A Python proxy that lets non-Ubiquiti RTSP-enabled cameras appear as native cameras in UniFi Protect NVR. It supports live streaming, full-time recording, motion detection, and Frigate-based smart detections.

Use cases

  • add existing RTSP cameras to UniFi Protect
  • view third-party cameras in the UniFi mobile app
  • record non-Ubiquiti cameras full-time in UniFi NVR
  • get smart detections from cheap cameras via Frigate
  • integrate ONVIF cameras into UniFi ecosystem

When to choose

  • you use UniFi Protect but own non-Ubiquiti RTSP cameras
  • you want one unified UI and mobile app for all cameras
  • you want motion or Frigate smart detections on unsupported cameras

When to avoid

  • you don't run UniFi Protect / UniFi NVR
  • you need a standalone NVR without UniFi hardware
  • your camera lacks RTSP support
