[Config Support]: Help configuring new Reolink Battery WiFi Doorbell #14772
Describe the problem you are havingHello, I'm having trouble configuring my new Reolink Battery WiFi Doorbell I just recevied a few days ago. I think I've tried every configuration possible : port 1935, port 554, http:flv, rtsp... Looks like I cannot even connect to the camera (connection refused / timed out in the logs). It is not possible to configure users on the Reolink app / PC app. (Don't hesitate to give any other advice for the rest of the config) Version0.14.1-f4f3cfa Frigate config filemqtt:

I don't think the battery doorbell supports rtsp / continuous streaming, meaning it isn't usable in frigate |

@petertoth-dev No, you are misunderstanding. The doorbell supports RTSP, but because it is on battery the battery will die if it is continuously streaming as these cameras are not designed to do that.
This is not usable in Frigate |
|
@NickM-27 You can wake them up by requesting the stream, it'll just drain your battery faster. There are plenty of workarounds. |
|
There is no such thing as 'waking up" when you are continuously streaming. it has to stay "awake" and streaming the entire time. We just had an issue created today for this very thing because it was draining the battery too fast #20979 Frigate is not designed to work with battery cameras, and there are no plans to change this. |
|
The more time I spend here, the more I believe Frigate doesn't support anything but what the developers need it for :D |
|
The documentation is quite clear on what is and is not recommended. With tens of thousands of users, it is clear many people find Frigate useful. Running battery powered cameras is supported in that it can work, many users have various approaches to do this. Some projects such as https://github.com/kaffetorsk/arlo-streamer and https://github.com/roger-/blinkbridge bridge this gap with some clever ffmpeg behavior. But Frigate is not designed to work with these types of cameras OOTB. |
