Hi all, i´m a veteran with a homey early 2016 that is puffing on just fine and got my self a Reolink E1 pro. I guess i did not read the internet all about it to find out that is has no web interface and the only way of remote watching or getting a snap is through a public website, bommer. The ONVIF Homey app finds my camera and i can add it to homey but nothing more. Trying to get a snapshot says either “method not allowed” or “connection reset” so that will not work, more bommer. Now this cam can be added to other 3:rd party applications like iSpy, IP camviwer and so on so i wonder; is that a way to have homey get snaps from these applications? Thanks ---

Ca you send the log from the ONVIF app Configure App screen after you try to get the snapshot? Also a screenshot of the Advanced settings page of the device in the ONVIF app. ---

Although I have just found this: | **CGI** | All Reolink cameras and NVRs except for battery-powered cameras, cameras in the NVR kits, E1 and Lumus | | --- | --- | | **RTSP** | All Reolink cameras and NVRs except for battery-powered cameras, cameras in the NVR kits, E1 and Lumus | | **ONVIF** | All Reolink cameras and NVRs except for battery-powered cameras, cameras in the NVR kits, E1 and Lumus | Not sure if the E1 **Pro** is any different. Now just found this 🙂 > Does Reolink E1 Pro support ONVIF? > > **The E1 Pro supports both ONVIF and RTSP** , so I was easily able to add it to my QNAP TS-253A’s Surveillance Station app. ---

Hey and thanks for your replay: frankly i don´t know what exactly to make out of this is it yes or no 🙂 Should it mean that the ONVIF can work with this cam? I´ve just sent you the log. ---

Frankly, I don’t know either as the information is conflicting from different sources. It’s possible the camera supports ONVIF (appears to support motion based on the image you sent me) but not a snapshot. I found a post on the HA forum that suggested the op had use another module to capture a still image from the RTSP stream. Unfortunately Homey doesn’t have the processing power to do that. ---

I’m following because I maybe want to trade my switchbot pan tilt cam for a Reolink E1 Zoom Camera ---

So, more reading and as far as i can understand is that the Zoom gots it all, webUI included. Another thing i have emailed Reolink support is that i can´t get anything out of my cam; trying the rtsp stream through vlc gives error, onvif snap link gives error … !? On their support site it states that a lot more ports can be set up than the only 3 ports i got: server, rtsp and onvif. no http or https port settings. I´ll see what they answer on this. > **[Which Default Ports Used by Reolink Cameras should be Allowed to Go Through...](https://support.reolink.com/hc/en-us/articles/900000627703-Which-Default-Ports-Used-by-Reolink-Cameras-should-be-Allowed-to-Go-Through-the-Firewall)** > > Applies to: All Reolink cameras and NVRs > Remote access can be divided into UID access and IP one. > When remotely accessing your camera by using UID, there are no designed ports for it, as the camera... to be continued… ---

As an update on this, after some emailing with Reolink support, they acknowledged that http/https is only supported for Zoom which means that it wont work in homey Onvif (except from Zoom). So i’ll see what Reolink has to offer för a Zoom instead. E1 pro does not support http/https, period. ---

Old thread I know, but does this mean that E1 Pro has onvif support? And http/https? Conflicting informatation on this as well.
