The volume and play/pause controls will show up on the Remote app or Control Center. If your TV supports volume control through Home Assistant, you will be able to control the volume using the side volume buttons on the device while having the remote selected on screen.

|
||||
#### Camera video is not streaming
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure that the [`ffmpeg`](/integrations/ffmpeg) integration is configured correctly. Verify that your stream is directly playable with `ffplay <stream_source>` or [VLC Media Player](https://www.videolan.org/). If you have changed your camera's entity configuration, you may need to [reset the accessory](#resetting-accessories).
|
||||
|
||||
#### Camera audio is not streaming
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure `support_audio` is `True` in the camera's entity configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
#### HomeKit stalls or devices respond slowly with many cameras
|
||||
|
||||
HomeKit updates each camera snapshot sequentially when there are multiple cameras on a bridge. The HomeKit update methodology can lead to the app stalling or taking a while to update. To avoid this problem, limit each `HomeKit Bridge` to 6 cameras and create a new `HomeKit Bridge` for additional cameras.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Resetting accessories
|
||||
|
||||
On Home Assistant `0.97.x` or later, you may use the service `homekit.reset_accessory` with one or more entity_ids to reset accessories whose configuration may have changed. This can be useful when changing a media_player's device class to `tv`, linking a battery, or whenever Home Assistant adds support for new HomeKit features to existing entities.
