really cool and informative! I am still new on my homelab journey. Just got some reolink camerasa and about to set them up tomorrow; as for the home assistant, i have to fix the mess my network is in, I have done so much to it while learning this hobby that I am afraid to mess with it haha
I’m sure you will love the Reolink cameras, they are awesome. Getting your home network operating properly is important, but make sure you enjoy the journey as typically there is never a fully “finished” state in this hobby as new and exciting things are always happening!
Great video, would you mind sharing your Yaml code please, specifically - I cant get my Snapshot Fluent feed to play on my Google hub. Only the main camera feed. Looks like youve cracked the code. Thank you!
As far I know that is correct that there isn’t any ability to do that natively in the native integration, but you can manage the auto quick reply right in home assistant. I don’t tend to use two way audio too much so I don’t find it to be a hassle to switch to the Reolink app. I’m not aware of any off hand that do that through a native integration, but I’ve never sought out that ability.

Thank you for the video
You're welcome! Thanks for watching
Unfortunately, there is still no two-way audio support in home assistants with this doorbell? :(

you did not say anything about the bell.
The mechanical chime that is in our house is bypassed. The chime that comes with this just gets plugged into an ordinary power outlet and “just works”
