doorbell, and my conclusion so far is that you need to set standard encoding and custom framerate of 24. If you are viewing from a different network open up port 8555 from your client network to Homey or the network your Homey is in.
