Added webcam status capability

Open dcnoren opened this issue 3 years ago • 6 comments

Suggested PR which adds in webcam monitor capability if Teams is in a call, will check registry key to see if Teams is using the webcam. If it is, it will reflect "In a call - camera on". Otherwise, "In a call - camera off".

Likely needs testing and possibly a check on whether registry key is present or not to prevent errors.

Nice find :) What is your use case to distinguish between camera on or off?

If camera is on, door status light is red. If camera is off but teams is busy/in a meeting, status light yellow. Otherwise, green.

Let's family come in when green and ask questions. Come in but don't make noise when yellow. Don't come in when red since they'll be on camera.

If there's interest from others, I'm happy to add it to the master branch.

This would be great! I'd use mine to turn my color coded light off (the one in the office) and turn it to white so I don't look red on camera :) Great work & a big THANK YOU - I use this ALL DAY!

Any idea when / if this will be merged?

@tuffelh - not sure when @EBOOZ might decide to. Meanwhile, at least back from March, you could manually modify following these instructions: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/microsoft-teams-status/202388/61?u=dcnoren
