Echo show not displaying cameras
-
@Monocle I have the same issue. Where or what is my gateway instance? I have a skill which is use to connect to your service. That’s it as far as Alexa is concerned. If I log in the Monocle I see my cameras, is there a restart here?

Please follow this thread for further updates on this issue. This is for users who are NOT using the Monocle Gateway.

Thanks, Robert

@Monocle I don’t have my own gateway. I’ll refer to the other post. Thanks.

Just a quick poll … for those of you not using a Monocle Gateway … which Alexa devices have you been using to successfully display your camera feeds. And what camera models have you been successful with?
Thanks, Robert

You can test it again now (at your convenience) and see if its working again. I think I found and resolved the issue but have not been able to test it yet. Are you using RTSP feeds directly to your G3 cameras or are you using the RTSP feeds from a Unifi Protect NVR? I was testing feeds from the NVR but have only been able to get them working using the Monocle Gateway.
Thanks, Robert

For those of you not using a Monocle Gateway … it should be working again now. Tested and confirmed locally.
Thanks, Robert

@Monocle I can confirm that my Unifi Protect cameras (G3 Instants and G4 Instant) are working via the Monocle gateway.
