Added battery powered camera - no stream, no snapshot - but img ok.

[dwdonnelly]

@mrlt8 I have added a new external battery-powered camera to the docker wyze bridge. In the docker wyze bridge camera views, when I click "Streams" and select RSTP Snapshot, a new browser tab opens with "404: Not Found".

Also, when I add a generic camera for my dashboard, I can set the Still Image field with http://homeassistant.local:5000/img/deck-camera.jpg?api=<my API key> Note - img works to get an image, but snapshot does not. The "img" does update with a new img. The camera is staring at me, so I am sure it is active.
First question: Should I worry about the img vs snapshot source for the displayed picture? The docker wyze camera views and the dashboard generic camera still image do update correctly.

Also, I can not get the Stream Source to work. I have tried configuring this new camera as my other outdoor cameras are configured.
I used rtsp://wb:<my API key>@homeassistant.local:8554/deck-camera But I got an error "Timeout while loading URL"
I also tried rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/deck-camera But I get an error: "Timeout while loading URL"

Your help is appreciated.

Do the streams work directly in the webUI and or in another media player like VLC?

I put this in VLC: rtsp://wb:<my api key>@homeassistant.local:8554/deck-camera and yes - it shows correctly.

And yes - I then copied same rtsp://wb:<my api key>@homeassistant.local:8554/deck-camera and placed in the generic camera set up. AND EMBARRASSINGLY - it worked. Unbelievable!

I do not know what to say????? It works. You must have brought good carma to the issue. THANK YOU!

This issue simply solved. THANK YOU !

PS: Do I understand correctly - img or snapshot is fine to use?
