Anyone get Blue Iris working with Wyze 3 Beta Firmware that adds RTSP Support?

[Disabled Couple]

No luck, I keep messing with the settings.


I wondered if anyone else had luck?

Did you follow all the instructions they provided? The stream path in your screenshot does not even match what they said to use (although further down in their instructions they do omit the trailing / themselves so it is probably fine)

Sorry, Yes I tried with both, I just removed it in this example when I continued to test it.

I strarted with Wyze cameras 7 years ago but once I found BI and POE cameras, I dumped them an never looked back.
Here are the setting that I used in Blue Iris back then. They worked fair but I had lots of signal loss via WIFI.

I don't know what firmware I have but I have one from a few years ago as well and I had the same config settings as Broachoski minus the check for "Skip initial HTTP....".

I also agree that I had lots of WIFI singal loss Wyze. I also had issues where sometimes it wouldn't reconnect until I unplugged it, waited a minute, and then plugged it back in again. I finally gave on it and gave on them.

I also use POE now for anything critical but I do have a few WIFI cameras just to keep track of my cat and dog. Here are the ones I have (and still use today) if you want to return and try something different.

Tapo are similar to WYZE:

Tapo TP-Link C110

Tapo 2K QHD C120

Amcrest and EmpireTech are larger with Pan/Tilt:

Amcrest 841W (Little more expensive)

EmpireTech H4C (most expensive)

(edit) One more thing I will add. If just recording (not using motion triggers) the Wyze and Tapo are OK but if you are using Motion triggers in BI then they aren't the best because the I-frames don't match the FPS. In the Amcrest and EmpireTech you can configure those.

Yeah Tapo c120's is amazing outside the bloody 2.4ghz limit again and I use it also. Just wanted to recycle these old Wyze v3's as they came out with RTSP support in the new beta firmware i linked.

Sadly everyone here using the unofficial firmware it seems from the community, where I was hoping someone was using the new beta ones from the devs.

Thanks for everyone's advice though

Just wanted to say they released this now for beta so you don't need to use a sdcard, etc to access the camera's to add rtsp support. Crazy enough I can load up it fine in VLC, but not blue iris 6.0.013 or whatever the new one was 2 days ago... Was hoping once went into normal beta it would work but nothing....

I've got the same problem. Just a few days ago I loaded up the new firmware that enables RTSP on the v3 cams, and I'm having the same problem adding one into Blue Iris. Changing the protocol to RTSP doesn't make a difference; changing the URL to match what the camera tells me in the WYZE app doesn't work, either. I'm still working on it, and will try to come back and update this if/when I get it working.

Amcrest ASH-21 cameras are cheap, have both Wifi and Ethernet, Pan and Tilt, and work fine with BI.

The official instructions from Wyze still point to the How to flash your Wyze Cam firmware manually page, which still says it requires an SD card:

It requires additional knowledge and devices, including a microSD card, microSD card adapter, and a computer with an SD card slot.

Did you find a way to install that does not require an SD card?
