The problem
Hi, I have an Waveshare ESP-P4-Eth since about 3 months and started slowly working on getting it to work.
Sadly as I got to the part which I wanted the most to integrate into HomeAssistant, it didn't work.
I want to use my Raspberry Pi cam (B) which came in the set.
Can anyone help with this or is there already a fix?
Which version of ESPHome has the issue?
