Nest Cam Motion Detect Stays Triggered

Open P77HLP opened this issue 8 years ago • 9 comments

Hey Guys,

Just wondering if anyone has the same issue? essentially motion is staying triggered even after an event, leaving the motion detect feature a bit useless, is there any way around this or to reset this?

Anyone figure out how to fix?

Same here. Constantly "Triggered" regardless of motion or not.

Maybe need to recreate a token without cameras since they are not really supported yet anyways.

Tried that.. completly deleted the current nest developer settings and then clicked on v3 read only.. not tried with read and write however. Also note there are 2 camera settings.. one with just view and one with view and image. tired both. Same things.. stays triggered.

I’ve noticed if you subscribe to Nest aware service, the triggers are correct and shut off when required. Looks like the free version of camera recording throws out movements and does not update “non movement” or stop triggered sensor but with nest aware, it is constantly updated, leading to triggers shutting off once there is no longer movement. Wonder if there is a way to fix this issue?

I have Nest aware but I still experience this problem with the motion stuck on triggered. I am seeing this problem with 2 of 3 cameras.

Update... installing ACTUAL NEST CAM USING: (THANKS TO KhaosT Instructions/pluginn and hard work!) Solves the triggered sensor issue..

Install ffmpeg Install this plugin using: npm install -g homebridge-nest-cam Edit config.json and add the camera. Run Homebridge Add extra camera accessories in Home app. The setup code is the same as homebridge. Config.json Example

{ "platform": "Nest-cam", "username": "", "password": "", "useOMX": false }
