    I really enjoyed your Hoobs videos. I just started playing around with Hoobs and got my Nest doorbell and thermostat to work on Apple Home. I hope you will consider doing more Hoobs videos - specifically, accessories (lights, switches, outlets) that may not have a plugin inside Hoobs. Keep up the good work!

    Your video is excellent and I was able to add my older Nest cameras. I also have a new Google Nest doorbell (battery) that doesn't show up as it is only accessible through the Google Home app. Is it possible to add this app to control the new doorbell camera? I haven't had any luck. Thanks!

    • @tech_craft

      Thanks.
      My understanding is that the battery-powered doorbells are not currently supported. If and when this changes I'll post an update.

    Could you also do the Eufy Doorbell as well! Many thanks!

    Thanks for this. Is there a Hoobs solution for the new Nest Cam Outdoor/Indoor cameras? Thanks.

    • @tech_craft

      Nothing yet as far as I can tell. There's an open issue on the plugin that's tracking the state of the support for these newer Nest cams: github.com/Brandawg93/homebridge-nest-cam/issues/440

    Hello Rob, Excellent Video! Thank you. Do know if this plug in will work with the battery powered Goodle/Nest doorbell? My undersatnding/experiance is no :-(

    • @tech_craft

      My understanding is the same as yours unfortunately. Hopefully this will change in the near future!

    Do you know that if you use a nest doorbell cam with HomeKit via hoobs if it will ring on home pods?

    Hi, When attempting to link to google account, I get an error "Access blocked: Nest’s request is invalid" I can not find any help document to overcome this error.

    • @tech_craft
      @tech_craft  Рік тому +1

      It appears that Google has blocked off the login method used in the video. There's an issue tracking this here: github.com/chrisjshull/homebridge-nest/issues/575

    Rob how do these devices get on between google assistant and apple home with hoobs? To the point I’ve found it best to avoid crossing the streams. Do you find the systems war with each other over room definition etc?

    • @tech_craft
      @tech_craft  2 роки тому

      I don’t have GA but I’ve seen problems similar to this with Alexa and Home. In the end, I’ve just made Home my source of truth and decided to focus on that configuration.

    After installing plug in/config, there is no option to sign into nest account . Suggestions?

    In Homekit the doorbell camera only gave streaming image once or twice, but it showed unavailable soon after and I cannot get it to stream again. All switches are on. Bridge is restarted, didn't help either. Streaming is working in Nest app and in the Homebridge desktop it is showing me an image, not a black screen

      Are you running on the Hoobs box or on your own hardware? Which version of Hoobs?

  • @damionrandolph750
    @damionrandolph750 2 роки тому

    I was able to connect Nest Cam to Hoobs. However, I'm not getting any motion notifications or alerts in the HomeKit app? Are you experiencing the same?

    • @tech_craft
      @tech_craft  2 роки тому

      I don't have a Nest Cam to test, but I do know that you have to explicitly enable notifications for each camera inside the Home app.

    I have hoobs 4. Am I able to record HSV (like my other native HK Cameras) with a nest cam? And because I have hoobs, do I still need to pay for a nest account? Or can I stop paying for nest? Thanks again man!

    • @tech_craft
      @tech_craft  2 роки тому

      There's an open issue tracking HKSV for the Nest Cam plugin here: github.com/Brandawg93/homebridge-nest-cam/issues/464
      Seems like they are getting close!

    Cheers
    thanks for the videos
    I start with this HOOBS
    I followed your steps and both my nets cameras and my first generation nest thermostat were installed
    but in less than an hour the cameras stopped being seen and in less time the thermostat stopped working in homekit
    I did not find a solution to be able to make it work
    my next step was to return HOOBS to factory settings and delete everything
    both in the homekit app
    I did and followed your instructions again and it worked again
    just for a while it disconnected again
    What can I do, am I doing something wrong?
    in HOOBS things work very well, the cameras and the thermostat
    I hope you can help me
    I want to explain how my internet is
    I have my router from the internet company, that is connected to a TP system, link mesh DECO
    there I have a dnns modem, streamlocator that directs to the united states and the connected HOOBS
    I don't know if that is causing me a problem
    I really appreciate your time and help.
    my best wishes jaime
    an apology for my english

    Any advice for dealing with the blank pop up problem when trying to link account? Block pop ups off, multiple browsers.

      Do you have any ad blocking running that could interfere with the Google domains?

    So when you say multiple bridges you mean one hoobs device with multiple brides or "links" on the device, is that fair to say?

    I just received my Hoobs today and have installed many plugins without issue. Now, I'm trying to install the Nest Cam plugin, and when I click Install, I see the first text in the script shows "unable to find plugin", which is the end message I receive as well. Is this plugin still available?

    • @tech_craft
      @tech_craft  2 роки тому

      Hmm. It is, in fact I just helped a friend do his install a few days ago. Is it possible you're getting some ad blocking on your network/device?

    Simple explainer - giving me more reason to consider a Hoobs bridge device. Curious is this will work with the battery operated version of the doorbell.

    • @tech_craft
      @tech_craft  2 роки тому +2

      I believe it doesn’t work with the battery-powered doorbell I’m afraid.

    • @ckhepworth

      I can’t get it to work with my battery or wired second generation nest products.

    • @othmerk
      @othmerk 2 роки тому +1

      I just learned that the hard way yesterday. Since the new nest doorbell battery doesn't show up in the nest app, only the google home app, this plugin can't see it. I hope the developer updates this, or someone makes a plugin for the google home app exclusive devices
