zmodo-ha

A custom Home Assistant integration to use with Zmodo cloud only non-nvr cameras.

Why

My kids keep waking me up at 3:30am and I cannot sleep so... why not? Also, it is a painful manual process to get these cameras working and I'm hoping this reduces the pain.

How to use

  1. Unzip into your custom_components directory with folder name "zmodo".
  2. Restart HA (full on restart not just reload)
  3. Settings, Devices & services, + Add integration
  4. Search for Zmodo
  5. Enter in your username and password
  6. The next screen will show you a base64encoded image. Because I haven't figured out how to show this yet, you have to manually use something to get the image. I used this for my testing.
  7. Input the correct captcha digits
  8. If all goes well, you be asked to add your devices and optionally add a location

Future improvements

  • Toggle SD/HD 📺
  • Add events (sound, motion, etc.) 📈
  • Actually show captcha image on integration form 😮‍💨
  • Attempt local only mode ☁️
