v4.6.2-beta.2 Pre-release
Pre-release

This is an experimental pre-release. It bundles 10 upstream eufy-security-client changes that are still awaiting merge in bropat's repository. We're shipping them early via a scoped fork so users can benefit now and report issues.

Things may break. If you encounter problems, please open an issue with your diagnostics — your feedback helps us validate these changes before they land upstream.

What changed

This release switches the underlying eufy-security-client library to a scoped fork (@homebridge-eufy-security/eufy-security-client) that includes the following fixes and features:

New device support

  • NVR S4 Max (T8N00) — initial device registration
  • PoE Bullet-PTZ Cam S4 (T8E00) — full device support with livestream, talkback, pan & tilt
  • LOCK_85V0 (T85V0) — registered in DeviceProperties and DeviceCommands maps

Streaming & audio fixes

  • ADTS multi-RDB frame normalization — fixes garbled audio on cameras that send multiple ADTS frames per P2P packet
  • E340 on MiniBase Chime — no longer sends unsupported livestream command that caused stream failures
  • Indoor cameras on HomeBase — correctly routes livestream through the right path
  • Configurable P2P stream timeouts — stream start/stop timeouts are now tuneable

Other fixes

  • ECDH encryption for T8214 and T8425 — fixes P2P session establishment on these devices
  • SoloCam E42 rtspStreamUrl — adds missing RTSP stream URL property
  • Missing GenericTypeProperty labels — 5 device types now show proper names

How to install

npm install @homebridge-plugins/homebridge-eufy-security@beta

Or update via the Homebridge UI using the beta channel.

Reverting

If this release causes issues, downgrade to the previous beta:

npm install @homebridge-plugins/homebridge-eufy-security@4.6.2-beta.1

Pre-release

New beta branch started from 4.6.1. No functional changes — version bump only.

v4.6.1

Bug Fixes

  • Keypad devices: The plugin UI no longer shows an "Enable in HomeKit" toggle for keypads. Keypads cannot be exposed to HomeKit, so the toggle was misleading. The keypad card now displays a "Not available for HomeKit" badge instead.

Release Notes

Required actions

  • Node.js 20, 22, or 24 required (unchanged from 4.5.x)
  • No config changes required -- all new features use sensible defaults

HomeKit Secure Video (HKSV) -- Major reliability overhaul

HKSV recordings should now work consistently across restarts and on a wider range of cameras.

  • Recordings no longer silently disappear after a plugin restart -- a bug was clearing HKSV state on every boot, requiring users to re-enable recording in the Home app
  • Motion-triggered P2P pre-warming connects to the camera before HomeKit requests the recording, eliminating cold-start timeouts
  • 4-second video prebuffer on wired P2P cameras -- HKSV timeline clips now include footage from before the motion trigger
  • Proper end-of-stream signaling so HomeKit no longer silently discards completed recordings
  • Cameras that don't deliver audio (e.g. SoloCam E42) now fall back to video-only recording instead of hanging
  • FFmpeg errors during recording close no longer crash the child bridge

Audio

  • Per-camera audio toggle -- new setting in the plugin UI to disable audio on individual cameras (useful for cameras with poor audio or for privacy)
  • Fixed AAC decoding on cameras that send non-standard ADTS frames with multiple raw data blocks (e.g. SoloCam E42)
  • Rewritten two-way audio with dynamic SDP and proper lifecycle management

Livestream stability

  • Hardware H.264 encoder auto-detection (e.g. on Raspberry Pi)
  • P2P connection retry with exponential backoff on transient failures
  • H.264 profile and level from HomeKit are now passed through to the encoder
  • RTCP grace period for dead-stream detection to avoid false positives on slow starts
  • Snapshots and livestreams share a P2P session, preventing one from terminating the other

New device support (prep)

Device images and UI mappings added; full functionality pending upstream eufy-security-client support:

  • NVR S4 Max (T8N00, type 300)
  • PoE Bullet-PTZ Cam S4 (T8E00, type 301)
  • Battery Doorbell 2K -- added missing device image

Diagnostics

  • Debug recording capture -- when debug livestream is enabled, the plugin saves raw P2P and processed recordings downloadable from the Diagnostics UI, tagged by trigger type (HKSV vs manual livestream)
  • Fixed diagnostics archive corruption when logs were being written during export

v4.5.1

03 Mar 18:11

What's in 4.5.1

  • Cloud connection retries up to 3 times instead of crashing on first failure
  • Captcha and 2FA prompts now direct to the plugin UI
  • Encrypted diagnostics with debug livestream recording and per-camera logs
  • Improved diagnostics flow — now required when filing bug reports
  • PKCS1 toggle auto-hidden when Node.js supports it natively
  • Faster device discovery
  • Added missing device images

What's in 4.5.x

Upgrades eufy-security-client to 3.8.0 — new device support and livestream fixes.

Node.js 24.5+ Recommended

Node.js 24.5.0 restores native RSA_PKCS1_PADDING support — P2P livestreams work without workarounds. If you're on 24.5+, remove enableEmbeddedPKCS1Support from your config. Only keep it if you're staying on Node 20 or 22.

New Device Support (eufy-security-client 3.8.0)

  • Smart Locks: E20, C33, C30, E330
  • Cameras: S40, SoloCam E42, 4G LTE Cam S330, Indoor Camera C220 V3
  • Sensors: Motion Sensor E20, Siren E20

Bug Fixes & Improvements

  • Fixed T8214 and T8425 livestream issues (floodlight/doorbell devices)
  • C210 preset support improvements
  • Add 4G LTE Cam S330 (T86P2) device image
  • Use native tar.gz compression for diagnostics instead of zip-lib

Thanks to everyone who tested the beta.
