Unifi Camera Update! (Fix Available for Testing Now)
-
I just updated to the latest beta 0.0.6 version and it works! Using the @tunnel, @fixaudio tags. Thank you so much for your work on this! So glad to have Unifi cameras working with Echo’s again after the Unifi Protect 2.0 update.
-
@Monocle Bad me. I had assumed that the fix was on the website. I have now updated my Monocle Gateway to the 0.6 beta version. I installed the DEB package and verified that the service is up and running with a sudo systemctl status monocle-gateway. I uninstalled the 0.0.4 gateway with the uninstall script prior to installing 0.6.
None of my cameras work now. Unifi or otherwise. The token is still located in /etc/monocle/monocle.token. Has this changed?
-
Hi Robert
Fantastic news, thank you so much for your work!!
-
No, nothing changed related to token. It certainly should not have broken existing working cameras. Can you post a copy of the log at the service is started and making a single camera request?
Thanks, Robert

@Monocle I had to restart the service a second time and now it is up and humming. Hey, look at my posting regarding my Reolink RLC-820A 4k camera. After a year, I have not had anyone suggest a solution to it not working. With the new beta of Monocle Gateway both of my G3 Instant cameras on Unifi Protect are now working great on my Echo Show 10’s and my Fire TV 4k max.
-
Works fine again, tested with G4 Pro and G3 Bullet. Thank you so much!
What is not working (but that is no new issue, that also didn’t work before):
- 3840x2160 stream from G4 Pro (tested on Echo Show 8)
The other streams
- 1280x720 from G4 Pro
- 640x360 from G4 Pro
- 1920x1080 from G3 Bullet
work fine.
-
So happy to have my cams back on my Echo devices!
New building working well so far this evening.
Thank you!

Finally found this thread.
Running a Win7 machine.
Have been running monocle from a batch file, the night I got it working, it worked , left it alone.
Easy to stop and restart when there’s an issue.So downloaded the beta file "monocle-gateway-windows-x64-v0.0.6.zip "
Replaced the 3 files.
When I attempted to start if from my batch file, it just stops at the monocle directory where the call is made to start monocle-gateway.exe.If double click on monocle-gateway.exe from the 0.6 beta, via the win explorer (which I could do with the older version and it fired up), I get…
Input appreciated…
TIA. -
sorry for the dup, can’t delete the OG.

@cory_booth Sounds about right. If you are still having an issue, drop by the Ubiquiti-Unifi channel on https://chat.scottibyte.com/ and I can see if I can help.

This seems like something did not compile correctly on the Windows build.
Let me try testing it here and I may need to rebuild it and send you another build to try out.Thanks, Robert

I’ll take a look :-)

I can confirm I am running ok on the windows build.
I am running Server 2022 x64
Not sure if the windows 7 is x86 or x64?
-
@Monocle Thank you. I’ll try the new file set when available.
-
First, thank you for all that you are doing here! I am not Linux/Pi savvy, which may be part of the problem. I still cannot get this to work. Here’s what I’ve done so far:
-Uninstalled 0.0.4
-Installed beta 0.0.6
-I’m using a Pi
-Ubiquiti Protect v2.1.2 with managed cameras
-G4 Dome cameras tested at low/medium/high resolutions
-Various combinations of @noaudio @fixaudio and of course @tunnel
-Echo Show 5 running Fire OS 6.5.5.2 and 6.5.5.3
-The Pi gateway appears to be working fine. DNS resolves.
-Regardless of the video resolution and/or no audio, no diceAny thoughts?
-
@SunnyAnd75 Come on over to https://chat.scottibyte.com/ and I can help you out.
-
Can you post the log info from Monocle Gateway after requesting the camera stream from Alexa?
Thanks, Robert

I have not had a chance to test v0.0.6 on Windows yet but can you try re-installing the VC++ runtime dependencies – maybe thats the issue?

Thanks Robert. So downloaded it again, ran the install. And gave it a try.
Results, the exact same symptoms. The 0.6 beta does the same thing : from the batch freezes at the command line where the monocle-gateway.exe is called.
If I go into windows file manager, and double click on the monocle-gateway.exe, get the same warning window.
If I put the OG (V 0.0.4)files back on, it all runs , from the batch or from double clicking on the monocle-gateway.exe.
