MotionEye COMPLETE TUTORIAL: Installation, Configuration & Home Assistant Web Hooks

Maybe you have several cameras from different brands that you want to put in one place and you want to record movies or pictures continuously or when motion is detected. Well, you came to the right place I will show you how you can do all of that with #MotionEye on #Raspberry #Pi or any other linux device.

I will show you two ways of installing MotionEye both are kind of universal as you can use them for ARM or x86 processors.

The first method is very easy by using Docker and the second is even easier, but it requires Home Assistant. You can choose which one is more suitable for you.

Then I will show you how you can add cameras in MotionEye and how to configure and use the most important options.

The final part will be configuring an automation in Home Assistant so when motion is detected a notification will be sent using web hooks.

So let’s go:
