Thingino: Open-Source Firmware for IP Cameras

Re:Thingino: Open-Source Firmware for IP Cameras by 1024core on Tuesday August 05, 2025 @12:39AM (#44794399)

What does the firmware do, practically? Can I use the firmware on my Wyze cameras as a drop-in replacement? Will the cameras still talk to the Wyze app?

I guess my question is: from a practical viewpoint, what do I get with this firmware (other than that it is open and all that, which I totally appreciate).

Thingino is a replacement of the stock firmware. But you obviously lose the ability to use vendor's cloud. Because if you still want to use the subscription service, why would you need to replace the stock firmware?

A typical camera has a certain functionality: remote monitoring, alerting on events, etc.

How would I, a random user, go about getting this functionality with Thingino?
