    Hi.

    I have a hard time to find a small wifi cam for my Duet... Mostly they only have Rtsp stream but no mjpeg or they are expensive...

    So is there maybe a plugin to integrate the rtsp stream? I have a Tapo C100...

      Not that I'm aware of and from what I gather browsers no longer even allow RTSP streams.

      My suggestion is a Raspberry Pi Zero W and camera module running MotionOS.

        As @Phaedrux says, it would likely be quicker and cheaper to go the Pi Zero route. I have found that motionOS can be a bit heavy and use lots of CPU although this does seem to vary a lot between users. I had that experience and instead use this as a lightweight streaming solution with the Pi camera. Of course - I run other things on the Pi. If you are just using it for serving up images then it will not matter.

        Another alternative is an RTSP to MJPEG "converter". Depending on your platform, programing experience, and tolerance for time (noting that almost nothing works as described in google searches 🙂 ) - something like one of these approaches may be interesting.
