Live web cam

[Chris.sturgis]

Just wondering if anyone else is using a camera for a live stream. I am currently trying a wyze cam v3 with the beta firmware that enables rtsp feed, the feed then goes to my NAS drive which I have streaming to YouTube, I can also view via the Wyze app and NAS drive but I think it’s a cool feature to share the camera feed securely. I feel like the Wyze camera is geared for longer viewing distances so I am looking for recommendations for a closer view camera with rtsp or up capabilities. Attached is a photo of my setup and here is a link to the live view.https://www.youtube.com/live/32ebkgUy35A?si=wofUWkY6xuln0R_O

Update wyze cams running the beta rtsp firmware is not stable. Trying a eufy 2k camera now which has better resolution. https://www.youtube.com/live/32ebkgUy35A?si=wofUWkY6xuln0R_O

@ReefBum runs one, but I think it's an IP cam possibly.

He has a very nice camera as you can tell from the picture quality. @ReefBum what are you using for encoder software to relay to YouTube live?

Changed to a Reolink camera and using Streamlabs which seems to be more reliable

I run a Wyze cam 3. It works well. I don’t really care about resolution or video quality. I just use it to check in and make sure the house isn’t flooded!!! Also it basically lets me know if the power is out. I don’t run a controller so it’s nice to know

I've repurposed a baby camera we had from our younger daughter (https://www.lollipop.camera/?lang=en). The silicone 'tail' just hangs on the rim and is pretty easy to position. I like that the app creates a time series of stills that act as a time lapse. By scrolling through that I can see daily extension of corals. Put an orange lens on it too! Not cheap, but if you've had kids recently you might have one!
