Cannot Connect ESP-32 Cam to MotionEyeOS

[chmod92]

Hello,

I've configured 2 ESP-32 Cams and connected them to the network. They are working and I can see the live stream.

Guide I followed:
https://www.instructables.com/A-Super-Easy-Security-Camera-With-the-ESP32-CAM/

I connect to my Raspberrypi3 running MotioneyeOS (it has a USB webcam added already) and I keep getting "Empty reply from server" or "Camera not supported" when trying to connect to the ESP32 cams.

I'm not sure what I'm entirely doing wrong. When trying to connect the cams I've tried the following URLs in MotioneyeOS:

http://192.168.4.33/
http://192.168.4.33:80/
http://192.168.4.33/cam
http://192.168.4.33/stream/1
http://192.168.4.33/stream
http://192.168.4.33:80/cam
http://192.168.4.33:80/stream/1
http://192.168.4.33:80/stream

and same thing for the second camera

I've also tried connecting through Network camera and Simple MJPEG Camera and that didn't work either.

I've seen a few guides that say to set up home assistant, do i need to do that? can it connect without it?

Any help is appreciated.

Can you open the stream using VLC?

I will test tomorrow once I'm able to access the cameras. They are at a relatives house.

I would suggest you have a look at https://github.com/espressif/esp-who/tree/master/examples/single_chip/camera_web_server and try that
