I had a working automation that downloads mp4 videos via the Blink integration and it ceased working on April 29, 2025, which I can see because that is the last timestamp for the videos folder.
I can get the following to work and download the .jpg using Dev Tools:
action: blink.trigger_camera
target:
entity_id: camera.front_path
action: camera.snapshot
target:
entity_id: camera.front_path
data:
filename: www/my_image.jpg
But the following does nothing and nothing informative in the logs:
action: blink.save_recent_clips
target:
entity_id: camera.front_path
data:
file_path: www/
action: blink.save_video
data:
filename: www/test.mp4
target:
entity_id: camera.front_path
Log entry when above action performed:
2025-08-24 11:53:03.550 WARNING (MainThread) [blinkpy.camera] Video clip URL not available: self.clip=None
2025-08-24 11:53:03.550 ERROR (MainThread) [blinkpy.camera] No saved video exists for Front Path.
Anyone else have this working or have a tip?
