News

• It is now possible to download recorded videos, and in full quality with sound through a script. See pytapo readme for more explanation. This has been worked on for more than 2 years with a lot of dead ends and 10s to 100s of hours spent on it across multiple developers. It was finally possible thanks to go2rtc and Alex X, who found the last missing piece of the puzzle yesterday. Huge thanks also goes to Davide Depau who discovered and wrote the first implementation and core of streaming communication protocol used for this.
• It is now possible to use camera as media_player, see webrtc integration readme. This gives you a possibility to send any sound to the camera, or even open 2 way talk session via a browser in any device.
