    UPDATE: Getting a live view with a button press from a Eufy doorbell does not work.
    I reached out to Eufy to troubleshoot this and they responded with this...
    "We appreciate your support in Eufy. Please rest assured that we always stand behind our products, sorry for any disappointment, please note that the feature "Auto Live Streaming: When someone rings the Doorbell, a real-time video of the doorbell will display on the device with Alexa" is not supported. We've consulted with Amazon via email about this issue and their reply is 'Not Support'."

      wow! that's the main reason why I bought the echo show. if they don't support the live stream on the echo show, why have they got all the functionality listed on their Alexa app. I think it's time to return my echo show :-(

    • @mjuddin8162
      @mjuddin8162 3 роки тому

      I'm not sure why but the live stream (annoyingly) IS supported on the Amazon Fire TV stick. So when the doorbell rings, whatever I'm watching gets interrupted.

      I invested a lot in Eufy ecosystem, with a doorbell and many 2C cameras; that's disappointing. Let us know if this changes anytime soon.

    Is it possible that it will automatically show on the echo when motion is detected on the ring? Thanks for the video.

  • @jredford88
    @jredford88 3 роки тому +6

    Thanks Steve! Eufy doorbells can automatically show live view now? I thought it had to be asked manually...and it's SLLLLLOOOOOWWWW at buffering.
    My only gripe with cam doorbells, by the time they load up, the person has usually left..

  • @cesarmoreno891
    @cesarmoreno891 3 роки тому +17

    To stream Eufy live view, you need to make a routine when doorbell is pressed. Use a customized action saying “show (name of) doorbell” on whichever echo device you choose. You can also do a separate routine with a custom wait command after doorbell press to end live view, custom action saying similar to “stop live view.” Only downside, besides the already long latency with the more affordable model cameras, is it can only live view to one echo device.

    If I had known the feature "Auto Live Streaming: When someone rings the Doorbell, a real-time video of the doorbell will display on the device with Alexa" is not supported, I wouldn't have bought it.
    My devices have been having trouble with latency issues since 2021. My Alexa Echo Show 8 used to make an announcement when the Eufy Video Doorbell 2K was pressed / detected emotions, or it showed on the screen that "someone is at the door". Now the Alexa stops doing that altogether. Having tried many tips online, I couldn't find a solution. Appreciate your input.

    Using the Nest Doorbell + Alexa Show 10, I do not see where the notifications you were talking about appears in the Alexa app. I can tell Alexa to show "front door" But I can not see how to get it to go on automatically when someone rings the doorbell. Perhaps you can try it and make a video showing how this can be done.

    How do you get it show automatically on the echo show. I have to say Alexa show me the front door camera? I would like it to just come straight on the screen, that way if it's someone I don't want to answer to, they haven't just heard me ask Alexa to show who is there 🤣

    Great video, can ALEXA show you the doorbell camera, ( in my case EUFY 2K WIRELESS ) and TURN ON the MIC so that i can have a 2-way conversation with who is at the door?

    I think it would be a helpful video if you moved slow enough to follow. You need to remember people are looking at a computer screen then trying to find these things on their phone and press buttons. I'm half way through the video and have backed up and paused about ten times. I suggest you cover the same things but make the video about 15 minutes instead of 4. Moving on to someone else.

    8 seconds between pushing doorbell button to showing up on the Echo Shows is really slow. Nest Hello with Hub displays is way quicker than that.
