Setup command doesn't work about hkcam

[brutella]

Replacing -db with -data_dir results in this:

You are right, you have to replace -db=... with -data_dir=.... I fixed the example in the readme in bc083d1.

But I can't see the camera inside HomeKit. What am I doing wrong here?

Did you add the camera to HomeKit as shown in the readme?

[Emstr]

Nope, the camera won't show up for me in HomeKit. I'm using a raspberry pi zero 2 w and the official raspberry pi camera. Any advice?

[brutella]

Is your Raspberry Pi connected to the same network as your iOS device? Also multicast has to be enabled in your network for hkcam to work.

i had to delete /data and restart with 0.1.0 to bring the camera back in home app under + add device

[Emstr]

I can see the camera in HomeKit, but when I try to connect I get an error on my iPhone: Unable to add accessory. Then I can no longer see the camera in HomeKit. definitely on the same wifi network and had no trouble using home bridge or other HomeKit devices.

Here's the logs from the RPI:

[brutella]

I can't see any errors in the logs, so the camera successfully paired with your iOS device.

Do you get any other errors on your iOS device which might help debug this issue?

[ApplebaumIan]

So I'm also having the same issue but I managed to get it to throw more errors as well.

This was after I deleted the data_dir and started again.
