    Experience with Unifi Protect and UNVR Pro

    I had another question. Why did you buy both the Cloud Key Gen 2 Plus and the UNVR Pro? Don't both of them have UniFi Protect installed? I'm just confused about how unifi gear works.

    How is this set up for viewing on your computer? How does it compare to UI3?

    Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret

    For IR for the camera I'm using a Tendelux unit with the camera IR turned off. In the video, I was using the onboard camera IR. Hadn't installed the Tendelux yet. Then I just have your basic LED motion detection flood light as well.

    Camera to watch over garden

    Well I learned a few things about these Tapo cams. I've only had a few deer visit the garden so far but both times the animal detection had a massive delay before scaring the deer away. Found out the AI animal detection is actually called "pet detection". As in dog and and cats. The article...

    Nest Thermostat with Home Assistant?

    I ended up installing my Nest thermostat out in my shop for heat only in the winter. Even then I keep it off unless I want some heat.

    Camera to watch over garden

    Added another layer of horror for the deer. Bought a couple LED strobe lights and plugged them into smart plugs. They are now part of the "Scare Deer" automation in Home assistant.

    Camera to watch over garden

    I ended up buying a second camera. The garden is really long and I wanted one at each end. This morning was the first time a deer came up to chow on the garden. It didn't stay long once the sprinklers kicked on. :p

    This is why female pieces of firewood fit better in the stove.

    Camera to watch over garden

    My lady gardener put her metal statue of a frog in the garden. It's about the size of a small dog. The camera kept identifying it as a "person". I had to move it.

    Camera to watch over garden

    Sadly you are stuck with only the settings in the app. And ONVIF Authentication is not in there. It's not really that big of a deal for what I'm using the camera for. The app sends you notifications of what time an alert came in. I can then go to BI under the camera timeline and see what it was.

    Camera to watch over garden

    I'm still tinkering with getting the camera to send BI it's own ONVIF trigger events. I have it set up exactly the same way I have all my Andy cams set up in BI but a "GetEvents error 00002f78" shows up in BI. It actually switches back and forth from "GetEvents OK" and "GetEvents error...

    Camera to watch over garden

    Yes you need the Tapo app to set up the camera. Once that's done you can find the IP address and block it in your router.

    Camera to watch over garden

    I'd still like to get ONVIF triggers to work using MQTT and receiving them in Home assistant. When I check the "Get ONVIF trigger events" box and do the find/inspect, that all goes fine. I then check the "ONVIF/camera events" box under the trigger heading. When I go to configure, it shows an...
