Custom doorbell app with Home Assistant and WebRTC

This is so cool! `go2rtc’ is the key too so many cool projects, doesn’t get talked about enough

It’s a bummer you had to deal with TURN. Be nice if something was easier here.

naps62•2mo ago
turned out that this didn't take that much of my time. my existing setup happened to be easy to adapt. it was mostly about finding the right config for go2rtc, and setting up port forwarding
hamdingers•2mo ago
You can accomplish the same thing without any custom software. I have a Reolink PoE doorbell, using Frigate and Home Assistant like OP, and the Advanced Camera Card from HACS.

Ringing the doorbell sends a notification with a snapshot and a link that takes me to a tab in the dashboard with the advanced camera card. I can then use it to speak if I so desire, and I've also set up buttons on that page for the "quick reply" messages.

naps62•2mo ago
Author here. I did that. I've used Advanced Camera Card for a while now, and the tutorial I link for a doorbell similar to mine does that too.

it's just that the resulting UI is terrible in my opinion (both due to home assistant itself being a bit cumbersome to boot, and because customizing the UI with things like card_mod is a terrible experience)
