Hikvision Player 0.1.0

Initial public release.

What it does

  • Adds a Home Assistant media_player platform for Hikvision ISAPI two-way audio/talkback endpoints.
  • Plays Home Assistant media through a Hikvision door station, intercom, or camera speaker.
  • Resolves Home Assistant media source IDs, /local/... files, and HTTP/HTTPS media URLs.
  • Converts input audio to mono 8 kHz G.711 u-law or A-law based on the codec reported by the Hikvision device.
  • Opens the ISAPI talkback channel, streams audio in real time, and closes the channel after playback.

Included

  • YAML platform setup for one or more Hikvision players.
  • hikvision_player.reload service for reloading YAML configuration.
  • HACS metadata.
  • README with rationale, installation, configuration, service-call examples, automation examples, limitations, and troubleshooting notes.

Notes

  • This is not a full camera/intercom/event integration. It is a purpose-built playback target for Hikvision ISAPI talkback audio.
  • HTTPS connections to Hikvision devices are not implemented; local-network HTTP ISAPI access is expected.
  • Supported device codecs are currently G.711ulaw and G.711alaw.
