Liftmaster Garage Door Opener Camera

[Beef_Vegan]

Thinking this might be a stupid/quick question that I just had a hard time finding answers to. There's a camera integrated into the garage door opener. It goes to a MyQ app but i don't pay for storage or anything so if i ever look at the feed have to open app but obviously no storage since i don't pay for cloud which means just temporary live feeds... I don't really need it to be honest so i've mostly ignored it but was thinking, if there was a way to wire it somehow to something to get it onto Blue Iris, I could make it at least somewhat useful as like a low quality inside garage cam or something.

What would I even need to do (if possible) to take this camera on the opener and possibly wire it to a Blue Iris feed where the rest of my cam feeds are?

I suspect they are probably using proprietary firmware that only works with their app.

Gotcha, so probably not just a case of splicing wires. Was searching around if anyone had converted a cam like that before but couldn't find anything.

+1 to what @wittaj said.

I've got one (it was a freee promo on a new opener 2 years ago) and have no luck with it streaming to BI but honestly I didn't spend much time.

Instead I bought a $16 TP-LINK Tapo C-110 and have it streaming RTSP to BI. Has audio, SD card storage, is wireless only, can be assgned static IP, no cloud needed but free app is needed for set up and configuration, even has some ONVIF functions (has no embedded webGUI). Worth every penny. I spent $12 at a Chick-Fil-A after my first IV chemotherapy session today.

Oh god that sounds like a pain in the ass running Ispy and all that. I do not want to run through RTSP

OK, I got a TP-LINK Tapo C110 last week and have it streaming RTSP to Blue Iris 5 and also VLC. Not bad looking for a $25 wireless only, little cam with 2-way audio and selectable 720p/1080p/2K resolution.

As I stated in post 6, no iSpy needed. Here's how:

How to stream RSTP from TP-LINK Tapo C110 camera to Blue Iris or VLC

1. Install the Tapo app on your phone, open it and power up the Tapo cam. Refer to the included instructions if needed.
2. Configure...
