Exploring Smart Doorbell Integration with LG TV

Hey everyone, I’m really excited to share my journey with integrating my Ubiquiti G4 doorbells with my LG OLED TV. It’s been a bit of a challenge, but I’m determined to figure this out!

So, here’s the deal: I have these two doorbells, and I want them to trigger my TV to show the video stream when someone rings the bell. I’ve managed to set up notifications, but getting the video to stream has been a hurdle. I’ve tried setting up automations, but I keep running into errors, especially in the action area. I’m not sure if it’s a compatibility issue or if I’m missing something in the setup.

I’ve read through some guides and forums, and it seems like others have had similar issues. I’m wondering if there’s a specific way to configure the TV or the doorbell settings to make this work seamlessly. Maybe I need to adjust the network settings or ensure both devices are on the same subnet?

I’d love to hear from anyone who has successfully integrated their smart doorbell with their TV. What steps did you take? Any tips or tricks would be invaluable! I’m also curious if there are any third-party apps or scripts that can help bridge the gap between the doorbell and the TV.

On a positive note, I’ve found that the doorbells themselves are pretty reliable, and the video quality is great. It’s just this integration with the TV that’s been a pain point. I’m hopeful that with some trial and error, I’ll get it sorted out.

Let’s keep the conversation going! If anyone has any insights or suggestions, I’m all ears. Thanks in advance for your help!
