Homekit Secure Video

Open TechRemarker opened this issue 5 years ago • 137 comments

In June, Apple announced the upcoming Homekit Secure Video feature where all video will also be backed up in iCloud. While I assume it will have to be finalized before we know for sure, but in theory will this plugin be able to support that, or do we think that feature will only work with manufacturer's working directly with Apple?

Yeah!!! That could be fantastic!

From the screenshots so far, it requires a certified device.

Count me in for interest on this.

Ok so here's my theory for why this isn't going toe implemented soon. When you submit feedback for HomeKit in the feedback app (beta OS testers), it asks if you are in the HomeKit Beta Program for either TV's or one other thing. So far HomeKit Secure Video is not an option, but it has always been updated as soon as a new HomeKit feature has been announced/Ready to Test. Routers aren't on there either so I guess it may be a while for it to be open. Maybe it will be limited to first party HomeKit accessories due to the "HomeKit Chip" to make it secure. Just a theory, but corrected me if I'm wrong or have any other plausible theories.

The latest HAP (Non-Commercial) documentation (R2) still has no reference to HomeKit Secure Video

By the way, I found there the on / off characteristics of the night mode for the camera. Is it possible to add, in the form of transmission via mqtt/http?

HAP does not support Secure Video yet. See here.

I had a theory that only 1st party HomeKit accessories (verified and certified ones) would only be getting support for HomeKit secure video, due to the HomeKit chip, (I don't know if all the cameras have the chip). But, Hap does seem to have added HKSV characteristics, but not the full back end or logic of it. I suggested in homebridge-video-doorbell to use the HomeKit accessory Simulator in the latest version of Xcode to see if the simulator could provide any tips.

Thank you for that link!

So what does it mean for this plugin and for us?

mikeavdeev avatar Jan 16 '20 17:01 mikeavdeev

@mikeavdeev That HomeKit Secure Video may be coming to this plugin, and we can view the past and notifications and get motion detection. Search up HomeKit Secure Video demo on YouTube or something and that's what we'd get.

iRayanKhan avatar Jan 17 '20 20:01 iRayanKhan

This is going to be amazing... we could get full functionality without the use of other workarounds for notifications etc., can't wait!

Vannixxo avatar Jan 17 '20 20:01 Vannixxo

This is really exciting.

Is this definitely an upcoming enhancement? If so, is there an eta as to when we’re likely to see it?
