This post couldn't have come at a more perfect time. I recently got a call from a client who couldn't access their Unifi Cameras remotely anymore. Apparently the EOL for the self-hosted Unifi Video was was announced last year.

And the replacement solution is no longer self-hosted and is a hardware solution that costs a few hundred dollars to keep the system up to date.

Careful with that. Ubiquiti doesn’t support ONVIF (industry standard for triggering motion alerts) and stopped supporting RTSP on their new stuff IIRC.

You’re going to want to do a ton of testing if you’re keeping those cameras.

TY for letting me know. So basically the customers are locked in with Ubiquiti or will have to replace their cameras if I want to use ONVIF and RTSP.
