Enable FFMPEG Camera

To enable your surveillance camera, you must have your Raspberry Pi Camera already connected to your Pi. To start it, simply run sudo systemctl enable raspicam.service and sudo systemctl start raspicam.service. To view your security camera, head over to Home Assistant, and enable the "Configurator" addon in Supervisor. Once that's enabled, click on the addon, then click on the folder icon. Choose configuration.yaml, and add these lines in

camera:

- platform: ffmpeg

name: SmartDisplayPi

input: tcp://localhost:9000

Restart Home Assistant once you are finished.
