Thanks!

So in that case the url should be http://ipaddres:8080/cgi-bin/snap.cgi

Somehow I can't get it working with that doorbell, already tried to disable the password of the webserver but that didn't seem te help. It can't connect. When I download the snapshot as jpeg to domoticz then it does work.

But if you can get to an image on the camera (jpg), then you can use that url.

I have Doorcam running, but I am moving some of my devices from Domoticz to Smartthings.
As I like to keep using Doorcam on Toon I am looking for an alternative solution to trigger a switch in Domoticz when the doorbell is pressed.
What solution are you using for that?

I also have this action doorbell and it works great. The url for the snapshot is user:pass@ip-adres:8080/cgi-bin/snap.cgi, this doesn't work on my toon.
Amy suggestions?

Interesting. Can you try without password like?:

-http://192.168.178.57:8080/cgi-bin/snap.cgi

did you check the url in chrome?

I do not have such camera but is seems that the chime trigger is 433Mhz so you need something to make that trigger also a wifi trigger. Perhaps a Wemos D1 and a 433Mhz receiver module? Then you can have a 433Mhz to wifi bridge and use the Tuya doorbells together with Toon and the original app. Also send images on Telegram and so on, so on..

Without password it doesn’t work, chrome works fine but with password.
I already have a trigger over wifi, also mqtt works to domoticz see https://github.com/guino/BazzDoorbell/issues/23 to trigger a dummy motion and/or push device.
So my push trigger in Domoticz is the one I use for the toon, is there a way to find out if the toon is getting this signal.
So is the problem the trigger or the image processing.

Wll you can check with the other app webcam if you can get images.... if you get images there it is not the cam but the trigger. Or if you click the doorcam tile you must see the image drom the cam after 1 or 2 seconds.

I added the door cam to Domoticz and used the Domoticz url for the webcam and that works fine.
Case closed and tanks for all your work.

@oepi-loepi,
since I have a new (second hand) Toon2 and trying to setup this the same way as Toon1 I encounter an issue for the doorcam app.
When app installed and I press no matter what which app Toon2 keeps going back to a previous screen in 3 seconds.
When removing the doorcam app everything works just normal.
Any ideas on this?

[oepi-loepi]

Yes, make sure you have a connection from toon to domoticz and make sure you have set all variables in domotics. If you look at the variables in domoticz you can see that the variable showdoorcamtoon is not set to 150. This has nothing to do with toon 2 but the connection to domoticz or the settings in toon. Make sure you have set the correct trigger parameter and trigger parameter name . This name is sensitive for CapiTals (hoofdletters).

Thanks for your input, checked the Doorcam app and found the issue.

DoorCam is a great app and it works like a charm, but I have one question: As far as I know, I need to have the DoorCam tile on my screen in order for it to work. But if if my tiles are rotating in dark-mode, the DoorCam tile with its white background is not really nice to see. Is there a way to change this or can DoorCam work in “invisible mode”?

for the last 2 days I receive a lot of notifications about a new version of the DoorCam App in the Toon store.
This morning 3 notifications, but there doesn’t seem to be a new version. How come?
