Cam is just loading forever

[pbutler82]

I have watched several videos and read a bunch of posts but am still running into an issue. I installed the wyze docker bridge using the blue HA Add-Repository button. Once it was installed, I added my wyze login info to the configuration along with the key id and api key I got from logging into the wyze developer site. I added the bridge ip, and changed the 'Allowed Net Modes' to all. I also disabled the 'WebUI Auth'.

I can see the camera just fine in the wyze iphone app. When I go to view the camera with the webui or in HA, it says it has detected the cam and shows the correct name. However, it just seems to be loading forever. The loading icon just goes on and on and never loads. Any thoughts on what I might be causing this? Thanks for your help and advice!

i just installed this, I have a V3, and 2x V4's. only the V3 (older firmware) is streaming fine. The V4's just spin no matter what I've tried (Feed is fine in the Wyze app) - I believe they're not 'connecting' to wyze bridge - happy to help troubleshoot, just let me know how.

Search issues for connection failures or iotc errors. @mrlt8 Really need to put a disclaimer that wyze changes have rendered this project inoperable except for certain Linux installs and/ir certain older devices with old fw.

Well, that's a dickpunch from Wyze. Like I needed any more reasons to ditch Wyze =/

I just installed this add-on and am getting IOTC_ER_TIMEOUT on my Wyze Cams resulting in no video feed.

For reference cameras firmware:
1: 4.52.9.3415
2: 4.50.14.3339
3. 4.36.14.3497
4. 4.36.14.3497

Hi here, did you guys happen to try setting network to host? Mine has been working great for months with a mix of v3, v3 pro and v4.

I saw a post somewhere that the cams need to be on the same network. One of my cams is on the same network as the HA & Wyze-Bridge docker and its the only one that when I select HLS Stream i get the video All the others just spin. I really dont want my cams on the house network, i want them in a IOT network. So now I am wondering if i ran Wyze-Bridge on a separate machine on the same IOT network would that work?

I am not familiar with HA, but in the portainer docker setting, I need to change the Network to "host" instead of using the default option "bridge".

hmm, video feed started to load, nice!

[itcsburnett]

In my case it must have been a firewall issue. I decided to deploy Wyze-Bridge on a linux lab machine in the same IOT network and that worked like a champ. It even pulled in the one camera that is still on the default network.

Running in on host network, still not working properly, all the V3 and below show up fine, V4 still offline.
