Hey all I’m looking for recommendations for a video doorbell that doesn’t need an internet connection.

Preferably something that is WiFi and would work with Frigate?

    I went with this but PoE. Happy so far.

    Have not used Frigate

      When using reolink in a self-hosted setting:

      • how do you get notifications of someone at the door?
      • can you use the android app still?
      • how do you securely store video on your server? They say they support ftps, but I have no idea how hard that is to set up. Shame they don’t support sftp.

      Thanks

        With ftps, can you use a self-signed cert? If so, how does it verify the cert? Do you have to upload the public key, or does it cache it on first use?

        I bought one of their NVRs, so that currently stores recordings. I have yet to figure out how (or if) I want to integrate with my NAS or other (tbd) home automation.

        I get push notifications on my phone and watch by having the Reolink app installed.
