Generic Camera not working

Hi,

I have a RPi B+ serving a picture from the Pi Cam.
I can access the picture via web browser easily and as expected under the following url: http://10.5.0.53:8080/bwtdisplay.jpg.

I have configured the generic ip camera integration as follows:

camera:
  - platform: generic
    still_image_url: http://10.5.0.53:8080/bwtdisplay.jpg
    verify_ssl: false

All I can see in the overview is the name of the camera with the status “idle” next to it. When I click on the camera, a frame with the camera name is shown but nothing else.

If I add a name attribute to the camera, it is not recognized.

What am I doing wrong?

BR,
Ck
