The MJPEG IP Camera integration allows you to integrate IP cameras which are capable to stream their video with MJPEG (Motion JPEG) into Home Assistant.

Prerequisites

To use this integration, you will need to at least have the video streaming URL for your camera. If you don't know it, you could try to look it up in the iSpy Camera Connection Database.

{% include integrations/config_flow.md %}

{% configuration_basic %} MJPEG URL: description: The URL your camera serves the video on, e.g., http://192.168.1.21:2112/ Still Image URL: description: The URL for thumbnail picture (if the camera support that). Username: description: The username for accessing your camera. Password: description: The password for accessing your camera. Verify SSL: description: Validate the SSL certificate for this camera. {% endconfiguration_basic %}

This integration support both basic and digest authentication, which one to use is automatically detected when using a username and password.
