Echo Support

Would love to see Sighthound start to integrate more. Echo Spot and Show now support cameras and I would like to integrate them. Thanks

Hello,

Well Sighthound can work with most cameras that follow the IP camera protocol. If echo supports that, then you should be able to try to connect to it using the internal IP of that camera. Please let us know if you are able to connect it. I'm not able to find too much information about its setup.

Let us know if there is anything else we can help with besides that.

Regards,
-Kevin

Would be nice if Sighthound would develop an Alexa Show skill -- there's not much to them, in the end they just pass back an RTSP URI for the Show / Spot to connect to.

In the meantime, I got mine working with the Monocle skill. My Echo Show did not like communicating directly with my Reolink cameras and I had to set up an RTSP proxy. I'm using live555 on a Raspberry Pi.
