Will the rtsp firmware be updated anytime soon? I love my cams and I would love to keep them updated, but I also use Home Assistant and need to keep them running with HA.
Please Wyze team, release the official FW with RTSP inside!

The reason it is not included in the official firmware is the RTSP portion is too large. They had to make a separate firmware for the people who wanted RTSP but the drawback was it would be updated less frequently and would not get many new options due to those size constraints.
RTSP is just a couple lines of protocol in a 128 megs of memory. The reason there is no update is because with it you’re not locked into their ecosystem (like apple). It’s a business model, not a memory issue. But honestly, I can’t tell the difference except that I’m able to view wyze cams on my PC now. Trying to review footage in the app will almost certainly result in a android device being flung against a wall or out into the woods here, so I avoid it as much as possible.
But hey, who cares about RTSP when you can have a fitbit and a scale…
The limited RAM in the cam is the issue, I equated that with too large, here is the actual post I was remembering.
