ESP32 Camera + Tasmota Firmware

Has anyone gotten Domoticz to work with the ESP32 camera running the Tasmota firmware? The Tasmota firmware uses port 81 with an image URL of "stream". This works in a browser alone and when I test the connection in Domoticz. But when I save the camera settings I get a broken link image in the list of cameras. Any ideas? I'm interested in the Tasmota firmware and not looking for a solution using other firmware. Thank you.

Domoticz normally needs a snapshot url, not a stream.

Edit: url seems to be http://DEVICE_IP:80/snapshot.jpg.

So in Domoticz you need to enter snapshot.jpg as image url and change the port from 81 to 80.

Edit 2: see also topic viewtopic.php?t=38246 were they suggest to use capture

Yep, port 80 with snapshot.jpg. Works perfect. Thank you.

I am not expert but I just want to say that It is possible that the issue is related to the format of the image URL or the settings in Domoticz. Here are a few steps you can try to troubleshoot the problem:

Verify that the image URL is correct by copying it from the Tasmota interface and pasting it into a browser. If the URL is not correct, you may need to adjust the settings in Tasmota or verify that the camera is properly connected to your network.

Check the Domoticz camera settings to ensure that the image URL is entered correctly, including any necessary prefixes or suffixes. For example, some cameras may require at the beginning of the URL.

Try using a different image URL format in Domoticz, such as including the IP address or hostname of the camera in the URL. For example, instead of "stream", y
Check the Domoticz logs for any error messages related to the camera. This may give you a clue as to what is causing the broken link image.

Consider asking for help on the Tasmota or Domoticz community forums, as there may be others who have successfully set up this type of camera with these platforms and can offer guidance or troubleshooting tips.
