Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

The plugin exposes the camera RTSP video feed, and toggle accessories to configure your automations.

If your video feed is not working, try to check if any of the parameters at the video config can be tuned. You can use https://sunoo.github.io/homebridge-camera-ffmpeg/configs to check if someone has already found the right values for your camera.

[!IMPORTANT] On firmware build 230921 and higher, please follow this guide to make your camera compatible with this integration.

Toggle accessories

  • "Eyes" controls the privacy mode; when it's on it means that the camera is able to see (this is to make sure we support the command "Hey Siri, turn on Camera", as this will disable privacy mode).

  • "Alarm" switches on/off the alarm sound.

  • "Notifications" switches on/off the notifications sent to your TAPO app.

  • "Motion Detection" switches on/off the motion detection system.

  • "LED" switches on/off the LED.

An example Home automation could be:

  • When leaving home, enable Eyes, Alarm, Notifications, Motion Detection, LED
  • When arriving home:
    • If you care about your privacy, disable Eyes to switch on privacy mode
    • If you want the camera always on, but no notifications, just disable Alarm and Notifications

Motion sensor

The motion detection sensor is built on top of the ONVIF protocol and it is enabled by default.

Therefore you can set up automations and Homekit can send you notification in the Home app when motion is detected.

Make sure you activate "Activity Notifications" in the "Status and Notifications" tab in the accessory.

[!NOTE]
Some people may have issues resulting the plugin crashing at startup when this option is enabled. If you see an error like Error: read ECONNRESET at TCP.onStreamRead try to disable the motion sensor by setting disableMotionSensorAccessory to true

Installation

You can install it via Homebridge UI or manually using:

npm -g install homebridge-tapo-camera

Configuration

It is highly recommended that you use either Homebridge Config UI X or the HOOBS UI to install and configure this plugin.

FFmpeg installation

The plugin should take care of installing the ffmpeg automatically.

[!IMPORTANT]
If you're getting errors like FFmpeg exited with code: 1 and signal: null (Error), please follow the instructions here on how to install ffmpeg-for-homebridge binaries manually.
