Hi, I am about to get a couple of the Verisure smart cameras. Is there any way to get these to work with Homebridge?

This plugin does not yet support IP cameras. Which specific camera hardware are you looking to buy?

Thanks, I am looking at these: https://www.verisure.no/produkter/smartkamera

Personally, I wound not buy such old tech. Someone wrote that it was an old Samsung(?) camera rebranded to Verisure when released.

For great IP cameras, you should check out UniFi 🙌🏻

I wouldn’t either normally, but I get them cheap secondhand to replace even older Verisure cameras that can only take stills if the alarm is triggered

Sure, then it might be a good idea. I was referring to the current retail price for that old tech.

Regarding getting them into HomeKit, I would try out any of the IP camera plugins first.

Thanks, I will try that!
