Does your camera not have rtsp output most do? What make are they?
Thanks to you I now have flood warnings for my local river.
It's a Teckin TC100. Trying to interrogate it with Wireshark, but not getting anything too or from it's IP address and no RTSP traffic. Not sure if I'm sniffing it correctly as there must be some traffic when I have the app open on my phone and can see the video. Will try again tomorrow, but I suspect I just need to send these back and get ones that use rtsp.Thanks to you I now have flood warnings for my local river.
I picked up a couple of these the other week that come preflashed with Tasmota. They're great. You need to set up a MQTT broker though.

If you can ping the camera that should show in wireshark iv it's not then your doing it wrong 
When I Ping the IP address I get 4 packets sent, 4 received and I can see that in Wireshark as a ping request going from my PC to the camera IP address and the reply coming back. So that looks OK. I then apply the filter ip.src==xxx.xxx.x.xx and can see only the ping responses. I restart the packet capture and get nothing. I open the app on my phone and can see myself sat typing this, but Wireshark picks nothing up.
When I ping the camera again I get the reply in Wireshark immediately.
I then opened the audio connection from the app to the camera and could hear myself speaking, but no packets in Wireshark. From the ping I can see the MAC address, so I've googled how to filter to that and filtered to the MAC address. I can now see the pings and I can see some ARP broadcast traffic along the lines of "Who has 192.168.1.46? Tell 192..168.1.50" and a MAC address being sent back.
I go back to the camera app, can see myself on it again, but no traffic on Wireshark.
Any clues what I'm doing wrong?
you wont see traffic on wireshark if your not opening the ports from your machine that running wireshark
if you running wireshark on your pc you need to talk to the camera from that same machine or you will only see broadcast traffic otherwise.
unless you have really good switching that can support sniffing from a dedicated port

Just had a look in Ispy software and it suggests for hvn tc800 http://username
assword@ipaddress:80/?action=stream so may be a HTTP stream worth a try https://www.ispyconnect.com/camera/teckin
Is it Onvif compatable? if so use onvif addon.
Not sure how to remove that smiley from ip address

Oh right cool, for some reason I thought I could see all the traffic on the network.
Problem is there's no Windows app for the cameras, so I would need to get the proper Android Play store working on my PC to get that working. Hmmmm.
What happens when you put the IP address into a browser window?Problem is there's no Windows app for the cameras, so I would need to get the proper Android Play store working on my PC to get that working. Hmmmm.

Just had a look for the latest info on Tapo integration and it appears it can be done via a HACS integration.
Looks like it controls a lot of the Tapo devices Plugs, Energy Plugs, lights etc.

So I'm going to order a couple, even though I still have a couple of Kasa energy monitor plugs spare.
Just to confirm that the above Tapo integration works fine. To use TP-Links own app you need a separate one to the Kasa app.Looks like it controls a lot of the Tapo devices Plugs, Energy Plugs, lights etc.

Ordered a pack of 4 P100 plugs, I would have preferred the energy monitoring ones, but as with the Kasa ones no body has stock or they are stupidly expensive.
Now to have a look at what else there is in the Tapo range that I can automate, that there is zero point in automating.

That didn't work either and I've tried Onvif and can't get a connection that way either. assword@ipaddress:80/?action=stream so may be a HTTP stream worth a try https://www.ispyconnect.com/camera/teckin

Think they're going back, so any recommendations for similar cameras but Home Assistant compatible?
Well stuck ha in the pie to play with. I have my glowmarkt cad feeding in via mqtt that took a little time. Then I tried to do my Evohome setup using my hgi 80 device that worked easily on domoticz
Following the instructions that made no sense at all
"Modify config.yaml" ok where is it!
But thankfully ha forum members to the rescue and it's now seeming to work
I just need to figure out how to make it look nice
