Hey @in_the_woods,

Not for this one, as far as I know. We are, however, planning to add Apple Secure Video compatibility to a few of our other upcoming products, such as those at CES and you may have been thinking about either our door locks or our doorbells.

Our teams are making progress on creating new models that support the features, but support is currently limited.

Hey @KuroPhoenix,

That is the first image I have seen for a black version. For now, I believe that it is limited to white. 

It may be different in the UK, since each region can have different products and models, but for the US, I have only seen the white version.

For more information on non-US products, you would need to visit our global community: https://community.tp-link.com/en

  @MF_Foodeater,

I do not believe that you are able to change the codec specifically. You may, however, consider exploring the RTSP and ONVIF features of the camera if you have not already. The camera's do not have a web interface, however their video streams can be accessed on your network after enabling the camera account feature in the Tapo App.

I have never used Scrypted, but if it is using your TP-Link Account, you may be better off trying to use the local network streams. There are also two different streams available via RTSP, one that is full quality and a sub stream with a lesser quality. I am not sure about the codecs you are aiming for, or if the two streams provide different codecs, but it may be an easier route to explore.

Out of curiosity, what codecs are you looking for, or what does Apple Home Support?

Hey @Roller12345,

Not directly, you would need to look for specifically a Sub-G compatible camera, such as the C420/400. Essentially the Sub-G cameras will communicate with the hub for event detection and automation over Sub-G, while the camera and video feed will still pass through your Wi-Fi to get to the hub for processing and recording.

Is there a specific aspect that you are looking to use the hub for? As a wired camera, it does support RTSP and ONVIF so you could store the video on an NVR or other storage solution instead of Tapo Care, if the onboard storage is the key concern.
